In this touch operated potentiometer circuit we have two touch pads, which produce a slowly increasing voltage at the output when one touch pad is touched, and a decreasing voltage when the other touch pad is touched. When the touch contact is removed the voltage holds at that particular increased or decreased level “permanently”. Touch […]

Digital Theremin Circuit – Make Music with your Hands
Named after its creator, the theremin originated in the Soviet Union in the beginning of 1920’s. This comprised of a container installed with a couple of antennas. It did not have any keyboard to play, no strings like in guitars. Rather, the theremin made use of human body capacitance to manipulate the volume and the […]
Listen to UHF and SHF (GHz) Bands with this Simple Circuit
This simple two IC circuit can be used for capturing and listening to frequencies in the GHz range. Receivers designed to cover frequencies as high as several gigahertz (which is many thousand MHz!) are generally difficult to find, specifically for anyone who is looking for cheap versions of these gadgets. However, it may be possible […]
Bluetooth Stethoscope Circuit
In situations as critical as a COVID-19 pandemic, a doctor is the one personnel who is the most susceptible to getting infected by the virus from a patient. Therefore, doctors are being continually offered and equipped with many advanced and high tech devices in an effort to guarantee maximum safety to their life and health. […]
Signal Injector Circuits for Quick Troubleshooting of all Audio Equipment
This simple signal injector circuits I have explained below can be accurately used for troubleshooting and alignment applications of all kinds of audio and high frequency equipment. 1) Using a Single IC 7400 One of the extremely handy devices for repairing audio and high frequency instruments is without question a equipment that will give you […]
How Contactless Infrared Thermometers Work – How to Make One
In this post I have explained the basic working concept of thermal scanners or contactless IR thermometers, and also learn how to make a practical DIY prototype of the unit without Arduino. In the post COVID-19 era, witnessing doctors holding a contactless temperature gun and pointing toward the forehead of a COVID-19 suspect is a […]
