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 […]

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 to Connect Car LED Downlight: Circuit Diagram
A car LED downlight available in the market can be easily integrated to an existing car battery if its rating is identical to the battery’s voltage rating. I have explained more regarding one such request sent by Mr. Allwyn Siqueira. How to Connect Downlight to 12V Car Battery Hi Swagatam, I’ve just spent the last […]
How to Connect 5mm LEDs to a 3.7V Li-Ion Cell
In this article I have explained regarding how to connect and illuminate a few 5mm LEDs using a 3.7V Li-Ion cell, normally used in cell phones. I keep receiving requests from the readers who seem confused with the connection details of 5mm LEds with a 3.7V Li-ion cell. The requests inspired me to write this […]
How to Connect a Relay through an Opto-Coupler
In the following post I have explained how to drive a relay by using an isolated method, or through an optocoupler device. We will learn three methods, first method is by connecting relay directly with the optocoupler output pins, second method is by using external PNP transistors, and third method is by using external NPN […]
How To Calculate and Connect LEDs in Series and Parallel
In this article I have explained how to calculate LEDs in series and parallel using a simple formula and configure your own personalized LED displays, now you don’t just have to wonder how to wire led lights? but actually can do it, know the details here. These lights are known not only for their dazzling […]
