This interesting furnace vent controller circuit was designed and submitted to me for publication by a dedicated reader of this blog and a keen electronic enthusiast Mr. August Peterson. I am extremely thankful to Mr. August for his very useful and generous contribution to this site. Here’s the email sent by him, with the technical […]

LM35 IC Temperature Controller Circuit with Push Button
In this post I have explained a simple yet very accurate temperature controller circuit using IC LM35, featuring an automatic cut off with a push button latch. LM35 is a precision temperature sensor IC, which can be effectively used for detecting temperature differences accurately. For more details regarding this IC you can refer to this […]
3 Useful Temperature Alarm Circuits Explained
In this post I have explained the working of 3 interesting and useful temperature alarm circuits through detailed circuit diagrams. A temperature alarm circuit is basically a device which is designed to detect a temperature threshold and sound an alarm as soon the temperature exceeds over, or drops below the desired temperature detection threshold. 1) […]
Temperature Regulator Circuits using IC LM335
There are many cases where it is desirable to actively regulate the operating temperature of an electronic assembly. Sometimes, it is imperative to dissipate the heat generated by the components (this is the case for the majority of microprocessors in our modern PCs). On the contrary, it is necessary to artificially increase the operating temperature […]
Temperature Controlled Relay Switch Circuit
In this article I have explained a simple temperature controlled relay circuit which can be switched ON/OFF depending on the temperature on its temperature sensor. Meaning, when the temperature on its temperature sensor rises above a set threshold point, the relay switches ON, and when the temperature drops below the threshold, the relay switches OFF. […]
Simple Temperature Indicator Circuits using Thermistors
A thermometer may be required for the precise measurement of temperatures. However, in many cases, an absolute value isn’t required and a relative estimate is sufficient. For example, the consumer may be alerted to the fact that an electric drill or vacuum cleaner is becoming hot, through a basic LED illumination, or through changing color […]
