In this article, we discuss Thyristor Switching using Snubber Circuit, a thyristor acts as a switch in power electronics applications that handle high voltage and high current. Thyristor also called SCR (Silicon Controlled Rectifier) which turns ON by gate signal and to turn it OFF the current must stop; but when turning ON and OFF […]

Basic Circuit for Multi-Way Lamp Switching
We can control one bulb from many places using Basic Circuit for Multi-Way Lamp Switching. People also refer to three-way switches as two-way switches and they refer to four-way switches as intermediate switches; also they commonly use both types in multi-way switching systems. Firstly, three-way switches go at both ends like at hallway doors and […]
Simple Tilt Sensor Switch Circuit
Simple Tilt Sensor Switch Circuit control ON/OFF of LED or buzzer, also this tilt sensor work like small seesaw switch. In this circuit , inside a sensor there can be a small metal ball. When sensor stand straight the ball touch two points and then the current can pass and when sensor tilts the ball […]
Simple Door Keyhole Light Circuit
When ON, small device like Simple Door Keyhole Light Circuit gives light to keyhole, as it helps to put key in hole when light is low. Also, it uses light sensor and circuit to check light level, hence, to switch it by light we used transistor and LDR. Circuit Working: Parts List: Components Values Quantity […]
Simple Electronic Candle Circuit using LDR
This article for Simple Electronic Candle Circuit using LDR is fun and easy project to make fake candle with LED, as it uses LDR to make LED flicker like real flame and turns ON when its dark; also LDR controls the LED. Furthermore, in bright light the LDR has high resistance so LED stays OFF […]
Boost Converter Circuit using IC 555
A Boost Converter Circuit using the IC 555 increases a low DC voltage to a higher DC voltage; in this circuit, the IC 555 generates a PWM signal that controls the switching components and regulates the output voltage. Also, other parts used are IRFZ44N, inductor, diode, resistor and capacitor. Circuit Working: Parts List: Components Values […]
