SIMPLE-ELECTRONICS.COM: ALL ABOUT ELECTRONICS

This project is a flashing led circuit powered by 555 timer IC.This flasher circuit is composed of two versions, the simple led flasher  that uses only two LED, and big flasher that consists 20  LEDs. Simple LED Flasher circuit is powered from a 6V to 12V battery and delivers a current of about 20mA to LED. The frequency of the flashing on both LED is controlled by 100K potentiometer connected between the discharge and trigger pin of 555 timer IC. The rate of flash ranges from 1blink per 2 seconds up to 10 flashes per sec. continue..

 

This simple converter project uses 7805 IC to convert 12V dc from a battery to 5V DC. This converter also can be made even only one component, the 7805 regulator. Converter can produce a maximum current of 1.5A (with heatsink) at 5V from an input of 8V to 15V. The capacitors are optional and can be omitted.
This is suitable for powering devices that uses 5V DC such as chargers,USB devices and others  continue..

This project is all about dual fan temperature controller project for CPU and computer hardware. Similar to CPU fan temperature controller project  this version of  temperature controller is easy to build, materials are minimal and very low cost.The dual fan controller in this project is composed of a temperature-controlled resistor (thermistor), LM393 voltage comparator (control circuit) and an IRFZ2N4 NPN metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (mosfet).  continue..

This simple ipod charger is powered by a 6V battery or a 9V battery. This charger is easy to construct even by a non-electronic inclined person.The charger delivers 150mA to 200mA current to you cellphone or iPod.

Initially, the voltage output  from 220V to 12V converter is fed to the input of LM317 regulator. Then this voltage is regulated down to 7.37V using 240 ohms and 1.2K resistor combination (see LM317 Calculator).
At this instant, the battery is in charging mode and the transistor Q1 is off. Indicator LED serves two purpose, one primarily is to give us idea that the battery is charging and another is to ensure that the Q1 is off. During brownouts, the transistor Q1 is on and delivers current to 16 white LED of about 20mA each, thus a fully charged battery (6V/4.5Ah) can last up to 14 hours.continue..

Solar power is a good and clean source of electricity.But  before it is used in houses, it is first used to charge battery then the battery, with the help of inverter circuits, will power up household appliances like lights and TV sets.During hot...continue..

POWER SYSTEMS LOSS.COM: LOSSES IN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

What is powersystemsloss all about?    System's loss reduction is now one of the most growing trends in every electric distribution utility. Primarily triggered by economics and regulation concerns, Transmission and Distribution companies now sets more focus in reducing losses and become as an efficient utility as possible in delivering power. Information found in this site will be very useful not only to electrical practitioners but it is also our goal to help students better understand the actual world. Thank you and lets all enjoy learning! continue..   Back to basic    n case you don't know, the power we get from our household electrical outlet didn't just appear in the thin air. It may appear that it is coming out from our walls but we all know that looks can be deceiving. Before reaching our respective homes, electric current passes through miles and miles of c...

FRUITS AS BATTERY AND SOURCE OF ELECTRICITY

Electric Fruits Project   The purpose of this project was to find out which fruit would generate enough electricity to light a light bulb and to discover which fruit would light the bulb the longest. To conduct my experiments I used a Multimeter, copper and zinc wires & electrodes, alligator clips with leads, various light bulbs and five types of fruits. continue.. Why Do Citrus Fruits Produce Electricity?   In order to generate electricity, there must be a power source and a complete circuit. When using a citrus fruit to create electricity, these rules still apply. In a simple experiment using a citrus fruit, the components of the circuit include: a lemon or other fruit, wire, two different metal elements and a small light bulb. The lemon in this circuit serves as the battery and power source. continue.. Fruit Power Project   Purpose To demonstrate how an electrical current can be generated using citrus fruits (such as lemons or li...

ELECTROCUTION: ELECTRIC ACCIDENT THAT CAN BE AVOIDIED

Electrocution   Electrocution is a type of electric shock that, as determined by a stopped heart, can end life. Electrocution is frequently used to refer to any electric shock received but is technically incorrect; the choice of definition varies from dictionary to dictionary. However, in the vernacular, the term electrocution is used to mean: death, murder or a sudden accident caused by an electric shock. deliberate execution by means of an electric shock, such as an electric chair; the word "electrocution" is a portmanteau for "electrical execution".. continue.. Electric Shock   Electric Shock of a (human) body with any source of electricity that causes a sufficient current through the skin, muscles or hair. Typically, the expression is used to denote an unwanted exposure to electricity, hence the effects are considered undesirable. The minimum current a human can feel depends on the current type (AC or DC) and frequency. A person can feel at least 1 mA (rm...
