In this post I have explained 9 LDR circuit projects that uses LDR light sensor to trigger a load ON/OFF through a relay. These circuits are mostly triggered by the absence or the presence of light on the LDR. The circuits are built using transistors, op amps and LDR along with a switching relay. Let’s […]

Triacs – Working and Application Circuits
A triac can be compared to a latching relay. It will instantly switch ON and close as soon as it’s triggered, and will remain closed as long as the supply voltage remains above zero volts or the supply polarity is not changed. If the supply is an AC (alternating current), the triac will open during […]
Tunnel Diode – Working and Application Circuit
A tunnel diode is a type of semiconductor diode which features a negative resistance on account of a quantum mechanical effect known as tunneling. In this post I have explained the basic characteristics and working of tunnel diodes, and also a simple application circuit using this device. We will see how a tunnel diode could […]
Understanding Crystal Oscillator Circuits
Crystal oscillators are electronics devices that produce stable, accurate, and repeated signals that are widely employed in a wide range of electronic applications. Because of their great stability, precision, and low noise, they have become a crucial component in many electronic circuits. In this post, we will look at how crystal oscillators function, as well […]
Comparator Datasheet Parameters
This post will help you to understand a few of the crucial comparator parameters or specifications which are generally found in comparator IC datasheets. Some of the major parameters that you may come across in the datasheet of a compartaor are: Propagation delay Current consumption Output stage type (open collector/drain or push-pull) Input offset voltage, […]
Rotating LED Chakra Circuit for God Idols
LED Chakra is an ornamental lighting system which depicts or imitates a rotating wheel like appearance, by means of sequentially shifting Illuminated LED arrays. Indian subcontinent is a land of festivals and celebrations which mostly start from the month of August and continues until the New Year. All these festivals have one fundamental thing in […]
