In this post I will try to explain the making of a simple 220 V, 120 V AC mains short circuit breaker using an SCR and a triac combination, (researched and designed by me). The circuit is an electronic version of the normal main circuit breaker MCB units that we use in our homes. Note: […]
Newly Updated Circuit Projects:
IC 555 Low Battery Indicator Circuit
In this article I have explained a simple low battery indicator circuit using the IC 555 and a few resistors only. Circuit Concept Many electronic circuits such as emergency lights, battery chargers, UPS systems, flashlights etc essentially require a low battery indication feature in order to avoid over discharge of the involved battery. An over discharge could mean a permanent damage […]
Ultrasonic Wireless Water Level Indicator – Solar Powered
An ultrasonic water level controller is a device which can detect water levels in a tank without a physical contact and send the data to a distant LED indicator in a wireless GSM mode. In this post I will show how to construct a ultrasonic based solar powered wireless water level indicator using Arduino in […]
Programmable Humidity Controller Circuit
The simple programmable humidity sensor circuit I have explained in this article can be used for controlling or maintaining a suitable level of humidity inside a close premise. The circuit could be used in poultry farms or similar areas where humidity level becomes crucial for keeping the animals healthy. The idea was requested by Mr. […]
5 Simple Water Level Controller Circuits
An automatic water level controller is a device which senses undesired low and high water levels in a tank, and switches a water pump ON or OFF accordingly to maintain an optimal water content in the tank. In this article I have explained 5 simple automatic water level controller circuits which can be used for […]
Making a Parasite Zapper Circuit
An interesting electronic parasite zapper circuit shown below was successfully built and tested by my friend Mr. Steven. I have explained more about the proposed circuit. What is a Parasite Zapper The purpose of this device is simple, it is meant to act like a parasite zapper, a DIY electronic device that people say can […]
