Power ON Delay Circuit using IC 555 give time gap between power ON and circuit starts. When trigger comes, IC 555 work in monostable mode and give one output pulse for set time. Resistor R1 and capacitor C2 make timing part for delay. Output stay low with circuit OFF when capacitor is charging. When power […]
Simple Decimal Counter Circuit
In this article for Simple Decimal Counter Circuit instead of count in binary (0 to 1) the decimal counter count in base is 10 (0 to 9). One simple and main way to make it: Use Decade Counter IC which is good for beginners. The IC like 4017 is easy to find and can already […]
Automobile Brake Failure Indicator Circuit
Automobile Brake Failure Indicator Circuit is backup system. It tell driver if brake system have a problem. It uses electric parts to check brake and if problem comes then it show light or make sound. This circuit work only in cars with negative grounding. It also give signal if brake switch does not work. In […]
Panic Alarm Button Circuit using IC 555
Make cheap and easy Panic Alarm Button Circuit using IC 555. IC 555 work like bistable circuit with two states: alarm ON and alarm OFF. Press panic button, timer start and stay ON until reset button is pressed. Timer give high output, turns ON transistor and then LED light and buzzer makes sound. Circuit Working: […]
Simple Current Limiting Circuit using IC LM317/LM338
Current going to load is controlled by Simple Current Limiting Circuit using ICs LM317/LM338. These chips also work as current limiters if set properly. Power comes in as Vin. LM317/LM338 have 3 pins: input, output and adjust. Vin goes to input pin. Output pin (Vout) goes to load and gives limited current. Circuit Working: Parts […]
Air Flow Detection Circuit
Air Flow Detection Circuit means basic electric circuit to check if air is moving or not. People use this in machines or home projects to watch air flow. In this project we make very simple circuit to see if air is moving. We used broken AC bulb and few cheap parts to feel air. This […]
