LM386 Amplifier Circuit [Working and Application Circuits]
The IC LM386 is a 8-pin tiny power amplifier chip, specially made for operating under relatively low voltage parameters, yet provide considerable amplification. IC LM386 amplifier circuit becomes suitable for applying in small low power audio gadgets like in FM radios, door bells, telephones etc. Let’s begin the IC LM386 amplifier explanation by studying its absolute maximum ratings […]
How to Make LED/LDR Opto Coupler
Ever needed an application where the resistance of a resistor needed to vary proportionately in response to a PWM or a varying analog voltage? Yes, this is where an LED-LDR opto-coupler becomes so useful. The following image shows the symbol for a LED LDR opto-coupler. Any other regular opto-coupler, such as an LED/transistor, LED/FET, or […]
Simplest Piezo Driver Circuit Explained
In the previous post I explained a piezo transducer element and learned how to use it with electronic circuits. In this article we will see how a piezo tranducer can be driven or operated using a simple circuit. As discussed earlier a piezo transducer basically requires a frequency to vibrate and reproduce the required sound. […]
How to Make a Remote Control Circuit from a Remote Bell
The proposed remote control circuit idea can be used for controlling any electrical gadget within a range of 100 meters. How the Circuit is Supposed to Work Since the idea here is to modify an existing circuit of a remote bell unit, becomes super easy without any complications. However the construction part does require the […]
