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 […]

DC Biasing in Transistors – BJTs
In simple terms, biasing in BJTs may be defined as a process in which a BJT is activated or switched ON by applying a smaller magnitude of DC is across its base/emitter terminals so that its is able to conduct a relatively larger magnitude of DC across its collector emitter terminals. The working of a […]
Inductors in AC/DC Circuits Explained
In this post I have explained the response of inductors to DC and AC voltages as well as when applied with capacitors which is often used as a complementing part with an inductor. Properties of Inductor Inductors are known for their property of storing electrical energy in them in the form of magnetic energy. This […]
6 Useful DC Cell phone Charger Circuits Explained
A DC cell phone or mobile phone charger is a device which charges a cellphone from an available DC supply source. The device converts the unregulated DC source into a constant current and constant voltage output which becomes safe for any mobile phone charging. In this article I have explained how to build DC to […]
220V AC to 56V DC SMPS Circuit for 48V Battery Charging
In this article we will try to understand how to build a 220V AC to 48 V DC SMPS circuit for charging all types of 48V batteries, using the nice little IC IR2153. However, since 48V battery will require a 56V DC, so we will rather discuss a 220V to 56 V DC battery charger […]
Make this DC CDI Circuit for Motorcycles
The circuit presented here is for a DC-CDI which are used in motorcycles. A DC-CDI is the one in which the high voltage (200-400VDC) is converted from 12V supply voltage. Researched and Submitted by: Abu-Hafss Studying the circuit, we see that it has two parts i.e. the CDI unit, enclosed in the pink box and […]
