In this post I have explained a DC Motor controller which features a constant torque compensation for enabling the motor to run at a consistent speed irrespective of the load on it. Drawback of Ordinary Speed Controllers One drawback of the majority of simple speed controllers is they only provide the motor with a predetermined […]

Transformerless Constant Current LED Driver Circuit
In this post I have explained how just a single IC MBI6001 can be used as a transformerless constant current LED driver circuit for illuminating a chain of many LED in series. The MBI6001 series of ICs are designed to work with mains AC inputs and convert it into a lower voltage DC output which […]
100 Watt LED Constant Current Driver Circuit Diagram
You might have probably come across these fantastic high power, high efficiency LED modules and wondered how do you make these? Here I have explained how to make a 100 watt LED flashlight out of it? Introduction The article revises the datasheet of this LED module and explains a simple driver circuit which can be […]
3 Watt, 5 Watt LED DC to DC Constant Current Driver Circuit
The following article provides a simple yet very decent solution for driving powerful LEDs rated at 3 watt or 5 watt. Circuit Objective These 3 watt 5 watt and similar high watt LEDs are able to produce highly intense and powerful light outputs, however these are extremely vulnerable too with their operating parameter. I have […]
How to Make 1 A Constant Current LED Driver Circuit
In this article I have explained a simple 1 amp constant current LED driver circuit using the IC MBI6651 from MACROBLOCK. The IC has been specifically designed for operating high power LEDs safely by providing a constant current output. The circuit includes very few external components and therefore becomes very easy to assemble at home. […]
What is Constant Current Source – Facts Explained
In this post I will try to analyze what is constant current source and how it affects a load, or how it may be used with a load correctly for achieving the most efficient results. The following discussion between me and Mr. Girish will clearly explain what is CC or how constant current operates. How […]
