Simple Capacitive Discharge Ignition (CDI) Circuit
In this post I have explained the circuit for a simple, universal capacitive discharge ignition circuit or a CDI circuit using a standard ignition coil and a solid state SCR based circuit. For an audio/video explanation, you can watch the following video representation: How Ignition System in Vehicles Work The ignition process in any vehicle […]
Electronic 12V DC Capacitive Discharge Ignition (CDI) Circuits
In the following post I have explained a simple yet enhanced 12V capacitive discharge ignition system which derives its operating voltage from the battery instead of the alternator for generating the igniting sparks. Since it works independently from the alternator voltage, without depending on a pickup coil signal, it is able to function more efficiently […]
3 Easy Capacitive Proximity Sensor Circuits Explored
In this post I will comprehensively discuss a 3 basic proximity sensor circuits with many application circuits and detailed features of the circuit. The first two capacitive proximity sensor circuits uses a simple IC 741 and IC 555 based concepts, while the last one is a bit more accurate and incorporates a precision IC PCF8883 […]
How to Use TTP223 Capacitive Touch Switch Module [Pinouts Explained]
In this article I have explained how to connect and use the TTP223 capacitive touch switch module. These modules work using 2.5V to 5V. They are all pre-debounced, all you need is to provide the DC supply across the VC and GND terminals, and you get an output in the middle. So it is really […]
Contactless Sensors – Infrared, Temperature/Humidity, Capacitive, Light
In this article I have explained a few highly advanced contactles sensors such as infrared sensor, temperature sensor, humidity sensor, light sensor which can be used for crucial and sensitive industrial applications, and manufacturing plants. Texas Instruments (TI) introduced the growth of its industry-leading sensing integrated circuits with the inclusion of 4 innovative products that […]
