Lamp Outage Detector Circuit for Car Turn Signal
The O.E.M. turn signal flashing units installed in automobiles have two basic functions i.e. Flasher and Lamp outage detection. These flashers are usually built with an 8-pin IC like U2044B, U6432B etc. which are specifically made for automotive flashers. Designed and Written By Abu-Hafss Circuit Operation NORMAL OPERATION: -input = Square wave between 11.89V – […]
Car Warning Tone Generator for Ignition, Headlight, Turn Lights
The circuit explained here is basically a warning signal generator designed largely for automobile application. It triggers a warning signal in a situation when the turn indicator switch is not restored back to its neutral status. The circuit is especially useful for all those cars where the turn indicator system is not supported with an […]
