The first design below shows a simple workbench setup for testing all types CDI circuits. It uses a capacitive discharge ignition circuit along with a CDI coil to implement the testing procedure. Audio/Video Representation The circuit does not require any separate oscillator, rather the 100Hz from the bridge rectifier itself works like a pulsed trigger […]

Simple Crystal Tester Circuit
In this post I have explained how to build a simple crystal tester circuit using ordinary parts like transistors, resistors, diodes and capacitors. What is a Crystal A crystal can be used for making an electronic oscillator circuit by using the mechanical resonance of a piezoelectric vibrating crystal to generate an electrical frequency having a […]
Accurate Transistor Tester Circuits Explored
In this article we talk about a few simple yet accurate transistor tester circuits which can used to identify whether a transistor is good or bad. Note: Please test *only* BJTs and MOSFETs (enhancement or depletion) with these circuits. Simple Good/Bad Transistor Checker using a Single LED Do you have a lot of strange old transistors […]
Simple Soil Moisture Tester Circuit with a Single IC 741
A very simple mud or soil moisture tester circuit can be built by using a single opamp and a few passive components, I have explained the details through the following article. Circuit Objective After water and sunlight the earth or the soil is the next most important natural gift that this planet has provided us […]
