Line Follower Robot Circuit without Microcontroller or Arduino
In this article I have explained a simple line follower robot circuit, also known as line tracker vehicle, using just a couple of op amps from the IC LM324 and a few other components, without using complex Arduino or microcontrollers. It means this project can be built without any coding, just by using discrete components, […]
5 Watt Stereo Amplifier Circuit with Bass Treble Controls
A complete, self-contained, small and compact Hi-Fi stereo amplifier circuit with bass, treble, volume control is presented in the following article. This small compact stereo amplifier can be used for amplifying music from mobile phones, computer USB, Ipod or any source capable of producing as low as 50 millivolt signal. Due to the high bass […]
LM4862 Amplifier Circuit – A Better LM386 Alternative
The LM386 based amplifier is still very popular as one of the smallest sized amplifier chips. However, the LM386 is not perfect and has a few drawbacks and limitations. As shown below, the LM386 works with large electrolytic capacitors, which makes it bulkier and costlier, and causes it to be prone to distortions with age. […]

For anyone who is searching for an audio amplifier with massive output power in the order of 100 watt to 200 watts, using an absolute minimum parts count, this particular circuit will accomplish it. How the Circuit Works The IC OPA541 from Burr-Brown is a power opamp is specially designed to work from power supplies […]
Listen to UHF and SHF (GHz) Bands with this Simple Circuit
This simple two IC circuit can be used for capturing and listening to frequencies in the GHz range. Receivers designed to cover frequencies as high as several gigahertz (which is many thousand MHz!) are generally difficult to find, specifically for anyone who is looking for cheap versions of these gadgets. However, it may be possible […]
