In past, we have published many brushed dc motor driver boards for various projects and usually, they have some sort of limitations, as some of them are large in size, require large size heatsink, doesn’t have current feedback, they don't have overload protection, some require...

The project described here is a high voltage step-down regulator based on A4447 general-purpose buck converter chip from Allegro Semiconductor. The output voltage of the board is configured at 3.3V, but it is adjustable from 0.8 to 24V, based on the resistor divider R2 and R5....

This is a precision, low power oscillator that occupies very little space.  The oscillator frequency is adjustable using an onboard multi-turn trimmer potentiometer. The output of the circuit is very accurate and has a 1.5% frequency error. The project operates with a single 5V power...

This is a step-down DC-DC converter mainly designed for application such as high-cell-count battery packs, power tools, garden tools and electric scooters, drones. Some of the features of the project is precision enable, input voltage UVLO, internal soft start etc. The project...

The circuit presented here is a LED light stick which changes its color in respect with the room temperature. This is an Arduino compatible open source project consisting of 20 x WS2812B Addressable RGB LEDs, LM35 Temperature Sensor and ATmega328 microcontroller. Atmega328...

In general, generating an LED fade effect requires a microcontroller or another expensive circuit. We have built this low-cost LED fading board using an inexpensive 555 Timer. The 555 timer is used as an astable multivibrator, which generates low-frequency pulses, further, this pulse...

This is a highly efficient and compact project that is capable of driving a 3A load with excellent line and load regulation and adjustable output of 1.2V to 35V DC.  The project is built around the LM2596-ADJ regulator which is ideally suited for easy and convenient design of...

This is a mini DC-DC converter with dual output from single 5V DC supply or USB power source (e.g., +/-18V from 5V/USB). The mini board will fit into small space and perform with high efficiency. Basically, the circuit transfers power from 5V/USB to the output side +/-18V with high...
