In this post I have explained 8 easy methods of building touch sensor switch circuits at home, which can be used for switching 220 V appliances ON/OFF with mere finger touch operat ions. The first one is a simple touch sensor switch using a single IC 4017, the second one employs a Schmidt trigger IC, […]

Battery Voltage Monitor Circuits using LM324 and LM3915 ICs
The post describes simple battery charge monitor circuits or battery status indicator circuits using 4 LEDs to 10 LEDs, and using ICs like LM324 and LM3915. The first design is a 4 LED voltage monitor circuit using the versatile IC LM324. The idea was requested by Ms. Piyali. Technical Specifications I’ve a project, if you […]
How to Sense Current Using Op-Amp: Low Side and High Side Circuits Explained
In this post we are going to learn one very interesting and also very much useful topic that is how we can measure the current which is going through any load by just using some normal resistors and one op amp circuit. We know already that current is one very important thing in every electrical […]
3 Sound Activated Switch Circuits Explained
In this post I have explained 3 simple sound activated relay switch circuits which can used as a module for any system that might be assigned to trigger by detecting some kind of sound pressure level. Or simply applications such as a voice activated alarm security circuit. 1) Circuit Objective Utilizing this basic sound activated […]
ACS712 Current Sensor Circuit Diagrams and Datasheet
Here we are going to learn one cool and very important current sensor device which we call ACS712. This small chip that look just like a normal 8-pin IC, is actually able to sense current from any load and give us a proportional analog voltage output which we can easily feed to Arduino or any […]
Clap Switch Circuits with Relay ON/OFF: [Tested]
The clap switch circuits explained here will toggle a connected load ON and OFF in response to alternate clap sounds? Here I have explained 4 unique and simple designs which can be selected as per user preference. The article talks about what the title suggests – a clap switch. A small electronic circuit when built […]
