The post explains a simple infrared intruder alarm circuit using an IR transmitter and an IR receiver module. The transmitter and the receiver photo diodes used in the two modules […]
How Contactless Infrared Thermometers Work – How to Make One
In this post we will learn the basic working concept of thermal scanners or contactless IR thermometers, and also learn how to make a practical DIY prototype of the unit […]
PIR Burglar Alarm Circuit
The PIR burglar alarm explained here will detect a human intruder within the stipulated range and sound an alarm. Thus, the system could be effectively use for detecting trespassing, theft, […]
Fiber Optic Circuit – Transmitter and Receiver
Electronic signals have been quite successfully sent for decades through standard “hard -wire” connections, or by using radio links of different kinds which had many disadvantages. On the other hand […]
Photodiode, Phototransistor – Working and Application Circuits
Photodiodes and phototransistors are semiconductor devices which have their p-n semiconductor junction exposed to light through a transparent cover, so that external light can react and force an electrical conduction […]
4 Simple Motion Detector Circuits using PIR
A PIR motion sensor alarm is a device which detects the infrared radiation from a moving human body and triggers an an audible alarm. The post discuses 4 simple motion […]
