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 […]

Switching OFF Lights in a Periodic Sequence
In this post I have explained a circuit that will switch off a group of lamps in sequence with a predetermined delay rate, as set by the user through a built in pot. The ideas was requested by Mr. Azam Jamal Technical Specifications I want to make a circuit which works like: I have 9nos […]
Fading an LED ON/OFF – Arduino Basics
In this post I have explained a basic Arduino function where I have explained the process of fading an LED ON/OFF through some basic code implementations. Creating a Fading Effect We see how to use an analogwrite() function in order to implement a fading ON/OFF of an LED. The function incorporates PWM pulses across a […]
Control a Relay ON OFF Using SIM Card, Mobile Phone, and Arduino
This project I will explain how we can control a relay remotely using a SIM card and a normal mobile phone, with help of Arduino and a GSM module. The relay can be turned ON or OFF by sending an SMS or by making a phone call to the SIM card placed inside the GSM […]
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 […]
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 […]
