Impact Collision Switch Sensor Module and Circuit Diagram
Here we are going to learn about a very interesting small sensor called the Impact Collision Switch Sensor Module. This module is super simple but very useful especially when we want to detect a shock, collision, hit or a sudden tap on a surface. Now let us go step-by-step to understand everything about it. What […]
Simple Motorcycle Security Alarm Circuit
In this article I have explained a simple motorcycle ant-theft security alarm circuit using a tilt switch and a TTP223 touch switch. The circuit was requested by Mr. Sergei, as given below. Design Request and Specifications I am a motorcyclist and I would like to ask you to design a simple and cheap alarm system […]
Flashlight Activated Burglar Alarm Circuit
This flashlight triggered burglar alarm circuit will instantly switch ON an alarm as soon as it detects light from the burglar’s torch or flashlight. Burglars and thieves normally set out to steal or rob during nights, when it is completely dark, and depend on a flashlight to investigate the area. Our circuit is setup and […]
Security Alarm Circuit using RCWL-0516 Microwave Radar Sensor
This security alarm circuit using RCWL-0516 microwave radar motion sensor will detect any moving thing in the restricted area and turn ON an alarm sound. The RCWL-0516 is basically an advanced motion sensor using microwave radar signals. I have already discussed the working of RCWL-0516 elaborately, which you can read for more details. Circuit Description The […]
Footsteps Detector Circuit
By sensing vibrations from footfall, a Footsteps Detector Circuit is a creative and affordable approach for catching intruders. It employs a simple setup with a low-cost loudspeaker and a mute switch to pick up even the smallest steps. This simple circuit is excellent for enhancing building and garden security. We’ll go through the fundamental components […]
