Control Variable DC Power Supply With LM317

This DC power supply circuit is adjustable using IC Voltage Regulator LM317. LM317 is a versatile and highly efficient 1.2-37V voltage regulatorthat can provide up to 1.5A of current with a large heat sink. It'sideal for just about any application. This was my first workbench powersupply and I still use it.

Since LM317 is protectedagainst short-circuit, no fuse is necessary. Thanks to automaticthermal shutdown, it will turn off if heating excessively. All in all,a very powerful (and affordable!) package, indeed.

Although voltage regulator LM317 is capable of delivering up to 37V, the DC power supplyoutput circuit here is limited to 25V for the sake of safety andsimplicity. Any higher output voltage would require additionalcomponents and a larger heat sink.

Make sure that theinput voltage is at least a couple of Volts higher than the desiredoutput. It's OK to use a trim-pot if you're building a fixed-voltagesupply.

Problems:
Follow all the safety precautions when working with mains voltage. Insulate all connections on the transformer.

Control 6A, 5 Volt Power Supply

The standard variable voltage regulator type LM150 is fairly easily available, but at times its out, which is limited to about 3 amperes, may prove to e a limiting factor to its utility, nut the simple modification describe here allows the to be enhanced to about 6 amperes. The circuit has inbuilt safe area protection and thermal overload protection.The circuit has been tested for lone regulation of the order of about 0.01% volt and load regulation of about 0.1% volt.
The circuit works on principle similar to the compact 10A power supplies. The two LM150 regulators are wired in parallel mode with  IC3 which controls them. The output voltage is given by the relation
Vout=1,25x(1+R5/R4) volts. The input voltage may lie anywhere in the range of 12 to 30 volts.

The IC must be adequately heat sinked in order to obtain full output current all over the operative temperature range

Control 32W HiFi Amplifier circuit based on TDA2050

This is a High Fidelify (Hi-Fi) amplifier circuit based on single IC TDA205. This is a mono channel audio amplifier. You need to build the same circuit for stereo channel.

TDA2050 Description:
The TDA 2050 is a monolithic integrated circuitin Pentawatt package, intended for use as an audio class AB audioamplifier. Thanks to its high power capability the TDA2050 is able toprovide up to 35W true rms power into 4 ohm load @ THD =10%, VS = ±18V,f = 1KHz and up to 32W into 8ohm load @ THD = 10%, VS = ±22V, f = 1KHz.Moreover, the TDA 2050 delivers typically 50W music power into 4 ohmload over 1 sec at VS=22.5V, f = 1KHz.
The high power and verylow harmonic and crossover distortion (THD = 0.05% typ, @ VS = ±22V, PO= 0.1 to 15W, RL=8ohm, f = 100Hz to 15KHz) make the device mostsuitable for both HiFi and high class TV sets.

Control High Current Regulated Supply

The high current regulator below uses an additional winding or a separate transformer to supply power for the LM317 regulator so that the pass transistors can operate closer to saturation and improve efficiency. For good efficiency the voltage at the collectors of the two parallel 2N3055 pass transistors should be close to the output voltage. The LM317 requires a couple extra volts on the input side, plus the emitter/base drop of the 3055s, plus whatever is lost across the (0.1 ohm) equalizing resistors (1volt at 10 amps), so a separate transformer and rectifier/filter circuit is used that is a few volts higher than the output voltage. The LM317 will provide over 1 amp of current to drive the bases of the pass transistors and assumings a gain of 10 the combination should deliver 15 amps or more. The LM317 always operates with a voltage difference of 1.2 between the output terminal and adjustment terminal and requires a minimum load of 10mA, so a 75 ohm resistor was chosen which will draw (1.2/75 = 16mA). This same current flows through the emitter resistor of the 2N3904 which produces about a 1 volt drop across the 62 ohm resistor and 1.7 volts at the base. The output voltage is set with the voltage divider (1K/560) so that 1.7 volts is applied to the 3904 base when the output is 5 volts. For 13 volt operation, the 1K resistor could be adjusted to around 3.6K. The regulator has no output short circuit protection so the output probably should be fused.

Control Digital Remote Thermometer Circuit With Receiver and Transmitter

Remote sensor sends data via mains supply, Temperature range: 00.0 to 99.9 °C

This circuit is intended for precision centigrade temperature measurement, with a transmitter section converting to frequency the sensor's output voltage, which is proportional to the measured temperature. The output frequency bursts are conveyed into the mains supply cables. The receiver section counts the bursts coming from mains supply and shows the counting on three 7-segment LED displays. The least significant digit displays tenths of degree and then a 00.0 to 99.9 °C range is obtained. Transmitter-receiver distance can reach hundred meters, provided both units are connected to the mains supply within the control of the same light-meter.

Transmitter circuit operation:

IC1 is a precision centigrade temperature sensor with a linear output of 10mV/°C driving IC2, a voltage-frequency converter. At its output pin (3), an input of 10mV is converted to 100Hz frequency pulses. Thus, for example, a temperature of 20°C is converted by IC1 to 200mV and then by IC2 to 2KHz. Q1 is the driver of the power output transistor Q2, coupled to the mains supply by L1 and C7, C8.

• More simple setup: place a thermometer close to IC1 sensor, then set R4 to obtain the same reading of the thermometer in the receiver's display.
• Keep the sensor (IC1) well away from heating sources (e.g. Mains Transformer T1).
• Linearity is very good.
• Warning! Both circuits are connected to 230Vac mains, then some parts in the circuit boards are subjected to lethal potential! Avoid touching the circuits when plugged and enclose them in plastic boxes.

Control Power LED Flasher

The low cost and extremely compact circuit given here is that of a highly power saving flashing LED indicator.Whereas most LEDs fail to work below 2 volt, their forward voltage alone being 1,6 volts minimum, this flasher can work off one single cell.

The LM3909 contains virtually all the essential trigger and pulsing circuitry which controls the flashing rate. The only other component used is the capacitor C1 which decides the final flashing rate, which in this case is set to about 1Hz.

The circuit has very low current has a very low current consumption, in the order of about 0.3mA, which is made possible due to intermittent current flow in the form of very short pulse through the LED. The capacitor connected across the cell ensures that the circuit continues to operate even when voltage falls below 1.2 volt (minimum limit).

The  circuit, if assembled closely on a veroboard, would occupy little extra space as compared to a conventional neon or LED indicator.

Control NiCad Batteries Charger

This battery charger circuit is designed for recharging Ni Cad batteries based on an AC-powered current source method. It can crank out as much as 1 amp and can be modified to go even higher by choosing different devices for Q1. Since this circuit uses AC line voltages and currents, please exercise extreme caution during assembly, turn-on, and test.

NiCAD batteries have a capacity specification called milliamp-hours. This value called "C" is a measure of how much total current they can provide in one hour. Milliamp-hours is another way to express the energy contained in the battery. To recharge a Ni CAD battery conservatively, it is common practice to pump a current of 0.1 C into the anode or positive terminal for about 12 hours. Therefore, if you had a D-size NiCAD with a capacity of 4000mAh, you would want to charge it at 400mA for about 12 hours. Another advantage of this charging technique is that it is gentle on batteries and doesn't cause them to lose capacity as quickly as the fast charge techniques.

The output current of this battery charger circuit is controlled by the summation of the bandgap reference diode and the base-emitter junction of the PNP transistor. The PNP transistor provides negative feedback to the gate of the MOSFET. As noted in the schematic, the batteries being charged can have a total of 12V which is equivalent to about 8 NiCAD's in series. The output current is determined by the value of R1 which is determined by:

R1=3.2Volts/Iout

The power dissipation of R1 will equal:

Pr1=3.2Volts*Iout

Be sure to provide plenty of heat sink for Q1 and choose an appropriately sized resistor for R1. The following table summarizes some of the resistor current combination that are possible:
Iout Resistor Value Resistor Power

100mA 33 ohms 1 watt

500mA 6.2 ohms 2 watt

1Amp 3.3 ohms 5 watt

Control Basic Phototransistor Detector

This is a Phototransistor Detector circuit. In this circuit, when the light falling on the phototransistor (Q1) is blocked, its conductance will decrease and the voltage across Q1 will rise. When the voltage rises above 1/2 of the supply voltage the output of the comparator will turn ON and the LED will be lit.

The only critical part of this circuit is the value of resistor R1 which in most cases can be 470K ohms but may have to be increase if the room is dark or decreased if the room is well lit.
Increasing the value of R1 will cause the sensitivity of the sensor to decrease. This may be necessary when the light falling on the cell is not very strong or shadows can affect the phototransistor.
There are a number of phototransistors sizes and case styles. The smaller cases will be easier to hide but connecting wires may be more difficult.

Control Mobile Phone Charger Circuit For Traveling

Here is an ideal Mobile charger using 1.5 volt pen cells to charge mobile phone while traveling. It can replenish cell phone battery three or four times in places where AC power is not available. Most of the Mobile phone batteries are rated at 3.6 V/500 mA. A single pen torch cell can provide 1.5 volts and 1.5 Amps current. So if four pen cells are connected serially, it will form a battery pack with 6 volt and 1.5 Amps current. When power is applied to the circuit through S1, transistor Q1 conducts and Green LED lights.

When Q1 conducts Q2 also conducts since its base becomes negative. Charging current flows from the collector of Q1. To reduce the charging voltage to 4.7 volts, Zener diode D2 is used. The output gives 20 mA current for slow charging. If more current is required for fast charging, reduce the value of R4 to 47 ohms so that 80 mA current will be available. Output points are used to connect the charger with the mobile phone. Use suitable pins for this and connect with correct polarity. The circuit comes from here.

• More simple setup: place a thermometer close to IC1 sensor, then set R4 to obtain the same reading of the thermometer in the receiver's display.
• Keep the sensor (IC1) well away from heating sources (e.g. Mains Transformer T1).
• Linearity is very good.
• Warning! Both circuits are connected to 230Vac mains, then some parts in the circuit boards are subjected to lethal potential! Avoid touching the circuits when plugged and enclose them in plastic boxes.

Control Mobile Phone Charger Circuit For Traveling

Here is an ideal Mobile charger using 1.5 volt pen cells to charge mobile phone while traveling. It can replenish cell phone battery three or four times in places where AC power is not available. Most of the Mobile phone batteries are rated at 3.6 V/500 mA. A single pen torch cell can provide 1.5 volts and 1.5 Amps current. So if four pen cells are connected serially, it will form a battery pack with 6 volt and 1.5 Amps current. When power is applied to the circuit through S1, transistor Q1 conducts and Green LED lights.

When Q1 conducts Q2 also conducts since its base becomes negative. Charging current flows from the collector of Q1. To reduce the charging voltage to 4.7 volts, Zener diode D2 is used. The output gives 20 mA current for slow charging. If more current is required for fast charging, reduce the value of R4 to 47 ohms so that 80 mA current will be available. Output points are used to connect the charger with the mobile phone. Use suitable pins for this and connect with correct polarity. The circuit comes from here.

Control Simple Car Theft Deterrent

The purpose of this simple circuit is to deter potential car burglars by flashing a few LEDs on a seemingly very sophisticated control panel,implying that the vehicle is equipped with a sophisticated hi-tech alarm system. This simple deterrent is unique in the sense that it is based on just one single uni junction (UJT) and is connected to the car power supply system by just two wires.

The circuit partly relies on it self and partly on the psychological fact that on seeing a brightly lit and active control panel ( even when the car is off ) similar to an alarm system, many thieves, especially the more experienced ones, would don't like to.... to dare to attempt stealing the car at the risk of setting off the alarm.

The circuit as shown in schematic, is based on a UJT type 2N2646, which is wired as a low frequency oscillator. The frequency is determined by the timing  components R1 and C1. Two LEDs are used in flashing mode and two in normal forward conduction pilot mode.R2 and R3 limit the currents passing through the LEDs .

Control Headlights On Indicator

Most drivers would have experienced the frustrations at some time or another of parking their car for the day and coming back in the evening only to find that they have accidentally left the head lights on. The result,with the modem small car batteries, quite often is that they have discharged the battery too much to start the engine. And at the end of a long day, the last thing one wants to cope with is a flat and discharged battery.

The basic objective of this low cost monitor is to prevent such (mis) happening from taking place. The circuit sounds an audible alarm as well as flashes a bicolour LED display array at the moment the driver,leaving the headlight on,open his door to leave the car. The alarm does not irritatingly sound every time a co-passenger opens a door. The circuit uses a single CMOS quad NAND gate chip,the ubiquitous 4093.

G1 is wired as a low frequency oscillator which flashes at around 1 Hz. For generating the AC current two 820 ohm resistors have been used rather than the conventional gate.G2 is wired as an AFO which generates the master alarm tone. G3 and G4 are used as buffers which drive the piezo element through the coupling capacitor C3.This piezo speaker has been used in place of normally used buzzers due to its advantages of lower height,lower cost as well as lower current demand.

Diodes D1 and D2 ensure proper operation of the circuit by allowing the alarm to be actived only when the drivers door is opened.The circuit draws negligible current in quienscent state.

Control The Pocket Receiver

Not that there is any paucity of pocket receivers or that they are too expensive,or that there are hardly any well known circuit that we decided to design' another one'. It's not just another one.

The True Pocket Receiver
 No doubt, dozens of models are commercially available but they aren't truly pocket sized (rather pocket oversized ). Not  many,leave alone the corner of a shirt pocket, fit into a normal shirt pocket leaving enough space to even tack a wallet, Well that's the reason we thought of designing a pocket receiver small enough to fit into a shirt pocket or clip on to a belt that is - a pocket receiver in the true sense. And that exactly is what we have here !


How it Works?
 The circuit is given in picture.It uses an 8-pin DIP ZN415 radio receiver chip from Ferranti. The circuit has an edge over the ZN414 in having an in-built amplifier stage. The IC contains a complete AM detector subsystem. The circuit uses a tuned circuit based on L1 and VC1 serves as tuning control.L1 detects the signals and passe them on to IC1, which in turn, drives high impedance headphones. That's all.

The IC thus allows construction of a light weight,low voltage and quality receiver.

Control 3A Universal Power Supply

This universal power supply is universal in the true sense. With a output continually variable from 1.25 volts to 25 volts, this power supply is left with hardly any needs that it can't fulfill.The power supply is short circuit protected and  has in-built thermal overload protection.

As shown in figure, the power supply uses an LM350 type variable regulator. The IC in a TO-3 package and resembles the common 2N3055 and AD149 transistors. VR1 provides voltage control.R1,D2 and C2 are the accompanying components. The input voltage is obtained from an 30 volt source such as a transformer etc. The diode D1 provides a path for C3 to discharge  when the power is turned off. The output wires carry heavy currents, so adequate care must be taken to ensures the use of thick wires and terminal to prevent failures.A standard transistors type heat-sink must be used.

Control DC motor control a AVR ATmega8

DC motor control using the PWM counters of AVR ATmega8 microcontroller. I had used a DC motor from an old personal stereo cassette player. The circuit provides speed and direction control of the motor. The PWM waveforms are used for driving the MOSFET H-bridge as shown in the schematic:

At a time only one of the two PWM channel is active, driving only two MOSFETS (either Q1-Q4 or Q3-Q2). Other two MOSFETs remain OFF. Whenever the Direction Control switch is toggled, the PWM channel is also changed, driving the alternative pair of MOSFET, which changes the direction of current flow through motor, resulting in the direction change in rotation of motor shaft.

Control RAM and ROM memories in Micoprosesor

Computer memory devices come in two basic types,RAM and ROM. these words are not as helpful as they could be.RAM standers for 'random access memory, a term which can in fact be applied to both types.ROM is 'read only memory'  which means that the computer system can obtain information stored in the memory('read' it) but can't store anything new in it('write' to it').RAM stores can boat be read from and written to,but both ROM and RAM have the random access facility.Put simply,this means that any data byte stored in the memory chip can be obtained as easily as the next, it doesn't matter whereabouts in the chip it is.

floppy disc systems offer the same facility A program stored anywhere on the disc can (to all intents and purpose) be just quickly accessed as any other.Compare this to information stored on magnetic tape.The first program on the tape is much easier to access than the last -  if you want to do it automatically- so that a tape memory is not regard as being random access.

Rom memory chips are programmed by the manufacture; they contain the computer operating system and standard routines (mini program) that may be used quite frequently;there may be a routine to clear the screen,for example.This information is stored permanently in the ROM chip and is not lost when power to the machine is switched  off. It is termed a 'non-volatile' memory.There is no possibility at all of making future changes to the contents of a ROM chip.The ROM, as with all semiconductor memory devices,is in matrix form and the connections within are permanent.

RAM chips are used for storing the user's program,you can write information the them and read it back again entirely at random according to your programming needs,but all the information's is lost when the computer system is switched off; this is therefore termed a 'volatile' memory system.

 A user would normally 'save' the contents of RAM (usually the program) on floppy or hard disc before turning the power off; such systems are called memory backing store. It is possible to write a program and have is stored  permanently in a ROM chip, but the process is quite complex and requires programmable ROM is used which is programmed during manufacture and would be too expensive to produce in small quantities.

Control The silicon chips

Most people will have heard of the " silicon chips".There are many such  devices,but the words are usually taken to mean a microprocessor.The heart of any computer is something called a central processing unit (CPU),the microprocessor (MPU) is simply a CPU which has been considerably reduced in size using modern integrated circuit technology. This 'computer on a piece of silicon' is so small,it's probably no bigger than the nail on yours little finger.How the microprocessor function and now how it is 'programmed' is what we are about to investigate.Machine code programming will be discussed-this is the code that the microprocessor actually 'understands'.
Some home computer users program in 'BASIC' but this is only for the users convenience. An interpreter inside the computer converts the basic program into machine code.This slows down program execution hundreds of times and increases the cost of the system.Hence,using machine code programming speeds up operation dramatically and uses less 'firmware'.

Control Liquid PCB different from other PCB programs

Liquid PCB was designed from the point of view of the user. I think that the computer should take as much work from the user as possible, while still giving them the freedom to produce an excellent design. It should be possible to navigate the interface using as few mouse clicks as possible.
Liquid PCB actually uses the immense power of your computer’s CPU and GPU to help you. Rather than sitting idle, waiting for a mouse click, Liquid PCB constantly enforces your design rules, and optimises your track, component and via placement. You are not confined to straight tracks at 45° angles, nor to components at 90° angles. Drag tracks wherever you want, even squeeze them into small gaps, and let Liquid PCB sort it out.

Liquid PCB also has a user interface which has been designed specifically to reduce the amount of clicking and fiddling you have to do. Many functions can be accessed with only one, or sometimes zero clicks.

LiquidPCB is aware of the flow of information into and out of your PCB project. For example, a typical PCB will use a netlist, generated from a schematic capture package. It may also use a 3D model file from a CAD package. These are the inputs Rather than simply importing these files into LiquidPCB, you create a dependency on them. So, if any of those files are modified, LiquidPCB will automatically inform you, and give you the option to update.
Likewise, Output files generated from the PCB (Gerber, engineering drawings, BOMs, etc.) will be automatically updated when the PCB changes.

Control Schematic Long Range FM transmitter Circuit

The power output of most of these circuits are very low because no power amplifier stages were incorporated.The transmitter circuit described here has an extra RF power amplifier stage, after the oscillator stage, to raise the power output to 200-250 milliwatts. With a good matching 50-ohm ground plane antenna or multi-element Yagi antenna, this transmitter can provide reasonably good signal strength up to a distance of about 2 kilometers.

The circuit built around transistor T1 (BF494) is a basic low-power variable-frequency VHF oscillator. A varicap diode circuit is included to change the frequency of the transmitter and to provide frequency modulation by audio signals. The output of the oscillator is about 50 milliwatts. Transistor T2 (2N3866) forms a VHF-class A power amplifier. It boosts the oscillator signals’ power four to five times. Thus, 200-250 milliwatts of power is generated at the collector of transistor T2.
For better results, assemble the circuit on a good-quality glass epoxy board and house the transmitter inside an aluminum case. Shield the oscillator stage using an aluminum sheet.

 Schematic

Coil winding details are given below:L1 - 4 turns of 20 SWG wire close wound over 8mm diameter plastic former.L2 - 2 turns of 24 SWG wire near top end of L1.(Note: No core (i.e. air core) is used for the above coils)L3 - 7 turns of 24 SWG wire close wound with 4mm diameter air core.L4 - 7 turns of 24 SWG wire-wound on a ferrite bead (as choke)Potentiometer VR1 is used to vary the fundamental frequency whereas potentiometer VR2 is used as power control. For hum-free operation, operate the transmitter on a 12V rechargeable battery pack of 10 x 1.2-volt Ni-Cd cells. Transistor T2 must be mounted on a heat sink. Do not switch on the transmitter without a matching antenna. Adjust both trimmers (VC1 and VC2) for maximum transmission power. Adjust potentiometer VR1 to set the fundamental frequency near 100 MHz.This transmitter should only be used for educational purposes.

Control Birth of an Industry Microcontroller

Significant technological breakthroughs usually result from seeking a solution to a problem and they add to a body of existing knowledge. The development of solid-state electronic followed this pattern building on the limitations of early computers and leading to this development of the transistors in 1947.

One problem occurred prior to the 1890 U.S. census. It was predicted that the 1890 census would take 10 years to condense and correlate by manual tabulation. This length of time was unaccepted and led the U.S. Census Bureau to sponsor a contest for a new method of process mechanical tabulating machine that completed the census data crunching in an amazing six weeks. His Machine was a mechanical system driven by an electrical motor that introduced the punch card.Hollerith went on to form the Tabulating Machine Company,Which eventually evolved into the International Business Machine Corporation(IBM).

This tabulating machine was one of the earliest computers, A machine that was designed to perform automatic calculations on data. The technology of computer continued to progress in the 1930s with the development of computers using electromechanical switch. During World War II, intelligent and fast machine to crack secret codes were developed. One result of these efforts was the world's first electronic computer, the Electronic Numeric Integrator and Calculation or ENIAC for short. The ENIAC was first demonstrated ata the Moore School of Engineering in Pennsylvania in 194.

ENIAC hardly fits the modern picture of a computer. It occupied some 3000 ft2, weighed 50 tons,generated large quantities of heat, required the service of a small power station and cost $400,000 in 1940 dollars.

Control DIGITAL COMPASS DESCRIPTION

Basic Description
The digital compass gives measurements based on Earth's magnetic field for robot navigation. Inside this commonly available MEMS are tiny nano-structures that bend due to electromagnetic fields. When this MEMS experiences any form of EM field, the tiny structures bend by an amount which can be electrically detected. Cheaper digital compasses usually have a resolution of around +/- 5 degrees, but newer and better ones can detect with a better accuracy.

Tips and Uses
• Keep digital compasses far away from anything that emits EM, such as motors, transformers, inductors, etc.
• Large conductive items significantly altar magnetic fields (cars, fridges, steel plates, etc.)
• Use this device to help for navigation, such as robot race tracks or navigating a maze
• because the Earth's magnetic lines of flux "dip" in declination, the compass must remain level for the readings to be accurate. Some electronic compasses employ a 2-axis gimbal in an attempt to keep the compass level, but these are problematic in the rough off-road environments
