The circuit I have I have explained in this article allows one to detect the current consumed by a device and to power one or more other devices accordingly. Indeed, the solution of a switchboard is not always applicable because it is often not very practical. Furthermore, some devices such as computers only start when […]

How to Modify 78XX, LM323, LM350, LM317 Voltage Regulator Circuits
In this article I have explained many different methods of modifying voltage regulators ICs to improve their voltage and current handling characteristics. We learn how to externally modify these regulators using transistors and ICs for upgrading their current and power handling capacities. We discuss how to modify 78XX ICs, LM317 ICs, LM350 ICs, and LM323 […]
Simple Voltage Multiplier Circuits Explored
In this article I have explained how an input AC source could be increased to any desired levels using simple voltage multiplier circuits, built with capacitors and diodes. Thus the basic function of a voltage multiplier circuit is to multiply a given AC voltage source to any higher desired level, simply by adding the relevant […]
Proximity Detector using Hall Effect Sensor Circuit
This proximity detector circuit uses a Hall effect sensor to detect the approach of a magnetic object, such as a magnet fixed to the frame of a door. The application is simple, but widely used. The use of a Hall effect sensor solves many problems that arise when one wants to detect the opening of […]
Anti-Corrosion Probes for Water Level Controller
In this post I have explained a few interesting methods of constructing anti-corrosion probes for water level sensor and controller circuits by using alternating supply across the probes. Using Bridge Rectifiers (New Update) This simple anti-corrosion probe idea using bridge rectifiers happened to strike me recently and I decided to post it here for you […]
Child Crying Monitor Circuit using Power Line Communication
In this child crying monitor circuit when the baby wakes up in their room, the parents are immediately notified, even if they are in another room of their home. A sensor detects the crying sound accompanying the wake-up. After appropriate processing, it sends a signal through the 220V power lines. The receiver, connected to any […]
