Simple Buck-Boost Converter Circuits Explained
In this post I have explained s few simple DC to DC buck-boost converter circuits which can be used for either stepping up the input DC voltage or stepping down the input DC voltage to specific output DC voltage levels. Since a buck-boost converter allows the input voltage to be either stepped up or stepped […]
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 […]

For a beginner in electronics, constructing basic electronic projects from a circuit diagram could be overwhelming. This quick guide is intended to assist newbies by enabling them handy details about electronic parts as well as regarding techniques of building circuits. We will examine elementary parts like resistors, capacitors, inductors, transformers and potentiometers. RESISTORS A resistor […]
6 Simple AC Bridge Circuits Explained
An AC bridge is a circuit which can be used for measuring parameters like capacitance, resistance, Inductance using differential method, by comparing them with known values of similar components, positioned diagonally across a bridge circuit, and through an analogue meter placed at the center of the bridge. Before we begin talking about the AC bridge […]
Simple Triac Triggering Circuits Explained
In this post I have explained the fundamental methods of triggering a triac, and also discuss the right way to connect the terminals of a triac. Triacs are solid-state bidirectional thyristors that can switch across both the AC half cycles on a 120-volt or 240-volt Ac power system. A triac could be activated (switched on and […]
