Despite its simplicity, the Battery Low Voltage Alarm circuit has a very important function. It forewarns you of approaching battery failure so that you may run to the store and get replacement cells before your equipment stops functioning entirely. Because of its compact size and low current need, it may be integrated into the devices […]

5 KVA to 10 KVA Automatic Voltage Stabilizer – 220 Volts, 120 Volts
Voltage stabilizer in the range of kVAs are powerful AC voltage stabilizer units specially designed for controlling and stabilizing high voltage fluctuations, for high power electrical equipment. In this article I have explained an easy to build a 7 stage high wattage in the order of 5000 to 1000 watts stabilizer circuit which can be […]
Simple High voltage Generator Circuit – Arc Generator
A simple high voltage generator circuit is explained here which can be used to step up any DC level to about 20 times or depending upon the transformer secondary rating. Circuit Operation As can be visualized in the shown high voltage arc generator circuit diagram, it employs a standard transistor blocking oscillator configuration for generating […]
Simple Voltage-to-Current and Current-to-Voltage Techniques – By James H. Reinholm
There are many types of voltage-to-current and current-to-voltage converter circuits, and most of them use a combination of opamps and transistors to achieve a high level of accuracy. But when high accuracy isn’t necessary, a simple converter of this type can be made using just one or two resistors. Resistor as Voltage to Current Converter […]
Voltage Regulator Circuits and Projects
In this article I will comprehensively discuss how to make customized transistorized voltage regulator circuits in fixed modes and also variable modes. All linear power supply circuits which are designed to produce a stabilized, constant voltage and current output fundamentally incorporate transistor and zener diode stages for getting the required regulated outputs. These circuit projects […]
3 Terminal Fixed Voltage Regulators – Working and Application Circuits
The popular 3 terminal fixed regulators available today are in the form of IC 7805, IC 7809, IC 7812, IC 7815, and IC 7824, which correspond to fixed voltage outputs of 5 V, 9 V, 12 V, 15V, and 24 V. These are called fixed voltage regulators since these ICs are able to produce excellent […]
