Remote Control Tester

Here is the remote control tester circuit. This circuit is really a simple and easy tester for verifying the basic operations of an infrared remote control unit. It is low-cost and very easy to construct. The tester is designed around infrared receiver module TSOP1738. Operation of the remote control is identified by a tone from… Read More »

Long Range/Distance Infrared Transmitter

Here the long range/distance Infrared transmitter circuit, give you extra power for your Infrared transmitter. The majority of the IR remotes do the job reliably within a range of 5 metres. The circuit complexity increases in case you design the IR transmitter for good operation more than a extended distance, for example, 10 metres. To… Read More »

1Hz Clock Generator with Chip On Board (COB)

This is the 1Hz clock generator circuit with Chip On Board (COB). Commonly, the circuits to produce 1Hz clock for digital clock and counter circuits applications implement ICs in conjunction with a crystal and trimmer capacitors, etc. Even so, equivalent or improved accuracy could be obtained working with a chip-on-board (COB) device found inside a… Read More »

Heat Detector + Siren

This is the diagram of heat detector circuit which already integrated with siren circuit in the output. This circuit applies a complementary pair comprising NPN metallic transistor T1 (BC109) and PNP germanium transistor T2 (AC188) to detect heat (because of outbreak of fire, for example) in the area and activate a siren/alarm. The collector of… Read More »

Low-Cost and Simple Intercom

This is a low-cost and simple intercom circuit design. Some intercom circuits is build by applying integrated circuits. The circuit described right here utilizes 3 certainly transistors which easy to find on the electronic store. Even a newbie can assemble it on a piece of veroboard without difficulty. The circuit consists of a 3-stage resistor-capacitor… Read More »
