Timer Controlled Submersible Pumpset Circuit
In this post I have explained a timer circuit for submersible borewell pumpset which alternately switches the pumpset ON/OFF at a predetermined rate in order to allow the ground water sufficient time to restore at regular intervals and to ensure a consistent water supply to the attached overhead tank. The idea was requested by Mr. […]
IC 4060 Latching Problem [Solved]
The post talks about an IC 4060 timer circuit problem implemented in a coffee wending machine, in which the circuit simply stops working each time its stipulated delay period is lapsed, even after a complete power switch OFF and ON. The question was presented by Mr. Kenndy and was solved through the following email discussion: […]
Switching Two Alternate Loads ON/OFF with IC 555
In this post I have explained how to make a simple IC 555 based alternate relay timer circuit for toggling a couple of loads alternately with a specified length of delay, as determined by the calculated values of the relevant components. The idea was requested by Mr. Sanjoy. Circuit Objectives and Requirements The Design Referring […]
