The interfacing of power devices like BJTs, and MOSFETs with Arduino output is a crucial configuration which allows switching high power loads through low power outputs of an Arduino. In this article we elaborately discuss the correct methods of using or connecting transistors like BJTs and mosfets with any microcontroller or an Arduino. Such stages […]

How to Connect Resistors in Series and Parallel
There are three ways to interconnect resistors: series, parallel and in combination of series/parallel. When resistors are joined in series, the current passing via one resistor also passes through the next. When resistors are joined in parallel, they are wired across each other, resulting in the same voltage across each resistor. When resistors are connected […]
How to Connect Diodes in Parallel
In this post we systematically discuss how to connect diodes in parallel for getting upgrading the overall current specifications of the assembly. This requires special circuit arrangement to ensure uniform current distribution between the devices. Whenever an inductor based load is involved in a DC circuit, incorporating a back EMF protection diode or a freewheeling […]
How a Connect a Potentiometer
In this article we study how potentiometers work and try to understand how to connect potentiometers in electronic circuits. How Potentiometers Work Potentiometers, or pots as these are called in short form are passive electronic devices which are basically just variable resistors, or resistors whose values can be altered from zero maximum within the given […]
HX710B Air Pressure Sensor Datasheet, How to Connect
The HX710B Air Pressure Sensor Module monitors the air’s pressure in the range of 0 to 40 kilopascals (kPa) and turns it into an electrical impulse which microcontrollers or other electrical gadgets can interpret and read. It is a common and frequently utilized sensor in a wide range of applications that demand precise pressure sensing, […]
