In this article I have explained how to build a digital voltmeter and a digital ammeter combined circuit module for measuring DC volts and current through different ranges, digitally. Introduction Electrical parameters like voltage and current are inherently associated with electronics and with electronic engineers. Any electronic circuit would be just incomplete without appropriate supply […]

6 Useful DC Cell phone Charger Circuits Explained
A DC cell phone or mobile phone charger is a device which charges a cellphone from an available DC supply source. The device converts the unregulated DC source into a constant current and constant voltage output which becomes safe for any mobile phone charging. In this article I have explained how to build DC to […]
Simple 12V, 1A SMPS Circuit
In the following content I have explained two simple 12V, 1 Amp switch mode power supply (SMPS) circuit using the very reliable VIPerXX IC from ST microelectronics. With the advent of modern ICs and circuits, the age old iron transformer type of power supply are surely becoming obsolete. Today power supplies are much compact, smaller […]
How Switch Mode Power Supply (SMPS) Circuits Work
SMPS is the acronym of the word Switch Mode Power Supply. The name clearly suggests that the concept has something or entirely to do with pulses or switching of the employed devices. I have explained how SMPS adapters work for converting mains voltage to a lower DC voltage. Advantage of SMPS Topology In SMPS adapters […]
Motor Protection Circuits – Over Voltage, Over Heat, Over Current
In this post I have explained a few DC motor protection circuit from harmful conditions like over voltage and under voltage situations, over current, overload etc.. DC motor failures are commonly experienced by many of the users, especially in places where the relevant motor is run for many hours a day. Replacing motor parts or […]
How to Get Free Energy from Alternator and Battery
A request was sent to me by one of the readers Mr. Edward Pizzo, regarding solving a circuit issue. The idea refers to a very interesting concept of acquiring free energy through a mechanism which once initiated keeps running in quite a perpetual fashion. Using an Alternator and two Batteries A charged battery #1 is used initially for […]
