The ISD1820 is a voice IC that lets us record voice from a mic and play it back using simple buttons or microcontroller. We can record between 8 to 20 seconds which depends on how we set it. This IC is used in small voice projects, talking toys, greeting circuits, voice alerts, and more. ISD1820 […]

What is ISD1820 Module? How to Connect and Use
The ISD1820 is a small ready-made module which can record human voice for short time and then play it back. It is based on the ISD1820 IC which is a voice record and playback chip. This module is very popular for DIY projects where we want to make some talking gadget or voice-alarm,or greeting system, […]
Amplifier Short/Overload Protection Circuit – 2 Ideas Discussed
Due to some reason if the loudspeaker of a power amplifier gets shorted, that may lead to a fatal damage to the amplifier component. To prevent this an amplifier short circuit protector circuit can be very useful. In the following post I have explained 2 simple amplifier short circuit or overload protection circuits for safeguarding […]
Explained: MAX4466 Electret Microphone Amplifier Module with Adjustable Gain
In this post we will be talking about this MAX4466 microphone amplifier module, right? So this is a tiny little circuit that can amplify weak sound signals from an electret condenser microphone (ECM). That means it is going to take a very small electrical signal from the microphone and then boost it up so we […]
Make this Simple Buzzer Circuit with Transistor and Piezo
In this article I have explained how to make a very simple circuit for buzzer using piezo electric transducer, two resistors, a small coil and a BC547 transistor. A buzzer is a high frequency oscillator circuit used for generating a buzzing sound through a transducer or speaker output. Simple Buzzer using a Single Transistor Just […]
2 watt Amplifier Circuit
A very simple 2 watt audio amplifier circuit has been presented here which can be constructed by all new electronic hobbyists for amplifying small signal frequencies and for other similar experiments. Circuit Operation
