Introduction to DIY Resetting Protector Circuit for Computer With the speed of development in technology, it is no wonder that a number of software have been developed to prevent computers from quick execution of rushed commands which are mostly accidental issues. However, even the most advanced computer programs do not offer protection against the accidental operation of the panel-mounted reset switch. This often leads to incomplete installation of software, improperly closed files, and results in useless memory accumulation in the hard disc. Therefore we need a device which can prevent…

Dynamic Temperature Indicator and Controller Using Ardunio
Here is a standalone Dynamic Temperature Indicator and Controller Using Ardunio that also controls the electric appliance according to temperature. The use of Arduino technology makes this closed-loop feedback control system efficient and reliable. Arduino allows dynamic and faster control. Here we used a rotary encoder and liquid crystal display for more users friendly. The sensed and set temperature values are simultaneously displayed on the LCD panel in centigrade which can be changed Kelvin in scale. Circuit Description of Dynamic Temperature Indicator and Controller Using Arduino The circuit is programmed…
Read MoreSound Operated Light and Alarm Circuit
Various types of security-based projects are already available on bestengineeringprojects.com. Now here is sound operated light and alarm that is used as an intruder alarm, activated when any sound is detected (like the opening of doors, knocking, or door opening) and starts flashing with a sound that alerts you of an intruder. After the second sound pulse is turned off. Circuit Description of Sound Operated Light and Alarm The circuit of sound-operated light and alarm is designed using a pair of timer IC (NE555), a dual JK flip flop IC…

Read MoreSound Operated On-Off Switch
Various remote control-based projects are already posted on bestengineeringprojects.com. Now here is a unique remote control circuit called a sound operated on-off switch and it responds only particular frequency of sound (4.5 kHz) and can control the device from a distance of up to 4.6 meters (15 feet). Most sound-operated switches use clap sound or voice to activate the remote control. Tone frequency generated by clapping or a voice control is not constant and designing a receiver circuit for a particular or ordinary clap or voice is very difficult. To…
