Hello everyone! I hope you all will be absolutely fine and having fun. Today, I am going to explain you about Introduction to TL431. TL 431 are programmable shunt regulator diodes having three terminals. Its a low temperature coefficient diode and can be programmed from reference voltage (Vref) up to 36V when it is attached to 2 external resistors.
TL 431 has an impedance of 0.22 ohms and has a current range from 1mA to 100mA. In several different applications zener diodes can be replaced with TL 431 diode due to its efficiency. These applications include power supplies, Operational Amplifier (Op-amp) circuitry and digital voltmeters. TL-431 can either be used as positive or as negative voltage reference because it operates as shunt regulator. T ...
Hi Guys! Hope you’re well today. I welcome you on board. In this post, I’ll walk you through How to Install PCBWay Plugin for FreeCAD PCB Software.
Before we move further and help you with the installation of the plugin, let’s get a brief introduction to the FreeCAD software.
FreeCAD is a free and open-source parametric 3D modeler used to design real-life objects. With parametric modeling, you can easily modify your design and change its parameters. The tool is mainly used in mechanical engineering for product design and also proves to be handy in electrical engineering for electronic board designs. It supports Windows, Linux and macOS operating systems. Python programming language is primarily used to extend the overall functioning of the software.
Hope you’ve got an ...
If you own a WordPress website, you probably understand the importance of WordPress security. Keeping your website secure is necessary as it helps keep attackers and hackers away. Just like you would not leave your valuable assets exposed to thieves, you should safeguard your WordPress with the same security level.
Essentially, WordPress developers are constantly working towards preventing any potential hacking. But that's not enough to keep your website secure. You need to apply other measures to safeguard your site.
In this article, we will discuss ways of improving your WordPress website security;
Add WordPress security plugins
Security is key in running a website. There are various plugins to enhance your site security. These include Wordfen ...
Hello friends, hope you all are fine and having fun with your lives. Today, I am going to share a new circuit simulator and PCB Design software named as EasyEDA. You guys all are well aware of Proteus software which I share quite a lot on my blog for Circuit simulating. No doubt Proteus is quite a cool software but recently I got a chance to work on this amazing EasyEDA software. And I must admit that its better than Proteus software because of its cloud based EDA tools. Yes you have read correctly, in order to use this amazing software, you don't have to do anything you just need to create an account online and start designing your PCB designs. All your designs will be saved online so you dont have any tension about where to save your files. :)

Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. In today's tutorial, I am going to show you Arduino 74HC595 Interfacing and we will have a loook at How to Increase Arduino Output Pins with 74HC595. Suppose you are working on some project where you need to control 20 LEDs with Arduino UNO and you know we will 12 digital Pins so we can't control all of these 20 LEDs with Arduino UNO. We can use Arduino Mega as well but if we wanna stick to Arduino UNO then we need to increase its Output Pins and we will use 74HC595 for that purpose.
You should read this basic Introduction to 74HC595, it will help you to better understand this shift register. It's a Serial In Parallel Out Shift register and we will give it value serially from single Pin of Arduino and ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing well. In today's tutorial, we are going to design a Home Security System using Arduino UNO in Proteus software. It's the most commonly designed engineering project, especially in electrical, electronics and mechatronics engineering. Normally engineering students design it as a semester project during their engineering course.
So, today we will design a home security system from scratch in Proteus software. I have given the complete project below to download but I would suggest you to design it on your own so that you could understand it better. So, let's get started:
Home Security System: Project Description
Before going into the detail, let's first download the complete Proteus Simulation with Ardui ...
Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. Today, we are going to start Section-III of our Raspberry Pi 4 Programming Course. In this section, we will interface different Embedded Sensors with Raspberry Pi 4. Today's our first lecture in Section-III, so I am going to interface a simple LDR sensor with RPi4.
So, let's get started:

What is a photoresist?
It is a common practice to employ photoresistors to determine the presence or absence of visible light or to quantify the amount of ...
Signal and systems is an essential subject in electrical engineering and it is not just limited to this particular branch of engineering but students of many other branches such as computer engineering learn and practice this subject in their field. For design and analysis, all engineering topics make use of models of real-world things. Signals and systems provide you with the ability to take on the challenge of getting the job done.
Signal and system are two terms that, when studied and performed together, form a fantastic visualization of different phenomena. Have a look at these two terms.
What is the signal?
A signal is defined as the description of comparing two parameters and how they vary with each other. Signals are the representation of some sort of information with the help of ...
Hello everyone, we are back with a new project and we hope you all are doing well. In this article, we will discuss a project named Smart Irrigation System using Arduino UNO. We will use different sensors to measure the environmental and crop parameters which are responsible for good production. We will also make the water pump system automatic which will open the water valve automatically according to the soil moisture of the crop.
We will discuss all points and concepts briefly in this article and also provide a Proteus Simulation to observe how it will work in the real world. Complete fully explained code and simulation are also provided below as you go ahead in this article. You can download it from there.

Following this, we will configure bitwarden and host it on our Raspberry Pi 4. The last tutorial discussed utilizing a Raspberry Pi to install and run zeroTire on pi 4. By the end of the project, you will have learned how to set up a Raspberry Pi 4 with the necessary software for password management, including bitwarden, docker containers, and portainer, and how to configure their respective user interfaces.
Why Would You Do This?
An effective password manager is a must-have. For the past decade-plus, I've relied on a password manager. The catch is that not all security-focused apps are created equal. Initially, I relied on password managers in my browser, but I soon switched to KeePass. It was an intelligent move ten years ago. The export f ...
