The Field-Effect Transistor or the FET is a 3 terminal semiconductor device which is used for switching high power DC loads through negligible power inputs. The FET comes with some unique features such as a high input impedance (in the megohms) and with almost zero loading on a signal source or the attached preceding stage. […]

IC 7805 Variable Power Supply Circuit [5V to 15V]
Although, a 7805 IC is mostly used as a fixed 5 V voltage regulator, it is possible to configure a 7805 IC to produce a variable output from 5 V and higher, depending up the input DC supply. In this post I have explained a simple circuit network which can be used for getting an […]
Digital Step Sine wave Generator Circuit
In this post I have explained how to build a simple yet accurate digital sine wave generator circuit, which is basically an oscillator circuit, enhanced to generate square waves through incrementing steps, which ultimately appears like a stepped sine waveform. By Ron Mackenzy The difference between analogue sine wave generator and digital sine wave generator […]
Firecracker Igniter circuit [Remote Controlled with Timer]
In this post I will show how to construct a few fireworks ignition circuits which can safely ignite them via IR remote and timer. We have proposed three firecracker igniter circuit designs using ordinary components which we will be exploring them in detail. Before we jump in to the circuit details, we have a word […]
Wireless DC Motor Speed Control Circuit
In this post I will show how to construct a wireless DC motor speed control circuit which can be controlled using any IR based remote controller. The proposed project has two main objectives; the first one is 5 step sequential speed control of a 12V DC motor using IC 555 (PWM) and controlling the PWM […]
Phase Shift Oscillator Circuits – Wien-Bridge, Buffered, Quadrature, Bubba
A phase-shift oscillator is an oscillator circuit designed to generate a sinewave output. It operates with a single active element such as a BJT or an op amp configured in an inverting amplifier mode. The circuit arrangement creates a feedback from the output to the input through using an RC (resistor/capacitor) circuit arranged in a […]
