3 Watt LED Datasheet
In the following post I have explained the main technical features and specifications of 3 watt white LEDs. I have explained more regarding their operating parameters and safe-operating limitations. Main Features Extreme luminosity capability Extreme working life > 50K hours. Very Low thermal resistance. SMD technology allows embedded PCB type sodering. Completely UV free design Enhanced ESD protections Image Courtesy – https://www.led-display.cc/High-Power-LED/Q1B/LP5W-80-SERIES:-5-watt-high-power-LED.jpg […]
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 […]
What is Hysteresis in Electronic Circuits
You might have searched regarding what is hysteresis a number of times through many different posts on different websites, but to no avail. You might have also tried to find a comprehensive as well as an easy explanation regarding the same through various websites. However, the explanations provided over these websites are pretty long and […]
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 […]
Remote Controlled Toy Car using 433 MHz Remote Modules
This circuit will enable reverse-forward, left-right control of a toy car through 433 MHz RF remote control modules or any similar RF remote modules. The market may be full of these hi-end remote controlled toy cars, but for a hobbyists making one at home can be entirely a different experience. The article below explains how to configure […]
