Most electric kettles do not produce a whistle and just switch off when they have boiled. Fitting a box of electronics directly onto an electric kettle (or even inside!) to detect when the kettle has boiled is obviously out of the question. The circuit shown here detects when the kettle switches off, which virtually all kettles do when the water has boiled. In this way, the electronics can be housed in a separate box so that no modification is required to the kettle. The box is prefer-ably a type incorporating a mains plug and socket.  In this application, the current flowing in coil L1 provides a magnetic field that actuates reed switch S1. Since the current drawn by the kettle element is relatively large (typically 6 to 8 amps), the coil may consist of a few turns of wire around the reed switch. The reed switch is so fast it will actually follow the AC current flow through L1 and produce a 100-Hz buzz. The switching circuit driven by the reed switch must, therefore, disregard t...

This ia a Power Electronics Inverter Complementary Output Variable Frequency Project. This project is under:, power supplies, Inverters , complementary output variable frequency inverter . In this circuit U1 is a 4060 12-stage binary ripple counter that is used as a free-running oscillator; its frequency of oscillation is: 1/2.2 CIR2.   Complementary Output Variable Frequency inverter Circuit Diagram  The output of U1 is applied to U2, a 14-stage binary ripple counter that provides square-wave outputs of lfz, 1/4, `is, and `lls of the clock frequency. These signals are combined in U3 and U4 to provide a complementary drive for Q1 and Q2. Outputs from U3 and U4 are ac-coupled to Q1 and Q2 via C2 and C4, respectively. R3 and R4 adjust tbe gate drive to Q1 and Q2. Q1 and Q2 alternately draw current through opposing sides of the primary to synthesize an ac input voltage at a given frequency.  Only one side of the primary of T2 is driven at one time, so maximum power ou...

The first thing you will notice is the clever circuitry. Some of the design goes against everything we have learnt in electronics. That’s why we have to study other people’s designs and realise “the more you know, the more you realise you don’t know.” The oscillator circuit is very interesting, but first we will look at the RF oscillator. The doorbell operates on the 303MHz band and the 30 metre range (100ft) is obtained without the use of an antenna! The circuit is actually radiating from the printed track of the tank circuit. The Tank Circuit is a single-turn coil and a small capacitor (5p & 4p in parallel). In this project we show how to add a small antenna to the circuit to get double the range – plus two other improvements to increase the range. Some of the improvements will load the circuit and alter the frequency at which it operates. Others can be done without any effect on the circuit. Fortunately, the transmitting stage is what we call “tight” and is not affected by surro...

Small circuit to run a LED on line voltage (English) This little circuit allows to connect a LED to line voltage. A LED can not handle with 230V AC and needs a current which is limted to ca. 15mA. The first issue is simply solved with a diode which eliminates the voltage in reverse-biasing. The current is limited by the combination of the resistor and capacitor. Used at AC capacitors work as frequency dependent resistors. You can simply calculate the capacitive resistance of the capacitor by the following formula: Based on a frequency of 50Hz and a capacity of 220nF you get a reactance of ca. 16kΩ. This is just perfect for a LED . The resistor prevents that the capacitor does not charge that abruptly. Hinweis Attention. This circuit works with life threatening line voltage. All parts of this circuit are connected to the grid! You have to make sure that it is not possible to touch any parts of the circuit at any time. You have to unplug the circuit everytime you want to check it. Part...

Small projects of digital electronics are an affordable option for students, teachers and parents as they do not require expensive laboratory and fully stocked. Many young people want to learn about digital electronics and build their own devices as well as work with the parts of a computer and analyze how the circuits of the digital world work, but can not do in their classrooms or at home because it is too expensive.

This Electronic Inverter Project low-cost and very simple build 500W low-cost 12V to 220V inverter circuit project. Using this circuit you can convert the 12V dc in to the 220V Ac. In this circuit 4047 is use to generate the square wave of 50hz and amplify the current and then amplify the voltage by using the step transformer. 12V to 220V inverter Circuit Diagram: How to calculate transformer rating: The basic formula is P=VI and between input output of the transformer we have Power input = Power output For example if we want a 220W output at 220V then we need 1A at the output. Then at the input we must have at least 18.3V at 12V because: 12V*18.3 = 220v*1 So you have to wind the step up transformer 12v to 220v but input winding must be capable to bear 20A.

This is the Simple Low Loss Step Down Converter Project. This circuit project arose from the need of the author to provide a 5 V output from the 24 V battery of a solar powered genera-tor. Although solar power is essentially free it is important not to be wasteful especially for small installations; if the battery runs flat at midnight you’ve got a long wait before the sun comes up again. The basic requirement was to make an efficient step-down converter to power low voltage equipment; the final design shown here accepts a wide input voltage from 9 to 60 V with an output current of 500 mA. The efficiency is very good even with a load of 1 mA the design is still better than a standard linear regulator. The low quiescent current (200 µA) also plays a part in reducing losses.  Some of the components specified (particularly the power MOSFET) are not the most economical on the market but they have been deliberately selected with efficiency in mind. Simple Low Loss Step Down Converter Pr...

The tremolo arm on our vintage Hofner Colorama II is supposed to be held on with a type of thumb wheel screw, but that’s obviously been lost at some stage and the remaining stud/screw had been hammered down to act like a rivet and hold the tremolo arm on, irreversibly damaging it (the stud) in the process: The tremolo unit has already been removed from the guitar, but can be disassembled further by removing the big screw holding the arm lever on: Here's what we're left with: I've previously drilled into the stud to remove the arm, and the remaining stud has to be unscrewed as it is completely destroyed. That can be forced out with a pair of mole grips (vise-grips), by turning it in an anti-clockwise (counter clockwise) direction: There's quite a bit of rust on both this part and the tremolo unit itself, so a wire brush is used to remove it: I'm also rounding the front end of the lever, since it was originally square in shape and was catching on and damaging the trem...

LCD Module in 4-bit Mode Circuit diagram. In many projects use is made of alphanumeric LCDs that are driven internally by Hitachi’s industry-standard HD44780 controller. These displays can be driven either in 4-bit or 8-bit mode. In the first case only the high nibble (D4 to D7) of the display’s data bus is used. The four unused connections still deserve some closer attention. The data lines can be used as either inputs or outputs for the display. It is well known that an unloaded output is fine, but that a floating high-impedance input can cause problems. So what should you do with the four unused data lines when the display is used in 4-bit mode? This question arose when a circuit was submitted to us where D0-D3 where tied directly to GND (the same applies if it was to +5 V) to stop the problem of floating inputs. The LCD module was driven directly by a microcontroller, which was on a development board for testing various programs and I/O functions. There was a switch present for turnin...

How to build solar charger circuit project with transistors. A very simple solar charger circuit project can be designed using few external electronic parts . This simple solar charger circuit is capable of handling charge currents of up to 1A. Alternate component values are given in the figure for lower current applications. Solar Charger Circuit Diagram: The only adjustment is the voltage trip point when the current is shunted through the transistor and load resistor. This should be set with a fully charged battery. As the transistor and R3 have the entire panel’s output across them when the battery is fully charged, all of the current from the panel will be going through R3 and the Darlington transistor TIP112, so these must be well heat sunk. Adjust R1 for the trip point, usually 14.4 V – 15 V for a 12 V SLA or a 12 V Ni-Cd battery.
