In this brief tutorial I have explained how to design a customized UPS circuit at home using ordinary components such as a few NAND ICs and a some relays. What is an UPS UPS which stands for uninterruptible power supply are inverters designed to provide a seamless AC mains power to a connected load without […]

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 […]
How to Build an Ozone Water/Air Sterilizer Circuit – Disinfecting Water with Ozone Power
We are all familiar with thundering and lightning during stormy weathers and know how the effect is responsible of producing a lot of ozone and negative ions in the atmosphere. The same concept has been employed in the proposed water and air sterilizer circuit. Properties of Ozone Ozone is a pale blue gas having a […]
Homemade Solar MPPT Circuit – Poor Man’s Maximum Power Point Tracker
MPPT stands for maximum power point tracker, which is an electronic system designed for optimizing the varying power output from a solar panel module such that the connected battery exploits the maximum available power from the solar panel. Introduction NOTE: The discussed MPPT circuits in this post do not employ the conventional control methods like “Perturb and […]
Low Power MOSFET 200mA, 60 Volts Datasheet
In this post I have explained the main specs and pinouts of a small signal, low power N-channel mosfet 2N7000G. Mosfets vs BJTs When we talk of mosfets we normally associate it with high current, high voltage, and with high power applications. However, just like ordinary BJTs, small signal mosftes are also available which may […]
400V 40A Darlington Power Transistor Datasheet Specifications
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 […]
