Video showing the Testing of TSOP1738 with 38 kHz Frequency The TSOP17XX series of ICs are infrared sensor devices designed for sensing infrared frequencies only with a specific range of modulated frequency, and interpreting them into a proportionate magnitude of electrical pulses at the output. This is specifically done to make the sensor immune to […]
Newly Updated Circuit Projects:
Automatic Generator Choke Actuator Circuit
In this post I have explained a simple automatic generator choke actuator circuit using a straightforward delay OFF timer circuit and a solenoid device. The circuit was requested by Mr. Bob Perry. Technical Specifications I’m in need of a time delay schematic for the following project. I have an electric generator that I can start by […]
Footstep Activated LED Trouser Light Circuit
In this post I have explained how to transform your ordinary trousers into a chasing LED lit trousers which produces an shooting LED light chasing effect in response to your footstep movement or thumping. The Circuit Concept The proposed foot step activated chasing LED trouser will enable you to decorate any piece of clothing with LEDs […]
3.7 V Li-Ion Battery Charger Circuit with Automatic Cut-off
In this article we study a simple 3.7V li-ion battery charger circuit with auto-cut off, which can be charged from your computer USB port or any other 5 V regulated source. Simplest 3.7V Li-ion Battery Charger with Auto Cut-off using LM393 IC If you do not wish to read the following long explanation, you can […]
Vehicle Speed Limit Alarm Circuit
In our previous articles we have learned comprehensively regarding the ICs LM2907/LM2917 which are fundamentally frequency to voltage converter ICs, and are ideally applicable in all such relevant fields. Here we see how the same chip can be applied for making a vehicle speed limit alarm circuit. Using a Single IC for Speed Detection As […]
Accurate Speedometer Circuit
Here we’ll see how a simple yet accurate analogue speedometer circuit can be constructed at home using just a single IC and a few external passive components. The speedometer can be universally used with all 2-wheeler, 3-wheeler, even in bicycles for indicating their speeds. Using Frequency to Voltage Converter In my previous article I have […]
