In this post we try to investigate what transducers are and how they need to be configured in circuits while using them in a given application Understanding Piezo Transducers A piezo transducer is a device primarily used for converting an applied frequency to audible sound. It may be compared to a loud speaker, the only […]

No complex wiring, no costly MOSFETS and no cumbersome heatsinks, yet a powerful 200+200 watt stereo amplifier circuit, which can be built within hours using just a couple ICs, right in your home. Yes we are discussing the state-of-the-art thick film hybrid IC STK4050II, by SANYO.The IC is specifically designed for amplifying music at an […]
Earthquake Sensor Circuit [Seismic Sensor]
The article shows an earthquake sensor circuit idea which incorporates an innovative way of detecting the minutest of shocks caused by a possible earthquake tremor. The circuit is so sensitive that it is able to detect tremor of 4 on the Richter scale, yet remains unaffected to loud sounds or irrelevant bangs or noises. Introduction […]
How to Check a MOSFET Using a Digital Multimeter
In this post I have explained how to test mosfets using multimeter through a set of steps, which will show help you to accurately learn the good or faulty condition of a mosfet Mosfets are Efficient but Complex Devices MOSFETs are outstanding devices when it comes to amplifying or switching of various kinds of loads. […]
Timer based Water Level Controller Circuit
The explained circuit of a water level controller circuit is based on a adjustable timer circuit whose time delay is first adjusted to match the filling time of the tank, as the the tank fills, the timer delay also simultaneously lapses and its output switches OFF the water pump. Circuit Specifications Actually the circuit was […]
