Dual-Priority Encoder Circuit with 74148 and 74266 ICs

Imagine this: you’re a traffic cop in the middle of a very busy intersection. Cars from every direction are honking, each one demanding to go first. You’ve gotta make a decision, right? Now, picture that some of these cars have more “urgency” than others—maybe an ambulance is in the mix, but there’s also a VIP car behind it. Wouldn’t it be useful to know not only who needs to go first but also who should go second? Well, in the world of digital electronics, that’s what we’re doing with this…

Automatic Phase Changeover Circuit for Continuous Power Supply

Engineeering Projects
automatic phase changeover circuit

The most important feature in a three-phase electrical system is that the supply of power to critical equipment must not be interrupted, especially at places where voltage fluctuations are common. The practical solution for this problem is an automatic phase changeover circuitry. It enables the equipment to smoothly switch to another phase in case one or more phases have low voltage, thereby ensuring a continuous power supply. In this article, we explain how an automatic phase changeover circuit works, what its main components are, and how you can build a…
