We are happy to share an automatic curtain control circuit kindly provided by Mr. August Peterson. This design helps to open and close curtains by sensing light from the surroundings. It uses an LM393 comparator, a solar panel as a light sensor and a 24V motor. The circuit makes the curtain open in the morning […]

USB 5V To 24V DC to DC Boost Power Regulator Module
This is a USB 5V to 24V Adjustable Boost Converter Module and it helps us step up a lower voltage into a higher voltage which we can adjust as needed. Now let us go through everything in detail step by step. Inputs – Where We Give Power Now we got three ways to power this […]
How to Connect 5V Single Channel Relay Module
In this post we are talking about this handy little gadget called a 5V single-channel relay module. It is super useful for our microcontroller projects whether we are using Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or even the ESP8266/ESP32. Let us break it down together, what it is, how it works, and how we can connect it. Understanding […]
500V, 20A MOSFET IRFP460 Datasheet, Pinouts
The IRFP460 MOSFET is an N-channel MOSFET. It is rated for a drain-source breakdown voltage of 500V and a continuous drain current of 20A. This MOSFET is a third-generation device designed with fast switching and low on-resistance in mind. Specifically, it has a maximum drain-source on-state resistance of 0.27 Ohms. Basically this IRFP460 MOSFET is […]
Furnace Vent Controller Circuit Diagram
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 […]
Simple Remote Controlled Curtain Open/Close Circuit Diagram
In this article I will explain a simple curtain controller circuit designed by me which can be used to control the opening and closing of a curtain through a remote control. Overview Referring to the circuit diagram in your screen, we can see there are just two relays employed for implementing a remote controlled opening […]
