The IC UC3854, what it does is, it helps in active power factor correction, right? Now normally, if we don’t correct the power factor, then power system will pull current from the AC mains in a way that’s not a nice sine wave but rather distorted. This IC takes care of all the control stuff […]

Designing Simple Power Supply Circuits
In this post I have explained how to design and build a simple power supply circuit right from the basic design to the reasonably sophisticated power supply having extended features. Power Supply is Indispensable Whether it’s an electronic noob or an expert engineer, all require this indispensable piece of equipment called the power supply unit. This is because no electronics […]
Designing a Customized Battery Charger Circuit
I have designed and published a variety of battery charger circuits in this website, however the readers often get confused while selecting the right battery charger circuit for their individual applications. And I have to explicitly explain each of the readers regarding how to customize the given battery charger circuit for their specific needs. This […]
Designing a Powerful 48V 3KW Electric Vehicle
In this post I have explained a few important parameters related to the making of a 48V 3KW electric vehicle using solar panel, including a full fledged circuit diagram for the same. The idea was requested by Mr. Sreejith. Circuit Objectives and Requirements I am Sreejith Rajan a b.tech student doing a project on electric […]
Inductor Working and Designing, with Formulas
In this post I have explained all the basics of inductors, its working principle, and how to design inductors with the help of formulas and calculations. Inductors are vastly used from mobile, laptop chargers to high-end communication equipment like mobile base stations to the satellites orbiting the earth. Let us take a deep dive into […]
Designing a Grid-Tie Inverter Circuit
A grid tie inverter works quite like a conventional inverter, however the power output from such inverter is fed and tied with the AC mains from the utility grid supply. As long as the mains AC supply is present, the inverter contributes its power to the existing grid mains supply, and stops the process when […]
