Circuit Projects for Beginners and School Students
In this article I have explained how to build small electronic circuit projects suitable for beginners, young hobbyists, school students, who are new to electronics and are at the initial learning stage. Which Circuit Projects are Suitable for the Beginners? Warning: In this article there are a few circuits which are not isolated from AC […]
Gel Cell Battery Charger Circuit [Constant Current, Constant Voltage]
In this post I have explained what are gel cell batteries and also learn how to build a specialized charger for charging a gel cell battery, with full calculations. The proposed circuit works in two modes: it starts charging a discharged gel cell battery with constant current, until the full charge voltage is reached across […]
Light Controlled Sound Effect Generator Circuit
This unique circuit allows you to create many different sound effect outputs simply by moving your hands over a couple of light dependent resistors, by varying the intensity of incident light over the LDRs. By Ramesh Powar The generator has two different cells LDRs that control a sound – burst oscillator circuit. One LDR controls the tone […]
3 LED Battery Level Indicator Circuit
The proposed 3 LED battery level indicator can be typically used for monitoring a 12 V lead acid battery charge level, through 3 distinct LED illumination. The entire circuit is built using just a couple of BJTs , a few zener diodes, resistors and LEDs. Different Ways to Check Battery Voltage A hydrometer is perhaps […]
Types of Batteries Explained [NiCd, NiMH, Lead Acid, Li-Ion]
In this post I have explained the main types of batteries that are widely used in today’s world for almost all important applications, ranging from cars, automobiles mobile phones, airplanes, industries, satellites to name a few. The Nickel Cadmium (NiCd) Battery Fundamentally, the NiCd battery adopts fast charging as opposed to slow charging and employs […]
