LM134-LM10 Thermometer/Temperature Sensor

Using LM134 and LM10 integrated circuits, we can build a thermometer which has -55 to 150°C sensing range.  The ideal meter for this circuit is a 0-200uA digital ampere meter, which can show both positive and negative polarity. This will make the circuit suitable for indicating temperatures below 0°C.  LM134 is basically a current source with very accurate and consistent […]

Logarithmic Light Intensity Meter for Photography

Using LM10 amplifier and voltage reference, a light intensity meter featured with five decades dynamic range (which is suitable for photographic application) can be built.  Please note that the linear to log conversion is not temperature compensated, and can make 40% error (a half stop in photography) at the worst point of conversion slope at ±18°C temperature drift. It should […]

Audio-Controlled Incandescent Lamp Light Controller

This is a audio-controlled lamp circuit. This circuit requires low voltage input such as pre-amplifiers, tone control, or general audio line level output. It’s also possible to feed the input with signal from small power amplifier output, or high power amplifier witk low volume level. The characteristic of lamp dimming (incandescent lamp) will look like coming from proportional controller since […]

EGR Temperature Sensor – Video Tutorial

This is a EGR valve temperature sensor video. This video describe how the EGR valve temperature sensor works. The EGR gasses temperature sensor works like the coolant temperature sensor. The sensor uses the thermistor that has negative temperature Coefficient. That means the resistance decreases with increasing temperature. Here is the tutorial video: The operation of the EGR temperature sensor is […]
