In this article I have explained a simple LED indicator timer circuit which can be used with board games for indicating the elapsed time or the time consumed by the player to complete his or her turn. The idea was requested by Mr. Shane Robins. Technical Specifications Hope all is well with you. I am relatively new […]

Make this Gravity LED Lamp Circuit
In this article we investigate a free energy device concept in the form of a gravity LED lamp circuit for illuminating an LED through force of gravity. The Circuit Concept Gravitational force is an awesome source of energy, amply available on this planet, and easily accessible, however, nobody yet has been able to convert this […]
How to Use Resistors with LED, Zener and Transistor
In this post I have explained how to use resistors while designing an electronic circuits using LEDs, zener diodes, or transistors. This article can be very useful for the new hobbyists who normally get confused with the resistor values to be used for a specific component and for the desired application. What is a Resistor […]
3 Watt LED Datasheet
In the following post I have explained the main technical features and specifications of 3 watt white LEDs. I have explained more regarding their operating parameters and safe-operating limitations. Main Features Extreme luminosity capability Extreme working life > 50K hours. Very Low thermal resistance. SMD technology allows embedded PCB type sodering. Completely UV free design Enhanced ESD protections Image Courtesy – https://www.led-display.cc/High-Power-LED/Q1B/LP5W-80-SERIES:-5-watt-high-power-LED.jpg […]
Cree XLamp XM-L LED Datasheet
The XLamp XM-LED can be considered as the highest performing, single die solid state LED module which is able to produce lights at ultra bright intensities. I have explained it’s datasheet, specifications. High Illumination Efficacy Due to it’s ultra bright and high efficiency values, the Xlamp becomes highly suitable for applications such as in automotive headlamps, stadium flood lights, […]
3 LED Battery Level Indicator Circuit
The proposed 3 LED battery level indicator can be typically used for monitoring a 12 V lead acid battery charge level, through 3 distinct LED illumination. The entire circuit is built using just a couple of BJTs , a few zener diodes, resistors and LEDs. Different Ways to Check Battery Voltage A hydrometer is perhaps […]
