The Field-Effect Transistor or the FET is a 3 terminal semiconductor device which is used for switching high power DC loads through negligible power inputs. The FET comes with some unique features such as a high input impedance (in the megohms) and with almost zero loading on a signal source or the attached preceding stage. […]

Motion Detector Circuit using Doppler Effect
The motion sensor circuit explained in the article works by using doppler shift principle, in which the moving target is detected through the continuously varying frequency, reflected from the moving object. What is Doppler Effect One very fascinating feature of sound is the Doppler effect. The Doppler effect happens when the source that is producing […]
4 Efficient PWM Amplifier Circuits Explained
Audio amplifiers which are designed to amplify an analogue audio signal through pulse width modulation or PWM processing and with adjustable duty cycle is known by many names including digital amplifier, Class-D amplifier, switched amplifier and PWM amplifier. (Article Contributed by: Ritu khanna) Because it can perform at high efficiencies, a Class-D amplifier has become […]
Ultrasonic Fire Alarm Circuit using Air Turbulence Detection
The simple ultrasonic fire alarm circuit I have explained below detects a fire hazard situation by picking up the variations in the surrounding air waves, or the air turbulence. The high sensitivity of the circuit ensures that even the slightest of air turbulence created by a temperature difference or fire is quickly detected and an […]
