In this article we will try to understand how to build a 220V AC to 48 V DC SMPS circuit for charging all types of 48V batteries, using the nice little IC IR2153. However, since 48V battery will require a 56V DC, so we will rather discuss a 220V to 56 V DC battery charger […]

100A AC Load Monitoring Circuit using Arduino, Watt Limit, LCD, Alarm, Auto Shutdown
In this project we are going to make one very useful grid power protection circuit. This will be like a power guard system which we can use in homes or apartments to monitor the wattage of the load and also to cut off the load automatically if it starts taking too much wattage, more than […]
Transformerless AC Voltmeter Circuit Using Arduino
In this article I have explained how to make a transformerless AC voltmeter using Arduino. Making an analog voltmeter is not an easy task as to build one you must have good knowledge of physical quantities like torque, speed; which can be very difficult when it comes to their practical applications. By Ankit Negi But […]
Password Controlled AC Mains ON/OFF Switch
In this post I will show how to construct a password based mains ON/OFF switch circuit, which can turn ON and OFF the AC mains supply, only when correct password is entered. This prevents the danger of electrocution of the technician who might be currently working with the high voltage lines and equipment. Password Protection […]
Build this 85V–265V AC to 12V 5A SMPS Design Using UC3843 (With Calculations)
This thing is a full SMPS design using UC3843, which takes wide AC input from 85V AC to 265V AC, then gives out 12V DC at 5A, so now it is like a universal input supply, which can be used for 110V AC supplies and also for 220V AC input supplies… Input Protection Stage At […]
Simple 220V AC Fan Regulator Circuit using Push Button
In this post we learn about this 220V AC electronic fan regulator circuit using a push button which changes speed step by step with each press. We press the button, then circuit cleans the signal, counts it properly, and then selects a relevant fixed speed level. Each button press moves the fan from OFF to […]
