Hello friends, I hope you all are happy, healthy and, content. We have been discussing transistors lately, from the basic definition to the types and characteristics of transistors we have covered it all. If you have a brief idea about transistors, you must be aware of the field effect transistor or you might have heard or read about it somewhere, it is one of the earliest known types of transistors which is our topic of discussion today.
Field Effect Transistors were made to cover up the lacking of previously known transistors which occupied large space and produced a lot of noise, another major problem was the low reliability of previous versions. So, let's get started with the FETs.
Definition of Field Effect Transistor
Let us define field effect transistor first,
"The Field e ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. In today's tutorial, we are gonna have a look at detailed Introduction to ACS712. ACS712 is an AC or DC current sensor, which is used to measure AC or DC current. You should also have a look at Difference between AC & DC Power, that will help. The maximum value of AC and DC which can be measured is 30A, its output current signal can be read via analog I/O port of Arduino. It is also available in 5A and 20A version which provides precise and economical solutions for AC or DC current sensing in industrial and commercial systems.
ACS712 consists of a precise and low offset linear Hall sensor circuit with a copper conduction path located near the surface of the die. ACS712 is used in different industrial projects and commercial electr ...
Hi Friends! Happy to see you around. I welcome you on board. In this post today, I’ll discuss the Introduction to 1n5820.
The 1n5820 is a Schottky diode, also known as a hot-carrier diode, capable of extremely fast switching and is well protected against overvoltage. It carries a low forward voltage drop and high forward surge capability. It is capable of high-frequency operation and comes in the DO-201AD package. When less power dissipation is required, MOSFETs can be used in place of Schottky diodes.
Just stay with me for a little while as I’ll walk you through the datasheet, pinout, features, and applications of this device 1n5820.
Let’s jump right in.
Introduction to 1N5820
1n5820 is a Schottky diode composed of semiconductor material and ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. In today's tutorial, I am going to share a new Rain Sensor Library for Proteus. I have got a lot of requests for designing this sensor. So finally it has been designed by our team and is ready to use in your Proteus Simulations.
Rain Sensor, as the name shows, is used for detection of rain and is common sensor used in Embedded Systems Projects. Both analog and digital rain sensors are available these days but we have only designed the digital Rain Sensor. It will give digital output and its output will be HIGH when there's rain and will remain LOW if it won't detect any rain.
As Proteus is a simulation software and we can't actually bring the rain so that's why I have placed a TestPin. If you apply H ...
Hello everyone! I hope you all will be absolutely fine and having fun. In the tutorial Interfacing Temperature & Humidity Sensor with Arduino I will tell you that how can you interface temperature and humidity sensor named as DHT11 with Arduino and how can you observe the temperature and humidity level using this sensor. This sensor has usually three pins but some of its types has four pins but only the three pins are of importance for us e.g. VCC, GND and the third pin for reading the data from the sensor.
In the tutorial Interfacing Temperature & Humidity Sensor with Arduino, I will make a simple Arduino program which will estimate the level of temperature and humidity continuously and will display the value of both temperature and hum ...
Hello friends, hope you all are fine and having fun with your lives. Today, I am going to share a new project named LPG Gas Leak Detector using Arduino in Proteus ISIS. Before reading this tutorial, you must first download the Gas Sensor Library for Proteus because we are gonna use that Library and will simulate the Gas Sensor in Proteus.
In this library you will find eight sensors and all of them works exactly the same so that's why we are gonna use one of them. For LPG Gas Leak Detector Project I have used MQ-2 sensor which is used for detection of LPG gas. I have also used Arduino UNO board which you can simulate in Proteus using Arduino Library for Proteus. Moreover, I have also placed an LCD which will display either LPG gas Leak Detected or ...
Hi Guys! Hope you’re well today. I welcome you on board. Happy to see you around. In this post today, I’ll detail the Introduction to Arduino Sensor Shield.
Arduino Sensor Shield is a board compatible with the Arduino Boards and comes with the standard header layout. It is used to connect sensors, servos, LCD with the Arduino board without soldering. This board is connected with the Arduino Board using the jumper wires.
I suggest you read this post all the way through as I’ll be discussing the complete Introduction to Arduino Sensor Shield.
Let’s get started.
Introduction to Arduino Sensor Shield
Arduino Sensor Shield is a board used to connect sensors, servos, LCD with the Arduino Board without the requirement of soldering.

Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing great. In today's post, I am going to share a Final Year Project in detail, named as Real Time Security Control System using XBee and GSM. I will give you all the details so that you can easily design it on your own. I've given the Proteus Simulation to download below. In that zip file, you will get both the Arduino codes and Proteus Simulations.
I have divided this whole project design into four parts. If you got into any trouble in your project, then ask in comments and I will try my best to resolve them. So, today we are gonna have a look at the basics of this Security project. There are a lot of systems introduced in the market these days that are used to transfer sensor data from one node to another ei ...
Hello friends! I hope you are doing great. In this tutorial, we are discussing the upgraded version of the Arduino Nano. Before this, we discussed the Arduino Nano library for Proteus and the Arduino Nano library for Proteus V2.0. The new version of the Arduino Nano library for Proteus V3.0 has a better structure and is working better. We will discuss it in detail in just a bit.
In this article, I will discuss the basic introduction of Arduino Nano. We will learn how to download and install this library in Proteus and will create a simple project with this library. Let’s move towards our first topic:
What is the Arduino Nano?
The Arduino Nano was released in 2008 by Arduino. cc and it is an open-source microcontroller board that has a great scope in the embedded industry.This boar ...
Update: We have created a new version of this library, which you can check here: Arduino Mega 2560 Library for Proteus V2.0.
Hello friends, hope you all are fine. In today's post, I am going to share Arduino Mega 2560 Library for Proteus. In the previous post, I have shared the Arduino UNO Library for Proteus and I have mentioned that I am gonna share more Arduino Libraries soon. Actually these days I am quite excited about this Proteus component designing and I am designing the Arduino boards as a starter. So, till now I have designed two Arduino boards in Proteus. First one was Arduino UNO which I have provided for download in previous post and today, I am going to share Arduino Mega 2560 Library for Proteus.
In the coming posts, I am gonna sh ...
