Automatic 9 volt Battery Charger

Image
Good care given to your NiCad batteries will ensure a long life. However, they do need to be handled and charged with special care. It is therefore important to first discharge the NiCad to 1 Volt per cell, ensure that the battery is discharged, and then start the charge cycle. recommend a charge current of 1/10th the capacity for a duration of about 15 hours uninterrupted. In reality, we learn some hard lessons when we forget to switch the charger off after the 15 hours and find that one or more cells inside the battery no longer accept a charge. That is the very reason that the circuit above is fully automated. The only thing to do is connect the battery and press the 'Start' button. When the discharge cycle is finished the circuit switches over to charge for 15 hours. After the 15 hours the circuits maintains a trickle charge to keep the battery 'topped-up Before I go into the schematic details I like to explain some of the component descriptions in the schematic.

PWM Dimmer Motor Speed Controller

Image
This is yet another project born of necessity. It's a simple circuit, but does exactly what it's designed to do - dim LED lights or control the speed of 12V DC motors. The circuit uses PWM to regulate the effective or average current through the LED array, 12V incandescent lamp (such as a car headlight bulb) or DC motor. The only difference between the two modes of operation is the addition of a power diode for motor speed control, although a small diode should be used for dimmers too, in case long leads are used which will create an inductive back EMF when the MOSFET switches off.    Photo of Completed PWM Dimmer/Speed Control The photo shows what a completed board looks like. Dimensions are 53 x 37mm, so it's possible to install it into quite small spaces. The parts used are readily available, and many subsitiutions are available for both the MOSFET and power diode (the latter is only needed for motor speed control). The opamps should not be substituted, because the ones ...

Stable USB Power Supply Circuit Diagram

Image
A common problem when an AC mains adapter is used to power a USB device is that the voltage does not match the nominal 5 V specified by the USB standard. The circuit shown here accepts an input voltage in the range of 4-9 V and converts it into a 6-V output voltage, which is then stabilized to a clean 5-V level by a series regulator. The combined boost/buck converter used here operates on the SEPIC principle. That principle is quite similar to the operating principle of the Cuk converter, but without the disadvantage of a negative output voltage. Circuit diagram : Stable USB Power Supply Circuit Diagram The circuit is built around a MAX668, which is intended to be used as a controller for boost converters. The difference between a SEPIC converter and a standard boost (step-up) converter is that the former type has an additional capacitor (in this case C2) and a second inductor (in this case, the secondary winding of transformer L1). If C2 is replaced by a wire bridge and the secondary...

TV Remote Control Jammer

Image
This circuit confuses the infra-red receiver in a TV. It produces a constant signal that interferes with the signal from a remote control and prevents the TV detecting a channel-change or any other command. This allows you to watch your own program without anyone changing the channel !!    The circuit is adjusted to produce a 38kHz signal. The IR diode is called an Infra-red transmitting Diode or IR emitter diode to distinguish it from a receiving diode, called an IR receiver or IR receiving diode. (A Photo diode is a receiving diode).  .  TV Remote Control Jammer Circuit Diagram There are so many IR emitters that we cannot put a generic number on the circuit to represent the type of diode. Some types include: CY85G, LD271, CQY37N (45¢), INF3850, INF3880, INF3940 (30¢). The current through the IR LED is limited to 100mA by the inclusion of the two 1N4148 diodes, as these form a constant-current arrangement when combined with the transistor and 5R6 resistor.

Electromagnetic Relays and Selection Specifications

Image
Electromagnetic Relay acts as a electrical switch operated by electromagnet. The coil on the relay forms the electromagnet. When excited by rated voltage, it pulls the moving portion of the relay contacts towards it resulting in electrical contact. Thus it turns a load circuit ON or OFF by energizing an electromagnet, which opens or closes contact in the circuit. A relay has one coil, but may have many contacts. The contact that changes is called pole and the non-moving contacts are called ways. When the coil is off, the contact with pole is called normally closed contact. (NO) The contact established after the coil is energized is called normally open contact. (NC) The coil and the contacts of a relay are electrically galvanically isolated from each other.   Relays finds wide use in timers, interlocks circuits, trips and safety units, changeover systems etc. The main parameters required for selection of a relay are, 1. Coil rating  2. Contact rating.  3 Operation ...
