The electric fence charger circuit presented here is basically a high voltage pulse generator. The super high voltage is derived from a commonly used automobile ignition coil. An astable multivibrator is used to generate the required frequency to drive the ignition coil. Another astable is used to control the pulses supplied to the fence. Audio/Video […]

3 Accurate Infrared Intruder Alarm Circuits using Photodiodes
In this post I have explained 3 simple yet accurate infrared intruder alarm circuits using an infrared transmitter and an infrared receiver module. The transmitter and the receiver photo diodes used in the two modules are aligned in line at a distance of around 2 meters within the restricted area. When a burglar tries to […]
2 Tone Ringtone Generator Circuit
The IC LS1240A from SGS Thompson is specifically designed for generating a 2 tone ringtone generator circuit. Thus the IC specifically becomes suitable for landline telephones for producing the ringtones when a call is received. However with little modifications the IC can be easily utilized for normal applications, in circuits where a double tone alarm […]
