4 Simple Li-Ion Battery Charger Circuits – Using LM317, NE555, LM324
In this post I have explained a four simple yet a safe way of charging a Li-ion battery using ordinary ICs like LM317 and NE555 which can be easily constructed at home by any new hobbyist. Although Li-Ion batteries are vulnerable devices, these can be charged through simpler circuits if the charging rate does not […]
Sequential Bar Graph Turn Light Indicator Circuit for Car
The article illustrates a simple yet innovative, fancy car turn signal light circuit which produces a rising bar graph sequence effect when switched ON. The circuit idea was requested by Mr. +Bruce Lowry. I have explained more. Technical Specifications I am after a circuit design similar to the LED Bar Graph circuit that is found […]
3 Interesting DRL (Day Time Running Light) Circuits for Your Car
DRL or Day Time Running Lights are a chain of bright lights mostly LEDs installed just under a vehicle’s headlight, which illuminate automatically during day time to ensure that others can distinctly notice the vehicle approaching even from a distance. The following customized DRL circuit was requested by Mr. Jivesh Technical Specification as Provided by […]
How to Design an Inverter – Theory and Tutorial
In this post I have explained the fundamental tips and theories which may be useful for the newcomers while designing or dealing with basic inverter concepts. I have explained more. What’s an Inverter It’s a device which converts or inverts a low voltage, high DC potential into a low current high alternating voltage such as […]
12V DC to 220V DC Boost Converter Circuit
In this article I have explained a very simple method of acquiring 220V DC from a 12V DC source. The idea utilizes inductor/oscillator based boost topology with the help of the IC 555. Circuit Operation Now let us learn more about this simple 12V to 220V DC boost converter circuit, which is built around IC […]
