In this post I have explained a simple plug-in type night lamp circuit with delayed switch OFF and dimming facilities. The entire circuit is built using a transformerless power supply which ensures that the unit is very compact and can be plugged into any existing 220V mains AC socket. Circuit Description The electronic schematic of […]

LM12 IC Datasheet, Application Circuits
LM12 is a power operational amplifier integrated circuit (IC) developed by National Semiconductor (now owned by Texas Instruments). It is designed for use in high-power audio amplifiers, servo amplifiers, and other high-current applications. Here are the electrical specifications and technical datasheet of the LM12: Electrical Specifications: Technical Specifications: Overall, the LM12 is a high-performance power […]
Home Electromagnetic Radiation Detector Circuit
The assembly proposed in these lines is an electromagnetic radiation detector (power and others) that allows the user to organize their living space with full knowledge. Circuit Description The sensor used for this design is a simple wire coil (L1) associated with the MOSFET transistor (T1) biased at the beginning of its conduction zone by […]
Vehicle Body Metal Detector Circuit
The main objective we are trying to achieve with this vehicle body metal detector is that only an automobile can trigger the opening of the gate. The solution involving the interruption of a light beam is not suitable, so we turned to a metal detector, as metal is a primary material in any automobile. In […]
Random LED Number Generator for Gambling Application
In this post I have explained a random LED number generator circuit consisting of a 4 x 5 LED matrix, numbered from 1 to 20. On pressing a push button these LEDs begin illuminating randomly, until finally a single LED corresponding to a specific number remains illuminated. Thus, this random LED number generator can be […]
How to Modify 78XX, LM323, LM350, LM317 Voltage Regulator Circuits
In this article I have explained many different methods of modifying voltage regulators ICs to improve their voltage and current handling characteristics. We learn how to externally modify these regulators using transistors and ICs for upgrading their current and power handling capacities. We discuss how to modify 78XX ICs, LM317 ICs, LM350 ICs, and LM323 […]
