If you have ever tried building a high-power inverter, a high-frequency induction heater, or just a solid adjustable lab bench power supply, you already know that controlling both the voltage and current at the same time is an absolute nightmare. Most builders just grab the standard application circuit from the SG3525 datasheet, wire up a […]
Newly Updated Circuit Projects:
Can EGS002 Work With a Standard 16 × 2 LCD?
Many people build inverter using EGS002, then they ask can we connect normal 16 × 2 LCD or not?? So the answer is yes, but not the way you may think. Understanding LCD Side Of EGS002 As we all know EGS002 is built around EG8010. That chip is dedicated SPWM sine wave inverter controller IC, […]
2 Simple MOSFET Gate Driver Circuits using BJTs
Very often we see that output coming from a microcontroller, oscillator, comparator, or PWM stage is just not strong enough for driving a power MOSFET directly, it gives signal, yes, but gate does not respond properly unless some decent current reaches there. A MOSFET gate behaves like a small capacitor, so now unless that gate […]
XL6009 DC-DC Converter IC: Pinout, Working, Circuit Diagram, and Applications
XL6009 is a DC-DC switching regulator IC, and we use it where lower voltage DC has to be lifted higher, or sometimes changed other ways, boost, buck-boost, flyback, even inverting, all that is possible depending how outside parts are connected. Why XL6009 is More Efficient Than Linear Regulators It is not like old regulator types […]
Long Duration Timer Circuit using IC 4541: Working and Calculations
The CD4541B is a CMOS programmable timer IC, and we use it where long delay interval is needed for a load, and also for jobs like frequency division, or timing pulse work. And all this happens with only just a few outside parts, not much around it. With ordinary IC 555, when delay becomes too […]
Replicating an EGS002 Equivalent Board using Arduino
The EGS002 board is nothing but a combination of a microcontroller with a H-bridge driver like the IR2110. So if you are interested to build your own EGS002 equivalent board with exactly identical features, then you can do it using the instructions given in the following article. So, here we are trying to build our […]
