IR Remote Control Tester
Components required: PCB, 9v Battery, Jumper Wires, PNP transistor, IR sensor (TSOP1738), LED, etc.
Circuit Diagram: Schematics
of IR Remote Control Tester
Description:
A PNP transistor A1015
will work as switch and TSOP1738 used as infrared sensor. When the IR waves received by the infrared
sensor it will make the transistor ON and the LED in the circuit will start
blinking.
Note: One can also used Buzzer in place of
LED

LED Flasher using 555 timer IC
Components required: PCB, 9v Battery, Jumper Wires, 555 Timer IC, Capacitor 1μF, Resistor
(1k Ohm and 470k Ohm, LED, etc.
Description:
1.Place the 555 Timer IC in the middle of the PCB.
2.connect Pin 1 to ground
3.Connect Pin 4 with Pin 8 and then Connect Pin 8
to VCC (+ve of battery).
4.Connect Pin 6 with Pin 2 and then connect pin 2
with ground via capacitor.
5.470k Ohm
(R1) resistor connect between Pin 6 and Pin 7
6.connect Pin 7 to VCC via Resister (R2) 1 k Ohms
7.Connect one end of the second 1k Ohm (R3)
resistor with Pin 3 and second end of resister connect with positive terminal
of LED.
8.The negative leg of LED connects with the GND.
9.Connect the 9v battery
Note:Other
devices, such as a buzzer or a speaker, can be used in place of the LED for
specific applications.

Voltage Doubler
A voltage doubler is an electronic circuit which charges capacitors from the input voltage and switches these charges in such a way that, in the ideal case, exactly twice the voltage is produced at the output as at its input.
Components required: Power supply, Transformer, 2 Diodes, 2 Capacitors, connecting wire etc.
Circuit Diagram:
Description: The circuit consists of two half-wave peak detectors. Each of the two peak detector cells operates on opposite half-cycles of the incoming waveform. Since their outputs are in series, the output is twice the peak input voltage.
