XL6009 is a DC-DC switching regulator IC, and we use it where lower voltage DC has to be lifted higher, or sometimes changed other ways, boost, buck-boost, flyback, even inverting, all that is possible depending how outside parts are connected. Why XL6009 is More Efficient Than Linear Regulators It is not like old regulator types […]

How to Use IC LM393 as a Current Controller Circuit
In this post we will understand a current controller and current limiter circuit using the IC LM393 comparator. This circuit is using a low power voltage comparator integrated circuit LM393 and one power Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor, so the idea is simple but the working looks a little deep when we see it […]
EV Wireless Battery Charger Calculator Tool
This calculator helps estimate resonant frequency or compensation capacitor for a wireless EV charging primary coil. It is for first-step design and learning, not final tuning… Calculator by homemade-circuits.com EV Wireless LC Resonance Calculator EV Wireless LC Resonance Calculator Calculate: Resonant Frequency (Hz)Capacitance (µF)Inductance (µH) First Value: Primary Inductance µHCapacitance µFFrequency Hz Second Value: Primary […]
220V AC to 12V DC Flyback SMPS Circuit using IC 555 (7555)
This practical flyback SMPS circuit uses ICM7555 as the main oscillator, and yep the whole idea is to take 220V AC mains directly then convert it into isolated low voltage DC through a ferrite transformer.. Unlike many PWM controller designs, here we have very few parts but still it gives mains isolation, voltage feedback, current […]
Make this EV Battery Charger Circuit
In this post I will explain how to build and test a homemade yet very professional looking high power EV battery charger transmitter circuit using H-bridge fixed-frequency AC inverter topology, driving a series-resonant LC tank. I will also explain how to build a complementing EV charger receiver circuit for receiving the charging current from the […]
Control a Relay ON OFF Using SIM Card, Mobile Phone, and Arduino
This project I will explain how we can control a relay remotely using a SIM card and a normal mobile phone, with help of Arduino and a GSM module. The relay can be turned ON or OFF by sending an SMS or by making a phone call to the SIM card placed inside the GSM […]
