A dip meter or a grid dip meter can be considered as a kind of frequency meter whose function is to determine the resonant frequency of an LC circuit. For this, the circuits don’t have to ‘radiate’ any waves or frequency across each other. Instead, the procedure is implemented simply by placing the coil of […]

Basic Induction Heater Concept You might have come across many DIY induction heater circuits online but nobody seem to have addressed the crucial secret behind implementing […]
4 Automatic Day Night Switch Circuits Explained
The 4 simple light activated day night switch circuits explained here can all be used for controlling a load, normally a 220V lamp, in response to the varying levels of the surrounding ambient light. The circuit can be used as a commercial automatic street light control system, as a domestic porch light or corridor light […]
Grid-tie Inverter (GTI) Circuit Using SCR
Grid-tie inverter concepts may appear to be complex due to the many criticalities involved with them, however with some intelligent thinking it could be actually implemented using primitive technologies. One of the ideas has been explored here. Introduction The discussed idea of a simple grid-tie inverter circuit was suggested by one of the interested readers […]
IC 7805, 7812, 7824 Pinout Connection Explained
In this post I have explained how to connect common 78XX voltage regulator ICs such as 7805, 7812, 7824 etc for getting fixed regulated output voltages at 5 V, 12 V, or 24 V outputs respectively. The input voltage must be at least 3 V higher than the desired output voltage. For example, if a […]
