In this post I have explained the making of an RTD temperature meter circuit, and also learn about different RTDs and their working principles through formulas. What’s an RTD A RTD or resistance temperature detector works by detecting the difference or an increase in the resistance of the sensor metal when it’s subjected to heat. […]

Simple Analogue Weighing Scale Meter Circuit
Learn a super simple procedure to make a weighing scale meter circuit useful for measuring smaller magnitudes of weight. The Concept The concept is very simple, a light beam is allowed to pass through a linearly colored ribbon and fall over an LDR. The color shade of the ribbon positioned in front of the light […]
Satellite Signal Strength Meter Circuit
Here I have explained how to make a simple inexpensive satellite signal strength meter which can be used for aligning dish antennas with local satellites in order to achieve the correct positioning and maximum signal strength from the antenna. How LNB Works The LNBs that are used for receiving satellite signals (digital or analogue) are […]
How to Measure Gain (β) of a BJT
In this post we’ll study a simple opamp circuit design which can be applied for measuring the beta or the forward current gain of a particular BJT in question. What is beta (β) The beta (β) is the forward current gain that every BJT inherently possesses. It determines the efficiency of the particular device in terms […]
LED Oscilloscope Circuit
The simple LED oscilloscope circuit I have explained in this article can be used for analyzing low frequency waveform through a 10 x 10 LED matrix display. Due to the involvement of only 100 LEDs in the display board, the resolution is low, and the waveform display clarity is not so impressive. Yet, this LED […]
