In this article I have explained how to calculate resistor and capacitor values in transformerless power supply circuits using simple formulas like ohms law. Analyzing a Capactive Power Supply Before I have explained the formula for calculating and optimizing resistor and capacitor values in a transformerless power supply, it would be important to first summarize […]

Designing a Power Factor Correction (PFC) Circuit Using UC3854 – Key Considerations
The IC UC3854, what it does is, it helps in active power factor correction, right? Now normally, if we don’t correct the power factor, then power system will pull current from the AC mains in a way that’s not a nice sine wave but rather distorted. This IC takes care of all the control stuff […]
Automatic Curtain Open-Close Circuit
We are happy to share an automatic curtain control circuit kindly provided by Mr. August Peterson. This design helps to open and close curtains by sensing light from the surroundings. It uses an LM393 comparator, a solar panel as a light sensor and a 24V motor. The circuit makes the curtain open in the morning […]
Car Reverse Horn Circuit
A crucial safety element in cars is the reverse horn, sometimes referred to as the reverse warning device or backup alarm, which emits an auditory signal while the automobile is in reverse. The reverse horn, which is intended to improve pedestrian and occupant safety, generates a unique sound to alert others around that the vehicle […]
4 Solid-State Car Alternator Regulator Circuits Explored
The 4 simple car voltage current regulator circuits I have explained below is created as a immediate alternative to any standard regulator and, although developed principally for a dynamo it will function equally effectively with an alternator. If the functioning of a traditional car alternator voltage regulator is analyzed, we find it amazing that these […]
