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 […]

ON/OFF Relay Switch Circuit using Reflection Sensor
This 220 V ON/OFF electronic relay switch can be toggled ON/OFF simply by alternately bringing your finger close to the reflection sensor CNY70. About CNY70 CNY70 is an infrared reflecting sensor comprised of an infrared emitting diode and a phototransistor housed in a tiny plastic container. The sensor operates by generating infrared light and sensing […]
Delay OFF Lamp Timer Circuit
This delay off lamp timer circuit will automatically switch OFF a connected lamp after a predetermined time has elapsed. This time delay can be adjusted with a variable resistor or a potentiometer. The circuit is initiated by pressing a push button, which causes the connected lamp to switch ON. The lamp will continue to remain […]
Clap Switch Circuits with Relay ON/OFF: [Tested]
The clap switch circuits explained here will toggle a connected load ON and OFF in response to alternate clap sounds? Here I have explained 4 unique and simple designs which can be selected as per user preference. The article talks about what the title suggests – a clap switch. A small electronic circuit when built […]
Password Controlled AC Mains ON/OFF Switch
In this post I will show how to construct a password based mains ON/OFF switch circuit, which can turn ON and OFF the AC mains supply, only when correct password is entered. This prevents the danger of electrocution of the technician who might be currently working with the high voltage lines and equipment. Password Protection […]
Controlling LED Strip Light ON/OFF and Brightness with any Remote Control
In this post I will show how to construct LED strip controller circuit using Arduino, which can turn ON/OFF and decrease/increase brightness of LEDs using ordinary IR (Infrared) remote. What is LED Strip Light? (For noobs) If you are not familiar with LED strip lights, let’s understand what it is. LED strips (sometimes called as […]
