Hammond Transformers 6V6 Push-Pull Tube Amplifier

Under Category : Power Amplifier

This 6V6 amp was built following the push-pull (PP) EL84 / 6V6 Dynaco A-410 output transformer schematic. There are a few minor deviations from the original schematics. Instead of Dynaco transformers, Hammond 1608A audio output transformers and a Hammond 272HX power transformer were used. The EL84 / 6V6 PP Dynaco A-410 output transformer schematic showed [...]

40 Watt Fluorescent Strobe Lamp Schematic

Under Category : Laser, Led, Other Circuits

The circuit works much like the original Strobos. except that a fluorescent tube is used. Thus, the fluorescent tube zündbereit remains constant, the two electrodes of the tube are continuously transformer Ta1 supplied with electricity. This current makes the two resistance wires of the glow tube in, so the mercury evaporates into the tube and [...]

Several RC5 Infrared Transmitter Circuit

Under Category : Other Circuits

RC5 is not suitable as a barrier to race out to whoever is the winner. Two or more RC5 channel interfere with each other and the protocol itself also takes time for the transfer. If more than one car with RC5 transmitter arrive close together, it can well be the first and the second triggers [...]

Proximity Detector Circuit Based 555 IR

Under Category : Detector

Description Sometimes you want a simple solution to a problem and you don’t mind if your main controller has to do the work. This IRPD requires the main robot processor to choose which side to look at, and requires it to “debounce” the results for reliably operation. But, it still works really well without any [...]

Obstruction Detector With 12C508 IR

Under Category : Detector

Description This project is inspired by the DPRG IRPROX project. They have a pretty good PCB layout and idea. I would like to thank them for posting their project for all of us to see and learn from, I wouldn’t have started PIC programming without them, or at least not nearly as quickly come up [...]

LED Matrix CUBE Controller Schematic 5x5x5

Under Category : Led

You might have seen many videos around you tube showing off crazy LED cubes, forming 3-D structures etc. But haven’t find anything that explains how this is being done. Well searching over internet i found this great project made using a PIC 16F688 microcontroller used to control a 5x5x5 LED matrix cube.
