In this post I have explained how to make a simple 3 phase brushless DC motor driver circuit. The circuit employs the popular IRS2330 3-phase driver IC The presented idea looks simple since most of the technicalities is taken care of efficiently by the IC itself, it’s all about connecting the relevant pinouts with the […]

Easy H-Bridge MOSFET Driver Module for Inverters and Motors
If you are wondering if there’s an easy way to implement an H-bridge driver circuit without using the complex bootstrapping stage, the following idea will precisely solve your query. In this article I have explained how to build an universal full-bridge or H-bridge MOSFET driver circuit, using P-channel and N-channel MOSFETs, which can be used […]
2 Simple MOSFET Gate Driver Circuits using BJTs
Very often we see that output coming from a microcontroller, oscillator, comparator, or PWM stage is just not strong enough for driving a power MOSFET directly, it gives signal, yes, but gate does not respond properly unless some decent current reaches there. A MOSFET gate behaves like a small capacitor, so now unless that gate […]
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 […]
CREE XM-L T6 LED Driver Circuit – Specifications and Practical Application
This article explains how to illuminate a Cree XM-L T6 LED using a current controlled driver circuit while the supply input is from a battery, or in case a mains SMPS is intended as the driver unit. The idea was requested by Mr. Jaco. Technical Specifications Thanks for the great advice and circuits! Have you […]
How to Design Simple LED Driver Circuits
In this article I have explained how to design your own customized, simple LED driver circuits at home. We will learn how to calculate specific LED configurations for applying the LEDs with appropriate LED driver power supplies. In these driver power supplies I have explained two concepts one by using SMPS boards and the other […]
