DIY Power Bank using T856-C Module? How to Connect
So here we are talking about one small board called T856-C. We use this little module when we want to make one DIY power bank at home, like those we use to charge phones and other USB things. It can charge one 3.7V Li-ion battery like 18650 and also give us 5V output to run […]
400V 40A Darlington Power Transistor Datasheet Specifications: MJ10022, MJ10023
In this post we investigate the datasheet and technical specifications of a 400V, 40A (ampere) power Darlington transistor MJ10022 and MJ10023, and also learn the main features of the device. We mostly find it difficult when it comes to finding a BJT with extreme voltage and current specifications such as with a 400V and 40 […]
BLDC Ceiling Fan Circuit for Power Saving
Within the next few years we may find all conventional capacitor-start type of ceiling fans getting replaced with BLDC ceiling fan circuits, since the concept allows the operation to be extremely efficient and save power by more than 50%. Replacing Capacitor Start Fan with BLDC Fan Just as the traditional incandescent lamps today are almost […]
Make this Amplifier Power Meter Circuit
Music Amplifiers have always intrigued us due to their massive amplifying capabilities which completely changes the dimensions of the delivered music outputs. Fundamentally it’s the power of the amplifier that’s always on the scanner and we find folks getting too obsessed by the power rating of their procured amplifier unit. Introduction However many of us […]
Digital Thermometer Circuit – Uses a Solar Cell for Power
The articles explains a digital thermometer circuit project that works without a battery. Instead of a battery the circuit utilizes a small solar cell and operates by deriving power from the ambient light available from the surrounding light sources. This allows the circuit to be extremely compact, light weight, versatile and hassle free while measuring […]
