In this article we study the microwave sensor IC KMY 24 and try to understand its main features and its pinout implementation details. How Doppler Sensor KMY24 Works The KMY24 microwave sensor module is designed and built on the concept of Doppler effect. When correctly configured it radiates a low power microwave signal of around […]

Blinking 3 LEDs (R,G,B) Sequentially Using Arduino Circuit
In this post I have explained how to run or blink three LEDs in sequence using Arduino. The post was written and submitted by: Jack Franko PROGRAM/* make RGB LEDs to blink in series one by one at intervalof 1000MS */ int R = 12;int G = 11;int B = 10;void setup(){ pinMode(R,OUTPUT); pinMode(G,OUTPUT); pinMode(B,OUTPUT);}void […]
Light Activated Water Level Controller Circuit
The light activated water level controller circuit explained here has the advantage of being corrosion free and much reliable than the traditional moisture sensor type of water sensors. Circuit Operation One slight downside of this LDR based sensor is that the tank interior always needs to be illuminated by some kind of light source such […]
Differential Temperature Detector/Controller Circuit
The circuit identifies and detects the temperature difference between two sensors and activates a relay when the temperature is not identical on these differently positioned sensors. By: Manisha Patel It’ll also enable you to detect a difference in temperature, although the temperature sensing devices can be set are discretely, using a potentiometer. Operational Details To […]
Sequential Timer Circuit using Transistors
In this post I have explained to make a simple sequential timer generator circuit which can be used for getting a sequential triggering of a connected load, or can be simply used like a sequential LED bar graph effect generator, using only transistors. The idea was requested by Mr Babusan. Technical Specifications Is it possible […]
Water Flow Valve Timer Controller Circuit
The article details about an automatic water flow controller timer circuit which switches a valve mechanism ON/OFF as per a set predetermined timing sequence. The idea was requested by Mr. John Clarke. Technical Specifications I’ve seen your site and designs and wondered if you could help with a controller I’m trying to design to control […]
