Simple and Low Cost Dew Sensor
This is a simple and low cost dew sensor circuit that can be used to switch off any gadget automatically in case of excessive humidity. Dew (condensed moisture) adversely affects the normal performance of sensitive electronic devices. The main part of this circuit is a low cost dew sensor element (resistor type). Although dew sensor… Read More »
3V Strobe Light Miniature
This is the circuit diagram of 3V strobe light miniature. The strobe lights are generally used to create nice looking visual effects in disco halls and auditoria. This post explain how to build the circuit of a battery operated portable miniature strobe light, using inexpensive components. For convenience and simplicity, an ordinary neon lamp is… Read More »
Home Telephone Call Recorder
This is the circuit connection of home telephone call recorder that uses very few components. In order to understand its working, we must first have the basic knowledge of standard telephone wiring and a stereo plug. In some countries, landline telephones primarily use RJ11 wiring, which has two wires—tip and ring. While tip is the… Read More »
Guitar Effect Octave Fuzz
This guitar effect unit is great sounding octave fuzz, with an optional mode of just fuzz. The fuzz is really a absolutely rectified signal and is fairly chewy. For some the Fuzz alone could possibly not be loud enough, this could be fixed by raising the value of the 820 ohm resistor and lowering the… Read More »
DC Motor Controller Project Kit
DC Motor Controller Project Kit There are three ways to vary the speed of DC motors: Use a gear-box. Use a series resistor. Measure the current drawn by the motor and then calculate the value of a series resistor needed to drop the voltage applied to the motor. Less voltage means the motor will slow… Read More »
LED Indicator for 220V AC Mains
This is the schematic diagram of LED indicator for 220V AC Mains which can be used to indicate that the cable lines is connected to 220v electrical installations. The current through the LED is not limited to the resistor, but the capacitance of the capacitor. The capacitance can be selected so that the current passing… Read More »
