Capacitance Meter Circuit Using Transistors

circuit schematic

This capacitance meter circuit is similar with previous meter circuit, but it uses transistors rather than logic gates. Here is the schematic diagram: You can see the circuit uses pnp transistor, you can use almost any pnp transistors with frequency bandwidth og 100MHz and collecttor current handling capability of 100 mA to replace [...]

Capacitance Meter

circuit schematic

Capacitance meter can be very helpful in identifying old components where its mark has been erased or became unreadable. Such instrument can be quite expensive, but fortunately we can build it easily with much lower cost. The capacitance meter described here can measure any capacitor between 1pF and 10uF. Here is the schematic diagram of [...]

Notch Filter: The Circuit’s Diagram and The Design Formula

circuit schematic

Notch filter is known as band-cut filter or band-reject filter. The fuction of this filter is to remove some frequency portion of a signal. The schematic diagram of this filter circuit, a second order notch filter is depicted in the figure below. The formula is actually complicated, but by taking the R3=R4 and [...]

LM1830 Single Chip Water Level Sensor Circuit: Basically A Conductive Liquid Level Sensor

circuit schematic

For any electrically conductive liquid level measurement, this single chip circuit is very compact and simple. This circuit is an ac excited fluid level sensor, which uses alternating current to provide biasing for the sensor probe to avoid electrolysis of the probes.  This ac excitation makes the sensing probe has longer lifetime. This circuit can [...]

Low Cost High Level Preamp and Tone Control Circuit

circuit schematic

For the best advantage as a low noise high input impedance device, the preamp and tone control uses JFET. If the circuit reaches harmonic distortion levels of less than 0.05% with a S/N ratio of over 85 dB, all device parameters are non-critical. 18 dB of cut and boost is allowed by the tone controls. [...]

Square Oscillator Using Comparator: The Circuit Schematic Diagram and The Formula

circuit schematic

Using a single supply quad comparator LM339, LM239, LM2901, LM2901V, NCV2901, or MC3302, we can build a square-wave oscillator with simple circuit and formula. Here is the schematic diagram: This circuit is suitable if you need  many square-wave oscillators in one circuit, since the quad packaged comparator provide four comparators in one single  [...]
