Many times you make simple op-amp comparator circuit, but output starts jumping up and down like anything near the triggering point just because of small electrical noise. Relay and microcontroller will get totally confused with this nonsense. Only proper solution is adding positive feedback to make it a Schmitt trigger. But doing paper maths for […]

How to Connect Two TRIACs in Series for High Voltage Loads
Normally, for standard 220V AC household projects, a single 600V or 800V TRIAC is more than enough. But what if you are working with a very high voltage line, like 1000V AC? A single common TRIAC will immediately burn and short circuit because it cannot handle that much voltage stress. To solve this, we can […]
How to Connect Triacs in Parallel for High Current Loads: Circuit Diagram
Sometimes we make electronic circuit designs, and then we see that one single TRIAC cannot take all the big current of a very heavy load. This heavy load can be a huge heater, a big motor, or too many lights. In this condition, we get a simple idea. We think that we can connect two […]
How To Use And Program ATmega Microcontrollers From Scratch Without Arduino
ATmega microcontrollers, they are coming from the AVR family which Atmel developed long back, and later this Atmel company was taken by Microchip. So now officially Microchip owns it but still people say Atmel AVR only. These MCUs became very popular slowly because they are easy to understand, quite affordable, stable in long run and […]
DPDT Relay Working, Pinouts, Testing Explained
In this post we are going to understand about how this DPDT relay actually works, how we identify its pinouts, and how we can use it in our projects. We shall go step by step so that you can feel confident with every small thing about it. Introduction We know that a DPDT relay means […]
LM567 IC Calculator Tool
We can use this small LM567 calculator tool for finding the right frequency, Rt, and Ct values for our tone decoder circuit. Now we know that this IC works on one simple relation which is, f = 1 / (1.1 × Rt × Ct) So we can see that this frequency depends only on the […]
