In this post I have explained how to scavenge discarded microwave oven parts for making a useful soldering iron heat controller circuit which can then be used for maintaining controlled heat over a connected soldering iron tip ensuring safe soldering operations, that may be quite crucial and handy if you are working with SMD parts. […]
Newly Updated Circuit Projects:
Simple Transformer Winding Tester Circuit
This test set is primarily designed to test step-down, step-up transformers, for open and shorted winding. It can determine if the device under test has a low resistance to ac current. It can also measure the dc current resistancein ohms. By Henry Bowman Introduction The test set uses a 16 VAC, 60hz signal to determine […]
Simple MOSFET Tester and Sorter Circuit
This simple MOSFET tester does a quick job of testing both enhanced mode type N and P-channel mosfets. It checks for shorts between gate, drain and source. Designed By: Henry Bowman It also distinguishes between N and P-channel mosfets. Once the connections are correctly made to the mosfet, all testing is done without reversing connections. […]
Cell Phone Ring to Flashing Lamp Indicator for People with Hearing Loss
In this post I have explained a simple sound to flashing lamp circuit which can be used for facilitating people with hearing loss, so that they are able to visualize a distant cell phone rings through flashing of a lamp, and immediately understand regarding an incoming call in their cell phone. The following explanation and […]
400V 40A Darlington Power Transistor Datasheet Specifications: MJ10022, MJ10023
In this post we investigate the datasheet and technical specifications of a 400V, 40A (ampere) power Darlington transistor MJ10022 and MJ10023, and also learn the main features of the device. We mostly find it difficult when it comes to finding a BJT with extreme voltage and current specifications such as with a 400V and 40 […]
Make this IR Remote Control Range Extender Circuit
In this post I have explained how to increase or extend the range of an ordinary infra red or IR remote control through a 433MHz RF remote control system. IR Range Extender Concept The idea of this circuit is to feed the IR data from an IR transmitter into the transmitter input of an RF […]
