Another versatile device, the IC 4060 has numerous applications and can be used for implementing various useful functions in an electronic circuit. Introduction Basically the IC 4060 is a oscillator/Timer IC and can be used for producing discretely variable accurate time intervals or delays. Alternatively it may also be used as an oscillator for acquiring […]
Newly Updated Circuit Projects:
Timer based Water Level Controller Circuit
The explained circuit of a water level controller circuit is based on a adjustable timer circuit whose time delay is first adjusted to match the filling time of the tank, as the the tank fills, the timer delay also simultaneously lapses and its output switches OFF the water pump. Circuit Specifications Actually the circuit was […]
Electronic 12V DC Capacitive Discharge Ignition (CDI) Circuits
In the following post I have explained a simple yet enhanced 12V capacitive discharge ignition system which derives its operating voltage from the battery instead of the alternator for generating the igniting sparks. Since it works independently from the alternator voltage, without depending on a pickup coil signal, it is able to function more efficiently […]
Transmitter Receiver Circuit for 80-meter Ham Radio
This tiny and simple transmitter, receiver set will allow you to communicate over 100 of miles across the world, by tuning to 80-meter amateur ham radio stations. What is 80-meter Band The 80-meter uses 3.5 MHz frequency band for radio communications, which gets the permissions under amateur radio use Between 3.5 to 4.0 MHz in […]
3-Digit LED Capacitance Meter Circuit
This project is yet another test equipment that can be extremely handy to any electronic hobbyist, and building this unit can be a lot of fun. A capacitance meter is a very useful test equipment as it allows the user to check a desired capacitor and confirm its relaibility. Ordinary or standard digital meters mostly […]
Programmable Automatic Starter Circuit for Diesel Water Pump
In this post I have explained a programmable Auto-Starter circuit which may be used for getting a pre-programmed set of automatic sequential operations over a Diesel Water Pump as intended by the user. The idea was requested by Mr. Scott. Technical Specifications I am currently trying to figure out how to make up an auto […]
