High Voltage Regulator – 48V DC Output from 125V DC Input
The project published here is a high-voltage adjustable regulator with an output 48 V DC from an input supply of 125V DC. The circuit is capable to drive load current up to 500mA. This regulator circuit designed for use in high-voltage applications where standard bipolar regulators...

This reflective sensor module is a high-performance 0-5 cm active proximity detector. The sensor can provide a range up to 50cm with higher current infra-red LED and current limit resistor R2, R4 used across IR LED. Because the sensor operates on an absolute reflectance threshold...
Continue ReadingMeasuring Water Flow Rate and Volume using Arduino and a Flow Sensor
Flow rate and volume helps tell the amount of fluid going into, or through a particular vessel. For certain process automation applications, this simple-sounding fluid measurement task is so critical to the success of the project that, failure to get it right, could bring the entire...
Continue ReadingArduino based Milliohm Meter with LCD display
One of the best things about being a maker is the ability to make your own tools. We have covered the development of several electronics tools in past, from voltmeters to battery testers. For today's tutorial, we will add another tool to the list by examining the development of a Miliohm...
Continue Reading0 to 5V output Analog Hall Sensor for Foot Controller
This project includes an analog Hall Effect sensor and an Op-Amp circuit which can be used as position or angular sensing with the benefits of no contact and wearing, high stability and wide sensing range. Two configurations of the magnet and Hall sensors are analyzed. Trimmer...
