AC 220V Over Current Monitor and Cut OFF Circuit
The proposed AC mains 220 V load over current cut off circuit continuously monitors the current flowing through a connected load. If this current increases beyond a certain preset level, the circuit trips the relay and disconnects the load from the AC. Basic Working This 220 V over current cut off circuit is indeed subject […]
Child Crying Monitor Circuit using Power Line Communication
In this child crying monitor circuit when the baby wakes up in their room, the parents are immediately notified, even if they are in another room of their home. A sensor detects the crying sound accompanying the wake-up. After appropriate processing, it sends a signal through the 220V power lines. The receiver, connected to any […]
Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) Radiation Monitor Circuit
ELF stands for Extremely Low Frequency, which is an electromagnetic radiation generated by most of out household electrical equipment. Regarding the effect and severity of ELF fields on human health, debate remains heated. However, I believe there is enough data for us enthusiasts to adopt a conservative stance on the level of exposure we must […]
Ni-Cd Low Battery Monitor Circuit using Lambda Diode
The main feature of this lambda-diode low battery indicator for Ni-Cd batteries is that, the circuit itself consumes almost zero current, until the set low threshold level is reached and the indicator LED is illuminated. This feature makes the circuit very suitable for many low voltage battery operated systems, like radios, watches, timers, alarms, remote […]
Mains High Low Voltage Protection Circuit with Delay Monitor
In this post I have explained an upgraded version of my previous mains 220V/120V high-low voltage cut off protection circuit which now includes a delayed restoration of power for the load with 3 LED power status indicators. The idea was requested by one of the dedicated members of this website. Circuit Objectives and Requirements Main […]
