G-switch timer – Vern Knowles

The timer is built using four small inexpensive CMOS integrated circuits. This allows it to run on just 3V from two small AAA batteries. U1 is a 74HC688 8-bit equality comparator. It compares the...

Flashing Mains Neon Lamp

Here is a Neon Flasher circuit (untested) for a user request at Elex Quna. This can be built into a switchboard or a gadget for indicating Live Power. D1-C1 form a simple half-wave rectifier,...

Experiments with the LM2575

The standard buck regulator circuit delivers a +5V output. This is a rather straightforward circuit and will operate with a wide spread of component values. Optimal values should be selected however to get minimal...
