Connection Tester - A low resistance ( 0.25 4 ohm)
continuity tester for checking soldered joints and connections |
|
Dew Sensor - Dew (condensed moisture) adversely affects the
normal performance of sensitive electronic devices. A low-cost
circuit described here can be used to switch off any gadget
automatically in case of excessive humidity. At the heart of the
circuit is an inexpensive (resistor type) dew sensor element.
Although dew sensor elements are widely used in video cassette
players and recorders, these may not be easily available in
local market. |

741 Based Light Sensor - The circuit as shown act as a
light sensor. Under normal conditions the resistance of the LDR
is high, keeping pin 2 low. When light falls onto the LDR the
resistance drops to a couple hundred ohms and triggers pin 2
high which biases the base of Q1 via pin 6 and R4 and in turn
activates the relay.…. [Tony van Roon's circuit] |

Low-cost relative humidity transmitter uses single logic IC
- 8-Nov-01 Issue of EDN The low-cost
percentage-relative-humidity radio transmitter in Figure 1
operates in a cold-storage warehouse for vegetable storage at
temperatures of 1 to 5°C. It is generally difficult to collect
such data from a low-temperature area with high humidity and low
illumination. The transmitter design is simple It uses a
readily available, capacitor-type percentage-relative-humidity
se.... [Design Idea by Shyam Tiwari, Sensors Technology Ltd,

Measure humidity and temperature on one TTL line -
30-Aug-01 Issue of EDN By combining the responses of an Analog
Devices (www.analog.com] AD590 temperature sensor and a Humirel
(www.humirel.com] HS1101 humidity sensor, you can generate a
single TTL-level signal containing information from both sensors
(Figure 1]. This design uses a 74HC123 monostable multivibrator,
IC1, to form a free-running oscillator.... [Design Idea by Shyam

Remote humidity sensor needs no battery - 4-Apr-02 Issue of
EDN Using ac-line power sources and batteries for remote
humidity sensors is undesirable because these sources can be
troublesome if you mount them in inaccessible points, such as
smokestacks, cold-storage chambers, or darkrooms, where
maintenance is difficult and inconvenient. Figure 1 shows a
simple way to remove the power source from the humidity-sensor
circuit.... [Design Idea by Shyam Tiwari, Sensors Technology

Signal Conditioning Precisely indicates Humidity - 02/02/98
EDN-Design Ideas....The circuit in Figure 1 translates the level
of humidity from0 to 100% into a stable, respective dc signal
of0 to 100 mV. The heart of the circuit is IC1, the IH3602-C
relative-humidity sensor (Microswitch/HyCal Sensing Products,
Freeport, IL]. This device operates on 5V at 200 mA and
provides a dc output of0.8 to 4.0V.... [Design Idea by William

Transmitter senses triple relative-humidity figures -
26-Sep-02 Issue of EDN The circuit in Figure 1 is a triple,
relative-humidity sensor and radio transmitter. Sensors 1 and 2
form two gated oscillators with natural frequencies of 10 and 5
kHz, respectively, at relative humidity of 50%. The gated
oscillators use variable resistances R2 and R3, respectively.
Together, these two oscillators generate FSK-modulated outputs
at output of IC1B, Pin 6.... [Design Idea by Shyam Tiwari,
