One of the interesting features of CA3130 op-amp  is its high input resistance, because using such high  input resistance, we can build an astable multivibrator with high R/C ratios. The figure below shows the circuit’s schematic diagram, you can see the variable resistors to adjust the “on” and “off” periods independently. Resistors R1and [...]

Current handling capability of a power supply system often needed to be checked. Finding high power rated variable resistor to provide variable load testing might be difficult. There is wire wound type but it’s not always available at your local store, and the price and performance might be disappointing. This variable high power “resistor” uses [...]

The high durability nature of a light emitting diode (LED) make it suitable for ON/OFF indicator application. Because the limitation on low operating voltage, LEDs are normally applied on low voltage application.  Fortunately, there is a simple method to apply LED indicator for high powerline voltage: reactance of a capacitor can be used to limit [...]

Basic interruptible Power Supply Circuit consist of regular power supply adapter and battery connection. This basic system is a “hot” battery connection, meaning that there is no switching mechanism in connecting and disconnecting the battery, the battery is always connected! This hot connection is very simple to implement and very robust because there would [...]

This circuit is used to prevent the damaging effects of a reversed-polarity battery or short-circuit load. It is used to replace the simple fuse that usually used for overcurrent protection because the fuse has long reaction time and high resistance. This circuit consist of dual comparator, a combination of current amplifier, and external CMOS. A [...]

When you switch on your amplifier, you can see your speaker pop up with high power, and it can be harmful to your speaker. To make your speaker’s life time last longer, you have to avoid such situation. You can use an electronic circuit to protect your speaker, that connect your speaker to your power [...]
