In this article we are going to take a look at DHTxx series sensors, which is used for measuring temperature and humidity, both the functionality is integrated into one module. We are going to see their specification, so that you can choose best sensor for your project and finally we are going to interface it […]
Sensors and Detectors
Linear Hall-Effect Sensor – Working and Application Circuit
Linear Hall-effect ICs are magnetic sensor devices designed to respond to magnetic fields to produce a proportionate amount of electrical output. It thus becomes useful for measuring the strength of magnetic fields, and in applications that require an output switched through magnetic triggers. The modern hall effect ICs are designed with immunity to most mechanical […]
Motion Detector Circuit using Doppler Effect
The motion sensor circuit explained in the article works by using doppler shift principle, in which the moving target is detected through the continuously varying frequency, reflected from the moving object. What is Doppler Effect One very fascinating feature of sound is the Doppler effect. The Doppler effect happens when the source that is producing […]
Precision Current Sensing and Monitoring Circuit using IC NCS21xR
If you are looking for current shunt monitors or current sense amplifiers then you have landed at the right page. Current shunt monitor is an instrumentation amplifier which senses the current across a shunt resistor in a system, and converts it into a logical signal output for triggering a switching device such a relay, transistor […]
No Load Detector and Cut-off Circuit for Inverters
In this post I have explained a relay cut-off circuit which may be included in inverters to ensures that under a no load at the output the condition is quickly detected and the supply cut off, preventing the inverter from operating unnecessarily. The idea was requested by Mr. Rajath. Technical Specifications I need to adopt […]
Morse Code Flasher Circuit for Lighthouse
In this post I have explained a simple morse code lamp flasher circuit which may be used for model lighthouse signalling applications. The idea was requested by Mr. Frank Gardner. Technical Specifications I am in need of a unique flashing circuit. I have built several exact scale models of the light house at Yerba Buena […]
