In this post, we are going to see how to use an accelerometer with arduino and extract useful readings, which will be printed on serial monitor of IDE. We will also be exploring how accelerometer works in a nutshell and its applications. How the Accelerometers Works Accelerometer is an electromechanical device, which is used to […]

Simple LED Tubelight Circuit
An LED tube-light is lighting device built using high efficiency LEDs for illuminating a premise where it is installed, through the available AC mains supply. In this post I have explained the complete construction details of a simple LED light tube light circuit using 20 mA, 5 mm high bright white LEDs. The circuit can […]
Simple LED Music Level Indicator Circuit
An LED music level indicator is a circuit that will respond to the connected music levels and illuminate a chain of LEDs sequentially in a push-pull switching manner, in accordance with the varying music intensity. Since the illumination level of the switching LED chain appear to extend forward and backward proportionately in response to the […]
Infrared (IR) LED Flood Light Circuit
An infrared flood light is a circuit that creates an illumination over a wide range of area using infrared frequency. This infrared illuminated area can be perfectly visualized through specialized infrared gasses and IR cameras, but can be totally invisible to naked eye. In this post we study a simple infra red based flood light […]
LED Strobe Light Circuit with Chasing, Flashing Effects
The proposed LED strobe light circuit will not only flash a group of LEDs with strobe pulses, but will also create a sequentially chasing effect over the strobing LEDs. You might be quite familiar with colorful LED strobe lights, and should have seen them pretty commonly in parties and discotheques. Let’s see how we can […]
Rotating Beacon LED Simulator Circuit
In this post I have explained a simple LED flashing beacon circuit which exactly simulates a rotating police beacon light by generating alternating pulses of suddenly rising and fading illumination effect on the connected LED. The idea was requested by Mr. Ankit Agarwal Technical Specifications Can you advice on how to make the following circuit […]
