In this article we investigate a electronic circuit design which works like a conventional fuse for safeguarding any electrical system from overloads, over-current, short circuit and related fire hazards. However, the main advantage of this electronic fuse is that it does not require frequent replacements like mechanical fuses, instead it can be reset with a […]

BEL188 Transistor – Specification and Datasheet
The transistor 188 is one of my favorites, simply because even being so tiny it’s able to handle currents as high as 1 Amp. Understanding BEL188 Transistor Specification/Datasheet The transistor BEL188 is a general purpose transistor, and due to its wide voltage and current rating can be used for almost all small to medium power […]
Astable Multivibrator Circuit Using NAND Gates
An astable multivibrator is referred to an electronic configuration which is able to generate continuous alternate high and low pulses from a couple of outputs, operating in tandem. Why IC 4093 You might have well come across such astable circuits using a couple of transistors, a couple of capacitors and a few resistors.However more simpler […]
How to Make 1 A Constant Current LED Driver Circuit
In this article I have explained a simple 1 amp constant current LED driver circuit using the IC MBI6651 from MACROBLOCK. The IC has been specifically designed for operating high power LEDs safely by providing a constant current output. The circuit includes very few external components and therefore becomes very easy to assemble at home. […]
Cheap Semi Automatic, Tank Water Over Flow Controller Circuit
The circuit presented here monitors the level of the water rising inside a tank and automatically switches OFF the pump motor as soon as the water level reaches the brim of the tank. The proposed tank water overflow controller circuit is a semi automatic device because it can only sense an overfill and switch OFF […]
