12 Simple IC 4093 Circuits and Projects Explained
The 4093 is a 14-pin package containing four positive-logic, 2-input NAND Schmitt trigger gates as shown in the following figure. It is possible to operate the four NAND gates separately or collectively. The individual logic gates of the IC 4093 works in the following manner. As you can see each gate has two inputs (A […]
10 Simple IC 555 Monostable Circuits Explored
In this post I have explained how IC 555 can be used for making 10 different types of monostable multivibrator circuits, such as one-shot type, debounce preventor, retriggerable type, touch switch monostable circuit and many more. A monotsable multivibrator circuit is a configuration in which, a short momentary pulse at the input of the circuit […]
7 Easy Sawtooth Waveform Generator Circuits using UJT, IC 555, and Transistors
In this post I have explained how to build 7 types of easy sawtooth generator circuits, using BJTs, UJTs, and IC 555. In a sawtooth waveform the voltage increases slowly in a slanting manner or diagonally, then as soon as it reaches the peak, the waveform voltage suddenly drops to zero. Once it drops to […]
