Day by day LED technology is progressing by creating Bi-color LEDs. This concept emerged as a method to use various colors in a single module to design more complex visual displays. Engineers call these bi-color or dual-color LED modules because they include two different colored LEDs in a single package. Electronics projects commonly use these modules when they need visual indicators with various states and special color indicators for user interfaces and circuit boards. Thus, examples of … [Read more...]

LED Traffic Light Module : PinOut, Features, Specifications, Interfacing & Its Applications
The first traffic light (stoplights or traffic signals) was launched in December 1868 in London on Parliament Square to decrease the requirement of traffic police officers to control traffic. These systems use electricity & computerized control with superior traffic light technology and improved intersection capacity. This system can also be used for purposes like pedestrian movement control, railway level crossings, and variable lane control like smart motorways and tidal flow systems. … [Read more...]
KY-024 Hall Sensor : PinOut, Features, Specifications, Interfacing, Working & Its Applications
A linear magnetic hall sensor or hall-effect sensor is a module named after the physicist Edwin Herbert Hall who discovered the Hall-effect phenomenon. So this sensor detects the magnetic field strength by producing a voltage across a conductor whenever a current is supplied throughout it while arranged in a magnetic field. So it converts the magnetic field strength essentially into an electrical signal. Thus, the examples of linear magnetic hall sensors are KY-024, 49E, A3144, KY-035, etc. This … [Read more...]
LM337 IC : PinOut, Features, Specifications, Circuit, Working, Datasheet & Its Applications
Generally integrated circuits are available in different forms like logic gates, 555 timers, microprocessors, microcontrollers, op-amps, and voltage regulator ICs like LM338, LM358, LM337, LM741, LM324 IC, and LM339 IC. So a voltage regulator is an electronic circuit that supplies a stable voltage instead of changes within the input voltage (or) load. So it is a significant component in power supply circuits. This IC can be designed with discrete electronic components like transistors and … [Read more...]
KY-017 Module : PinOut, Equivalent, Specifications, Interfacing, Working, Datasheet & Its Applications
A switch that uses a small amount of mercury within a sealed glass tube to detect tilting is known as a mercury tilt switch. In 1922, Louis Austin Merritt Phelan invented a mercury switch through a glass envelope. After that, a more advanced mercury switch with a tubular glass envelope was invented in 1937 by Harold Olson. Whenever the switch tilts, then mercury will move and break the circuit. This is an electrical switch that opens & closes an electrical circuit whenever a small amount of … [Read more...]
PAM8302 IC : PinOut, Features, Specifications, Circuit, Working & Its Applications
Generally, a Class D audio amplifier is a PWM amplifier or a switching amplifier. The amplifying devices in this amplifier, like transistors and generally MOSFETs, work as electronic switches but not as linear gain devices like in other amplifiers. So the switches in this type of amplifier are either completely ON or OFF to reduce the power losses within the output devices. They work by quickly switching backward and forward in between the supply rails with a PWM technique to generate a pulse … [Read more...]
KY-006 Module : PinOut, Features, Specifications, Interfacing, Working, Datasheet & Its Applications
A buzzer is a small electronic voice device that generates sound through electrical signal transmission. So this device can generate different music sounds based on designs & applications like flute sounds, alarm sounds, buzzers, electric bells, etc. Whenever users activate this device, it works as an audible alert or notification device by generating a "buzzing" sound. Therefore, developers commonly use this device in different projects to generate sound feedback for user communications … [Read more...]
