Building a spot welding machine at home, it does not really need those complex SMPS circuits or costly stuff, nope. Instead a much simpler way is there, which people use, and it works quite well. We can use a microwave oven transformer, that MOT, and then add a small timing circuit with it, so now […]

Make this Simple Set Reset Circuit using IC 555
In this post I have explained a simple IC 555 set/reset application circuit for activating or deactivating a relay alternately. Audio/Video Representation Circuit Operation This electronic set reset circuit is very simple, easy to implement and very useful. It can provide you many applications options in cases where it may be necessary to toggle (switch […]
A4988 Motor Driver Circuit Diagram with IC 555
In this article we now talk about a very simple but very useful stepper motor controller that uses one A4988 driver module and one 555 astable pulse generator. Overview Of The Circuit So we first see the main building blocks. We have one A4988 module that drives any small 2 phase stepper motor. We also […]
IC 555 Low Battery Indicator Circuit
In this article I have explained a simple low battery indicator circuit using the IC 555 and a few resistors only. Circuit Concept Many electronic circuits such as emergency lights, battery chargers, UPS systems, flashlights etc essentially require a low battery indication feature in order to avoid over discharge of the involved battery. An over discharge could mean a permanent damage […]
How to Control a Servo Motor using IC 555
In this project I have explained the basic specifications of a servo motor and also how to control a Servo Motor using a 555 timer IC, and just two push buttons. WHY SERVO? Servo Motors are used in variety of fields. These are mainly used as actuators in those areas where we need a precise […]
Visitor Counter Circuit Using IC 555 and IC 4026
A visitor counter is a machine that counts the of number people who visited a place. Visitor counters are usually installed at the entrance and exit points of commercial buildings such as shopping malls, theme parks, museums, Airports, schools, departmental shops and other business etc. The registered counts on the machine are used for business […]
