220VAC Christmas Flashing Light

This circuit is line powered flasher, can be used in any application, and Christmas lamp is one of the example.  Look at the circuit’s schematic diagram below: The control for triggering the SCR is done by  Q1, Q2 and related resistors. The timing depends on R1,R2 & C1. To change flashing frequency don’t modify R1 and R2 values: set C1 […]

Slave Flash Light Control Using Only Three Components

You can use this circuit to give auto trigger for your secondary flash light. You don’t have to worry about wiring for the control, because using this circuit your secondary flash will be automati8cally triggered when it receive the light signal from the primary flash. Look at the circuit’s schematic diagram below. The inductor 68mH is connected in parallel with […]

Variable (Adjustable) Current Limiter Circuit

This circuit provide automatic current limiting up to 8.4A. Unlike current limiter that uses only a resistor, this current limiting circuit doesn’t drop the voltage, or at least keep the voltage drop at minimum, until a certain current amount is exceeded. This current amount limit is adjustable from 1.4 A to 8.4A using a potentiometer. You can modify the component […]
