Zener diode regulator is a basic electronic circuit which is very useful for those interested in hobby circuits. This circuit is used for obtaining a regulated voltageat the output which can be used for biasing other circuit elements. Now how to use zener diode as voltage regulator When zener is in reverse breakdown region, the zener voltage remai

ns almost constant irrespective of the current through it. The major benefit of using zener diode as a voltage regulator is that it helps us to avoid the bulky&costly DC source to a great extend. Now lets see how to make a ZENER VOLTAGE REGULATOR. The circuit only contains a zener diode and passive electronic element- resistor. Active source is provided for power supply to the circuit. Zener voltage regulator is also known as Zener voltage limiter due to its voltage regulation property irrespective of the current through the zener diode. If input voltage decreases, IL remains the same. Iz &Is decreases. If Iz falls lower than minimum zener current required to keep the Zener in breakdown region, the regulation will stop and voltage at output will decrease.
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.....
