A electronic combination lock is a device which is designed to activate an electrical solenoid locking system whenever the correct combination of numbers are entered into an attached keypad. To build this type of electronic combination lock, normally an electronic circuit with a keypad is used. In the design I have explained in this article, […]

Password Lock Circuit Using IC 4017
In this post I will show how to construct a general purpose password based electronic lock circuit without any involvement of microcontroller. You can use this circuit for numerous applications where a basic level of security is required for turning a circuit ON. The proposed project is built using an IC 4017 and the circuit […]
Simple Hum Filter Circuit for Amplifiers
The following post discusses a simple hum filter circuit which can be installed between an audio input source and a power amplifier, so that any possible mains hum frequency within the audio signal is blocked and only the clean audio frequency is allowed to go through. Introduction As the name suggests, hum noise is in […]
Light Controlled Sound Effect Generator Circuit
This unique circuit allows you to create many different sound effect outputs simply by moving your hands over a couple of light dependent resistors, by varying the intensity of incident light over the LDRs. By Ramesh Powar The generator has two different cells LDRs that control a sound – burst oscillator circuit. One LDR controls the tone […]
Simple Voltage Multiplier Circuits Explored
In this article I have explained how an input AC source could be increased to any desired levels using simple voltage multiplier circuits, built with capacitors and diodes. Thus the basic function of a voltage multiplier circuit is to multiply a given AC voltage source to any higher desired level, simply by adding the relevant […]
Types of Power Amplifier Classes Explained in Simple Words
In this post I am going to explain power amplifiers and their classification according to their output electrical characters and application. We will be exploring amplifier classes: A, B, AB, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, S and T briefly and yes, that’s a lot of amplifier types that are available in today’s electrical […]
