Ultrasonic Motion Detector

This is a ultrasonic motion detector (or movement detector) circuit. The circuit claimed has a high movement sensitivity. Even air moving (hot air rising, wind blowing) will trigger it when the trimpot is set near the most sensitive position. The transmitter sends out a steady ultrasonic tone at 40kHz. At this frequency the wavelength is… Read More »

Stereo Digital Volume Control

Here is the circuit diagram of stereo digital volume control. This circuit could possibly be applied for upgrading your manual volume management within a stereo amplifier circuit. In this particular circuit, push-to-on switch S1 controls the forward (volume enhance) operation of the two channels while a identical switch S2 controls reverse (volume reduce) operation of… Read More »
