The Universal DC-DC Buck & Boost Converter Circuit with UC3843 is a versatile circuit that can be used to either boost or buck a DC voltage, depending on the specific configuration. The UC3843 is a popular PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) controller IC used for these types of converters because of its high performance and ease […]
A boost converter circuit is a DC-DC power converter that steps up voltage from its input to its output while stepping down current. It’s widely used in applications where a higher output voltage is required from a lower input voltage, such as in battery-operated devices. One of the simplest ways to design a boost converter […]
Here is a simple proximity sensor circuit which shows proximity of an object by LED bar graph. Also, you will see two other simple proximity sensor designs. Proximity sensors are devices that detect the presence of an object within a certain range without any physical contact. They are widely used in various applications such as […]
Let’s designing a PIR motion sensor circuit that uses a Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor to control a buzzer through a 555 timer for motion detection applications. Here’s a step-by-step guide to creating this circuit: Working Principle of PIR Motion Sensor: A Passive Infrared (PIR) motion sensor detects motion by sensing changes in infrared radiation. Here’s […]
