A electronic combination lock is a device which is designed to activate an electrical solenoid locking system whenever the correct combination of numbers are entered into an attached keypad. To build this type of electronic combination lock, normally an electronic circuit with a keypad is used. In the design I have explained in this article, […]

Types of Power Amplifier Classes Explained in Simple Words
In this post I am going to explain power amplifiers and their classification according to their output electrical characters and application. We will be exploring amplifier classes: A, B, AB, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, S and T briefly and yes, that’s a lot of amplifier types that are available in today’s electrical […]
Wheatstone Bridge Circuits Explained with Calculations
A Wheatstone Bridge circuit is commonly used to measure resistance, inductance, capacitance, and impedance. These are made up of four parts or arms that are joined in series in a diamond like bridge configuration. These four arms carry the individual components such as resistor, inductor or capacitor connected across the fur junctions. An alternating current (AC) or […]
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 […]
CMOS Astable, Bistable, Monostable Circuits Explained
In this article I have explained how to use the low-cost CD4001 and CD4011 quad 2-input gate CMOS integrated circuits in bistable, astable, and monostable multivibrator applications through forty different manners. We also learn how to enhance and modify these configurations to produce highly improved outputs from these multivibrators. When CMOS logic gates are configured […]
Types of Solar Panels, Solar Inverters Explained
In this article I have explained the main types of solar panels available in the market, and also discuss the different types solar inverters which are specifically compatible with these solar panels. Further in the article we will also discuss how the efficiency of a solar panel may be affected due to to bad weather, […]
