Here we are talking about controlling things like lamps, motors, heaters, and other similar electrical loads. The devices we use for this purpose are called thyristor and triac, OK? Both these devices, thyristor and triac, they can actually do this job like simple switch ON/OFF or they can also adjust the power given to these […]

Incubator Using Arduino with Automatic Temperature and Humidity control
In this post I will show how to construct an incubator using Arduino which can self-regulate its temperature and humidity. This project was suggested by Mr. Imran yousaf who is an avid reader of this website. Introduction This project was designed as per the suggestions from Mr. Imran, but some additional modification is done to […]
Touch Volume Control Circuit
This touch volume control circuit has two touch pads which enable the user to increase or decrease the volume of an audio amplifier simply by touching the relevant touch pads. The advantages of this solid-state volume control are: very long life due to the absence of any wear and tear, quick and easy finger touch […]
Simple Tone Control Circuits
Tone control circuits are basically filter circuits which are used to filter audio frequency signals so that only the desired range of frequencies are allowed to pass to the amplifier and the loudspeakers. This enables the listener to customize the music output with either a high level of low frequency content through bass boost, or […]
2.4 GHz 10 Channel Remote Control Switch Circuit
In this post I will show how to construct a 10 channel remote control switch circuit based on ISM (industrial, Scientific and Medical) band. Introduction The ISM band is operated at 2.4 GHz, which can be used without licensing with reasonable power output. The proposed project is general purpose ON/OFF wireless switch, which can be […]
Arduino IR Remote Control Circuit
In this post I will show how to construct a customizable Arduino based IR (infrared) based wireless remote control switch, which consists of IR remote and a receiver, you may modify according to your needs. In the later part of the article I have explained about an upgraded foolproof version of an IR remote control […]
