Devices that react to variations in atmosphere or fluid heat are simple to construct due to the easy availability of thermistors. This car ice warning circuit explains how to implement a thermistor like a transducer in a circuit that continuously blinks a warning lamp as soon as the atmospheric temperature drops to around 0 °C. […]

SCR Applications Circuits
In this article I have explained many interesting SCR application circuits and also learn the main features and properties of an SCR also called a thyristor device. What’s an SCR or Thyristor SCR is the acronym of Silicon Controlled Rectifier, as the name suggests it’s a kind of diode or a rectifying agent whose conduction […]
5 Simple DC Motor Speed Controller Circuits Explained
A circuit which enables a user to linearly control the speed of a connected motor by rotating an attached potentiometer is called a motor speed controller circuit. 5 easy to build speed controller circuits for DC motors are presented here, first one using MOSFET IRF540, second one using IC 555, the third concept with IC […]
