In this post I have explained how IC 555 can be used for making 10 different types of monostable multivibrator circuits, such as one-shot type, debounce preventor, retriggerable type, touch switch monostable circuit and many more. A monotsable multivibrator circuit is a configuration in which, a short momentary pulse at the input of the circuit […]

Simple SCR Battery Charger Circuit
In this post I have explained a simple yet accurate SCR triggered battery charger circuit which can be used effectively for charging all types of battery, which includes, lead acid battery, Ni-Cd battery banks, Li-Ion battery, etc. This SCR charger can be seen implemented in most automobile garages, and is very popular among auto mechanics, […]
Simple Anti-Theft Alarm Circuit to Protect Valuable Items
This easy yet useful security alarm circuit is designed to get triggered in response to even a brief movement of the unit, causing a loud alarm sound to set off. The circuit could be attached or installed on any desired gadget or asset which needs to be protected from theft. As soon as the gadget […]
Simple FET Circuits and Projects
The Field-Effect Transistor or the FET is a 3 terminal semiconductor device which is used for switching high power DC loads through negligible power inputs. The FET comes with some unique features such as a high input impedance (in the megohms) and with almost zero loading on a signal source or the attached preceding stage. […]
Simple Online UPS Circuit
In this post I have explained about the making of a simple online uninterruptible power supply (UPS) which guarantees a seamless transfer of AC mains supply to inverter mains supply for the load, due to the absence of cumbersome transfer switches or relays. What is an Online UPS As the name suggests, an online UPS […]
Simple Triac Phase Control Circuits Explored
In a triac phase control circuit, the triac is triggered ON only for specific portions of the AC half cycles, causing the load to operate only for that period of the AC waveform. This results in a controlled supply of power to the load. Triacs are popularly used as a solid-state replacement of relay for […]
