6 Best Ultrasonic Circuit Projects for Hobbyists and Engineers
In this post I have explained a 6 very useful yet simple ultrasonic transmitter and receiver circuit projects which can used for many crucial applications, such as ultrasonic remote control, burglar alarms, electronic door locks, and for listening to frequencies in the ultrasonic range which are normally inaudible to human ears. Introduction Many commercial ultrasonic […]
3 Best Transformerless Inverter Circuits
As the name suggests, an inverter circuit that converts a DC input into AC without depending on an inductor or a transformer is called a transformerless inverter. Since an inductor based transformer is not employed, the input DC is normally equal to the peak value of the AC generated at the output of the inverter. […]
2 Best Long Duration Timer Circuits Explained
In this post I have explained how to make 2 accurate long duration timer circuits ranging from 4 hours to 40 hours, which can be upgraded further for getting even longer delays. The concepts are fully adjustable. A timer in electronics is essentially a device which is used for producing time delay intervals for switching […]
10 Best Timer Circuit Diagrams using IC 555
The circuits I have explained here are 10 best small timer circuits using the versatile chip IC 555, which generates predetermined time intervals in response to momentary input triggers. The time intervals can be used for keeping a relay controlled load ON or activated for the desired amount of time and an automatic switch OFF […]
5 Best IC 555 Oscillator Circuits Explored
In this post I have explained how to build and optimize 5 useful IC 555 oscillator circuits, whose waveforms can be further enhanced for generating complex sound effects. Overview The basic mode that is normally employed for making IC 555 oscillators is the astable circuit mode. If we look at the astable circuit shown below, […]
