Reed Switch Sensor Module Explained with Circuit Diagram
Here we will try to understand this reed switch sensor module which may look small and nothing much, but it is actually very useful thing when we want to detect a magnetic field or just want to know if a magnet is coming closer or going away. This thing is called a reed switch sensor […]
Impact Collision Switch Sensor Module and Circuit Diagram
Here we are going to learn about a very interesting small sensor called the Impact Collision Switch Sensor Module. This module is super simple but very useful especially when we want to detect a shock, collision, hit or a sudden tap on a surface. Now let us go step-by-step to understand everything about it. What […]
3 Easy Capacitive Proximity Sensor Circuits Explored
In this post I will comprehensively discuss a 3 basic proximity sensor circuits with many application circuits and detailed features of the circuit. The first two capacitive proximity sensor circuits uses a simple IC 741 and IC 555 based concepts, while the last one is a bit more accurate and incorporates a precision IC PCF8883 […]
How to Connect and Use RCWL-0516 Microwave Motion Sensor
In this article I will comprehensively explain about the RCWL-0516 a microwave proximity motion sensor which uses Doppler radar. Here, I will elucidate the following points: What is RCWL-0516 It is yet another type of proximity motion sensor which can detect if someone has entered into an area, and raise an alarm or take an […]
Simple Shadow Sensor Alarm Circuit
This shadow detector circuit operates using two LDRs and effectively detects the difference between the light levels and triggers a loud audible warning siren. In circuits which uses a single LDR (photoresist), the detection may not be as sharp as with two LDRs discussed here.Operational details of the shadow detector circuit may be studied as […]
