So here we are now making one automatic smart exhaust fan controller system using Arduino UNO which will work for three bathrooms that are all connected to a single ventilation pipe and one common exhaust fan. This whole project is going to be based on PIR sensors for human detection, VOC sensors for odor detection […]

Simple H-Bridge Inverter Circuit using IR2184 ICs
In this post we will try to understand this full bridge or H-bridge inverter circuit using IR2184 ICs. Let us begin breaking it down section by section. If you do not want to read the full article, you can simply watch the following video instead: What This Circuit is Doing: So here basically we are […]
How to Measure Transformer’s Current Capacity
We can use a shunt resistor and ammeter concept to find out how much maximum current a transformer can give, in other words, we are trying to know the current rating or amp capacity of a transformer. If you do not wish to read the full article below, you can feel free to watch the […]
Shunt Resistor Calculator for Ammeters
Ok so here we have one simple calculator which can help us to calculate the shunt resistor value that we need to connect across a normal ammeter when we want to use that ammeter to measure high current, more than its actual range. So normally, ammeter can measure only small current, like 1 amp or […]
SCR and Triac Gate Resistor Calculator
Here is a SCR and Triac gate resistor calculator along with the full detailed explanation. This will help users to calculate the right value of gate resistor for triggering an SCR or TRIAC safely. Calculator by homemade-circuits.com SCR / TRIAC Gate Resistor Calculator Gate Trigger Voltage (Vgt): Gate Trigger Current (Igt): Trigger Supply Voltage (Vs): […]
Understanding CMOS IC 4035 Datasheet – 4-Bit Parallel In Parallel Out Shift Register
So now we are talking about this digital IC called 4035 which is made using CMOS technology, that means it will use very low current and will give us high noise immunity. Inside this IC we have got 4 flip-flops which are arranged in such a way that they can hold and shift 4-bit data. […]
