Car Door Close Optimizer Circuit
In this post I have explained and tries to solve a common car door opening issue which may be seen in quite a few old model cars. The proposed circuit of a car door close optimizer was requested by Mr. Mark Rothwell. Technical Specifications Just stumbled across your site, hope you can help/advise me?I have […]
Vehicle Speed Limit Alarm Circuit
In our previous articles we have learned comprehensively regarding the ICs LM2907/LM2917 which are fundamentally frequency to voltage converter ICs, and are ideally applicable in all such relevant fields. Here we see how the same chip can be applied for making a vehicle speed limit alarm circuit. Using a Single IC for Speed Detection As […]
Multi-spark CDI Circuit
In this post I have explained an enhanced multi-spark CDI circuit which is universally suited for all types of automobiles. The unit can be built at home and installed in a particular vehicle for achieving greater speed to fuel efficiency. The Circuit Concept The following diagram illustrates an enhanced version of a multi-spark CDI circuit. […]
Motorcycle Regulator, Rectifier Tester Circuit
The motorcycle regulator, rectifier tester circuit presented here can be used to test a 6-wire shunt type regulator-rectifiers for a 3-phase charging system of motorcycles. These reg./rectifiers (RR-units) are usually sealed with epoxy and it is considered difficult to find out if the unit is faulty or not. Designed and Written by: Abu-Hafss As the […]
5 Simple Siren Circuits you can Build at Home
In this post I have explained about a 5 simple siren circuits, using Arduino and also with ordinary components such as transistors and capacitors yet is able to produce an alarm sound at an excruciating level. The idea was contributed by “Abu-Hafss” Deeper in the article we also learn to make an advanced Arduino based […]
