Are Electronic Calculators Still Relevant in the Age of Smartphones?
We’re surrounded by lots of “smart” things: phones that do more than we ever expected, apps that solve equations, graph functions with a tap, or even voice-command calculators. With all that power in our hands, it’s fair to wonder—are old-school electronic calculators still useful? Turns out, the answer is yes. The Invention of Electronic Calculators […]
4 Simple Clap Switch Circuits Using NE555 Timer, CD4017 IC & Transistors
A clap switch circuit is a popular DIY electronics project that lets you control an electronic device by clapping your hands. The circuit uses the sound of a clap as a trigger to turn the device ON or OFF. It finds wide use in home automation, interactive projects, and temporary lighting solutions. In this article, […]
Photocoupler (Optocoupler / Optoisolator) – Construction, Working, Types & Applications
In modern electronics, signal isolation between different parts of a circuit is crucial for protection, noise reduction, and system stability. Optocouplers, also known as optoisolators, play a vital role in achieving this electrical isolation while allowing signal transmission. This article provides a thorough exploration of optocouplers (Optoisolator / Photocoupler), including their construction, working principles, advantages, […]
Seven Segment Display: Types, Working, Pin Diagram & Applications
We see numbers displayed on many electronic devices around us, like digital clocks, calculators, microwave ovens, and scoreboards. But have you ever wondered how these numbers appear on the screen? One of the most common ways to show numbers in electronic devices is by using a Seven Segment Display. It is a simple electronic component […]
Difference Between Photodiode, Phototransistor and Photoresistor
In the field of electronics and optoelectronics, light-sensitive devices play a crucial role in converting light signals into electrical signals. Among the most widely used light sensors are the Photodiode, Phototransistor, and Photoresistor (also known as Light Dependent Resistor or LDR). Though they all respond to light, their construction, working principles, advantages, disadvantages, and applications […]
