Timer for Geyser Circuit Diagram


The circuit comprises a timer IC 555 wired as an astable multivibrator with adjustable time period of 15 seconds. The astable output after inversion by an inverter drives decade counters IC3 and IC4 (each IC 7490) connected in cascade.

 Timer for Geyser Circuit Diagram


The decade counters output is connected to decoders IC5 and IC6 (each IC 7442), respectively. The decoder outputs (Q8 outputs of IC5 and IC6) are fed to inverters and the inverter outputs, in turn, are fed to an AND gate. The AND output is connected to the reset pin of the astable multivibrator built around another timer IC 555 to sound the alarm. Now you can turn off the geyser.

A green LED (LED1) has been used as the power supply indicator. Switch on the timer and the geyser at the same time. When the alarm sounds, it means that the water in the geyser has heated up and can be used.You can assemble the timer circuit on a general-purpose PCB and install it near your bathroom so that both the timer circuit and the geyser can be switched on simultaneously.

After the siren sounds, if required, we can increase the time by another 22 minutes for geyser by resetting the circuit by pushing reset switches S1 and S2 momentarily. If you want to change the preset time of the geyser, the same can be easily done by combining appropriate outputs of IC5 and IC6 using DIP switches (S3 and S4) while keeping in mind IC5 outputs (Q0 through Q9) are spaced 15 seconds apart and IC6 outputs are spaced 150 seconds (2.5 minutes) apart.

Caution. Please note that the timer circuit has no connection with the geyser circuit. The geyser works off 220V AC, while the timer works off 5V DC.

 This timer circuit for geyser sounds an alarm after the set timing of 22 minutes when the water is heated up.

NE566 Function Generator Circuit Diagram

The NE566 Function Generator is a Voltage-Controlled Oscillator of exceptional linearity with buf fered square wave and triangle wave outputs. The frequency of oscillation is determined by an external resistor and capacitor and the voltage applied to the control terminal. The Oscillator CAN be programmed over a ten-to-one frequency range by proper selection of an external resistance and modulated over a ten-to-one range by the control voltage, with exceptional linearity.  FMAX = 1 MHz     WIDE 1000:1 Continuous Sweep Possible  NE566 Function Generator Circuit Diagram Pdf Datasheet  Sourced by : Circuitsstream

Transceiver Homebrew QRP SSB 80M Band

Radio communication transceiver is a radio transmitter at the same time the plane doubles as a radio receiver used for communication purposes. It consists of the transmitter and the receiver are assembled in an integrated way. In mulamula generation, the transmitter or receiver or transmitter and receiver sections are assembled separately and is part of a stand sendirisendiri and can work well sendirisendiri Currently employed both parts are integrated in turn. Aircraft simple transmitter consists of an oscillator generating radio vibration and this vibration after vibration boarded with our voice, in a technique called dimodulir radio, then by the antenna is converted into radio waves and transmitted. As we know that the sound waves we can not reach long distances, although its power is quite large, while the radio waves with a relatively small force can reach a distance of thousands of kilometers. In order for our voice can reach a far distance, then our voice superimposed on radio w...
