Let’s designing a PIR motion sensor circuit that uses a Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor to control a buzzer through a 555 timer for motion detection applications. Here’s a step-by-step guide to creating this circuit: Components Needed: PIR sensor 555 timer IC Buzzer Resistors (various shown below) Capacitors (various shown below) NPN transistor (e.g., 2N2222 or […]
Let’s understand in detail what are the difference between Microprocessor and Microcontroller. Microprocessors and microcontrollers are both essential components in the field of electronics and computing, but they serve different purposes and have distinct architectures and applications. Here are the key differences between them: What is Microprocessor? A microprocessor is a central processing unit (CPU) […]
This article describes a sensor-less BLDC motor driver circuit using 555 timer and DRV10866 motor driver IC, suitable for driving small 5V BLDC fans without position sensors. The rise in the use of brushless DC motors (BLDCs) is driven by their efficiency, durability, and precision. However, controlling these motors typically requires rotor position information to […]
Let’s explore T flip flop truth table and working of its circuit with applications. A T flip-flop, also known as a toggle flip-flop, is a basic digital circuit element that has two stable states and can change state (toggle) based on a triggering input. T Flip Flop Circuit Diagram: Here’s the circuit diagram for a […]
In this article you will learn how to make an LED chaser circuit using 555 timer IC and CD4017 counter IC. An LED chaser circuit is a simple electronic circuit that creates a sequential chasing effect by illuminating a series of LEDs one after the other. It is a popular project for hobbyists and electronics […]
CD4029 is a Synchronous, Programmable, Presettable, 4 Bit Up/Down & Binary/Decade counter which is very much similar to the IC 74193, However, there is one notable change between IC74193 and CD4029: CD4029 has one unique pin that determines its counter configuration for Binary and BCD counter mode, allowing the IC to count similarly to binary […]
