It’s John Ambrose Fleming (1849-1945), a British engineer, who invented the first diode in 1904, in the form of an electron tube. Later, with the development of semiconductor technology, the diode became a dipole consisting of two substrates: one, rich in free electrons, and of type N, the other deficient in electrons, and of type […]

Temperature Regulator Circuits using IC LM335
There are many cases where it is desirable to actively regulate the operating temperature of an electronic assembly. Sometimes, it is imperative to dissipate the heat generated by the components (this is the case for the majority of microprocessors in our modern PCs). On the contrary, it is necessary to artificially increase the operating temperature […]
Simple 4 Watt LED Driver Circuit Using IC 338
This 4 watt LED driver is a device that will illuminate a 4 watt LED safely through a constant current circuit using the IC LM338. The IC LM338 as we know is a highly versatile device when it comes to controlling voltages and current levels. Circuit Configuration In the present design, the device is configured […]
Real Machine Gun Sound Effect Generator Circuit
Video Demonstration An impressive little machine gun sound effect generator circuit is discussed here. Once built can be integrated with any audio amplifier to experience a roaring bullet studded war like simulation. A small hobby project which can be tried by all electronic enthusiasts will generate interesting machine gun sound effect over the connected loudspeaker, […]
Make a Simplest Temperature Indicator Circuit
A very simple temperature indicator circuit can be built by interconnecting a single transistor, a diode and a few other passive components. Using Transistor as a Heat Sensor As we know that all semiconductors have this “bad habit” of changing its basic characteristics in response to ambient temperature changes. Especially basic electronic components like transistors […]
