In this article I have explained the formula and techniques of configuring RC circuit networks for controlling the arcing across relay contacts while switching heavy inductive loads. Arc suppression An arc is produced across the contacts when a switch or a relay is opened. With time, this condition can wear down the contacts. To overcome […]
Newly Updated Circuit Projects:
Inverter Circuit with Feedback Control
In this article I have explained a couple of inverter circuits featuring an automatic feedback control for ensuring that the output does not exceed the normal specified AC output level, and also does not exceed the specified overload conditions. What is Feedback Control in Inverters A feedback control in inverter is generally incorporated to control […]
Wireless Servo Motor Control Using 2.4 GHz communication link
In this post I will show how to construct a wireless servo motor circuit which can control 6 servo motors wirelessly on 2.4 GHz communication link. Introduction The project is divided into two parts: a transmitter with 6 potentiometers and a receiver circuit with 6 servo motors. The remote has 6 potentiometers to control 6 […]
How to Add Adjustable Current and Voltage feedback Control to SG3525 High Power Inverters
If you want to build a very heavy power inverter or when you want to make a high frequency induction heater, or when you want to make a lab grade variable SMPS, then getting precise control over both output voltage and current is a major engineering hurdle. Most standard designs using the classic SG3525 PWM […]
Non Contact AC Phase Detector Circuit [Tested]
The circuit discussed in this article is of a non-contact mains AC field detector which displays the presence of a mains AC field from a distance of more an 6 inches. Locating Fault in AC Lines without Physical Contact The circuit can be used for locating faults in house wiring without the need of making […]
Low Battery Indicator Circuit Using Two Transistors Only
In the following post I have explained a simple low battery indicator circuit by using just two inexpensive NPN transistors. The main feature of this circuit is its very low stand by current consumption. The Circuit Concept We have so far seen how to make a low battery indicator circuits using a 741 IC and […]
