Hacks of Electronics
Most electronics projects are characterized by breadboards, jumper wires, ICs, power supplies, and several other discrete components, such as resistors, transistors, and capacitors. But are wiring harnesses necessary? Cable assemblies are not really necessary in such projects because all you need are jumper wires. However, they provide several benefits, which I’ll explain below to justify […]
Weather monitoring is essential for various applications, from agriculture to home automation. The Arduino-based Weather Station using the BME680 sensor allows users to measure temperature, humidity, pressure, and gas resistance. The data will be displayed on an I2C LCD screen in cyclical manner, also it calculates Dew Point using Magnus formula and Altitude from pressure. […]
Wireless projects are always fascinating, adding flexibility and convenience to electronics applications. Among various wireless technologies, RF modules are widely used due to their simplicity and affordability. In this project, we will build a 433MHz RF transmitter and receiver circuit to control LEDs wirelessly. This guide will cover the components required, circuit design, and working […]
Counters are fundamental digital circuits used in sequential logic for counting purposes. They are broadly classified into two types: Synchronous Counters and Asynchronous Counters. Understanding the difference between synchronous and asynchronous counters helps in choosing the right type for specific applications in digital electronics. These counters play a crucial role in modern digital systems, ranging […]
An Asynchronous Counter, also known as a Ripple Counter, is a type of digital counter where the clock signal is applied to only the first flip-flop, and subsequent flip-flops toggle based on the output of the previous one. This introduces a propagation delay, making it “asynchronous.” Asynchronous Binary Counter Terminology Here’s a breakdown of all […]
This guide provides an in-depth look at various types of capacitors, their Symbol, construction, working principles, advantages, disadvantages, and applications. Capacitors are essential components in electronic circuits, serving a wide range of applications such as energy storage, filtering, timing, and coupling. They are classified into three main categories: Fixed Capacitors, Variable Capacitors, and Special Purpose […]
