In this post we will discuss two methods of designing pure sine wave inverter circuits using 555 IC based SPWM processing. In the first concept we connect the 555 processors directly with the SG3525 outputs and do the sine wave conversion directly at the MOSFET gates. In the second concept we do it externally and […]

How to Design a Solar Inverter Circuit
When a DC to AC inverter is operated through a solar panel, it is called a solar inverter. The solar panel power is either directly used for operating the inverter or it’s used for charging the inverter battery. In both the case the inverter works without depending on mains utility grid power. Designing a solar […]
SPDT Relay Switch Circuit using Triac
An efficient solid state single pole double throw or SPDT switch can be built using triacs for replacing a mechanical SPDT. In this post I have explained a simple solid state triac SPDT relay circuit, using an optocoupler and a couple of triacs, which can be used as an effective replacement for mechanical relays. The […]
How to Design an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) Circuit
In this brief tutorial I have explained how to design a customized UPS circuit at home using ordinary components such as a few NAND ICs and a some relays. What is an UPS UPS which stands for uninterruptible power supply are inverters designed to provide a seamless AC mains power to a connected load without […]
Generator/UPS/Battery Relay Changeover Circuit
In this article I have explained a generator/UPS/Battery relay changeover circuit for implementing a customized optimization for a generator, UPS, battery power network, in order to enhance the operational efficiency of the system. The idea was requested by Mr. Sidingilizwe. Circuit Objectives and Requirements First of all thank you for adding me to your circles. […]
Mini Welding Machine Circuit for Small Welding Jobs
A welding machine is an electrical device which is able to generate a very high current at relatively low DC voltages. This high current output can be suitably used for creating the intended welding arcs and welding joints. The welding joint is created by fusing the welding rod on the joint area through a high […]
