opto reflective sensor circuit using 555 ic

The DIY project posted here is of Opto Reflective Sensor using 555 IC and TCRT5000 module. These sensors are photoelectric sensors, which signifies that they rely on photo or light and do not need to be in contact with any other objects to sense. When a beam of light between the reflector and light sensor is interfered, that is when the sensor sends electrical signals. These electrical alerts are the information to the output unit. These days opto reflective sensor is used in various projects like proximity sensing, position detector,…

Phase Sequence Change Indicator

Engineeering Projects
3-phase sequence change indicator

The project phase sequence change indicator using 555 IC is used to indicate whether there is a change in phase sequence occurring or not by a beeper or a LED. We all know that in three-phase motor phase sequence is important because the change in phase sequence may cause trouble in machines. Circuit Description of Phase Sequence Change Indicator The circuit of phase sequence change indicator is divided into two main sections i.e. controlling section and the beeper section. The circuit of the phase sequence change indicator is shown in…

pachisi electronics game circuit

Pachisi game is a game similar to backgammon played mostly in Indian subcontinent, in which cones and cowries shells are used instead of counter and Dice. The game is played on a board between two persons, with the pieces moved in accordance with the throws of the cones or cowrie shells. This is an interesting game to test the ‘frustration quotient’ of the players. The rectangular board includes a number of red and green circles. Opponents start from the same square and move in opposite directions. The player who reaches…

Engineeering Projects
multiplexer circuit for 10 channel

This project is a low-cost multiplexing system for ten channels. The project 10-channel multiplexer circuit using 555 IC can be used as an add-on device for a single point indicating system. Both auto and manual selection are incorporated with the visual indication of channel number. It is suitable for signals concerning a common line. However, for double-ended signals, the input LOW lines can be made common and the input High lines can be multiplexed. This can be used for thermocouple signals, strain gauges, and any other AC/DC signal in the…

Power Saver Circuit Diagram using PIR

Engineeering Projects
PIR sensor

People are always in rush these days and they forget important things like turning the lights off in addition to a few other electrical devices. This results in either an electrical explosion or wastage of power. And, so to eradicate such issues, we have developed a Power Saver Circuit Diagram based on a Passive infrared sensor that employs a PIR motion sensor to detect the presence of human beings and as they leave the room, turn any electrical appliances connected to the circuit after a certain defined time interval. The…
