An LED music level indicator is a circuit that will respond to the connected music levels and illuminate a chain of LEDs sequentially in a push-pull switching manner, in accordance with the varying music intensity. Since the illumination level of the switching LED chain appear to extend forward and backward proportionately in response to the […]

Simple TV Transmitter Circuit (Audio and Video Combined)
The TV transmitter circuit presented in this post incorporates the European standard FM frequency for audio and Video up-links. Referring to the circuit below, Q1 is configured as a preamplifier for amplifying the audio input to be modulated. Circuit Description Q2 is fundamentally responsible for conducting a couple of important functions: It amplifies the carrier frequency […]
Simple Peltier Refrigerator Circuit
In this post I have explained a straightforward procedure for building a simple refrigerator using Peltier device for generating the required cooling effect inside the fridge. How Peltier Device Works We are all familiar with a Peltier device and know how it functions. A Peltier device is a 2-wire semiconductor device having two surfaces that […]
Simple Faraday Flashlight – Circuit Diagram and Working
In this article I will show how to construct a Faraday flashlight circuit using only a coil/magnet assembly which requires no battery. It’s not free energy, but it converts oscillatory motion to electricity, which can power the flashlight for a couple of minutes. This flashlight will be useful in emergency situations where no access to […]
Simple Frequency Meter Circuits – Analogue Designs
The following simple analogue frequency meter circuits can be used for measuring frequencies which may be either sine wave or square wave. The input frequency which is to be measured must be at least 25 mV RMS, for optimal detection and measurement. The design facilitates a relatively wide range of frequency measurement, right from 10 […]
Simple Digital Clock using LM8650 IC Circuit
The digital time clock explained here is a circuit which most electronic amateurs would love to make. You might have heard about digital clocks made from clock ICs such as the popular LM8361, MM5387 etc but these ICs could be today quite obsolete and/or complex to build. Circuit Operation The present design is much easier […]
