BCD counter, MC 14543 BCD to 7 segment decoder/driver/latch, and three seven segment LED displays with three PNP switching Transistors. The output of temperature sensor changes linearly as a function of temperature. The output is connected to a summing amplifier, which is used to calibrate the output of the temperature sensor for a desired temperature type (K, C or F) and an intended range. That is, to display the temperature in K, C or F, you have to adjust the 10K POT according to suit the voltage appears at the output of the summing amplifier. Since the output of the temperature sensor is directly proportional to the temperature changes. The output of the Inverting amplifier is the input of Voltage to Frequency converter, therefore the output frequency of the converter is directly proportional to the output voltage of the inverting amplifier. The output frequency of the converter is then ANDed with the gating signal to produce the clock signal for the tree digit BCD counter. The BCD output of the counter drives the three bit LED display sequentially via the BCD to 7 segment decoder and the temperature is displayed on the LED. The temperature sensor LM334 is a three terminal adjustable current source whose current can be programmed from 1 A to 10mA with one external Resistor. The three terminals are labelled +V, R and -V. The pin out is shown above.
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
