5 band graphic equalizer using a single IC/chip

The BA3812L is a five-point graphic equalizer that has all the required functions integrated onto one IC. The IC is comprised of the five tone control circuits and input and output buffer amplifiers. The BA3812L features low distortion, low noise, and wide dynamic range, and is an ideal choice for Hi-Fi stereo applica-tions. It also has a wide operating voltage range (3.5V to 16V), which means that it can be adapted for use with most types of stereo equipment.

TV remote control Blocker

Just point this small device at the TV and the remote gets jammed .   The circuit is self explanatory . 555 is wired as an astable multivibrator for a frequency of nearly 38 kHz. This is the frequency at which most of the modern TVs receive the IR beam . The transistor acts as a current source supplying roughly 25mA to the infra red LEDs. To increase the range of the circuit simply decrease the value of the 180 ohm resistor to not less than 100 ohm.

1.5V LED FLASHER

To squeeze even more energy from a alkaline battery cell, this circuit adds two transistors to a circuit similar to the above design to boost the efficiency. A small 1.5 volt alkaline N cell should flash the LED for a full year. It too uses a "charge pump" technique to provide a LED the needed voltage.

12V to 120V Inverter

Have you ever wanted to run a TV, stereo or other appliance while on the road or camping? Well, this inverter should solve that problem. It takes 12 VDC and steps it up to 120 VAC. The wattage depends on which tansistors you use for Q1 and Q2, as well as how "big" a transformer you use for T1. The inverter can be constructed to supply anywhere from 1 to 1000 (1 KW) watts.

5v Regulated Solar Power Supply

The circuit consists of an oscillator transistor and a regulator transistor.
The solar panel charges the battery when sunlight is bright enough to produce a voltage above 1.9v. A diode is required between the panel and the battery as it leaks about 1mA from the battery when it is not illuminated

Door Knock Beeper

In some apartment buildings and homes, not equipped with a door bell, it may be hard to hear someone knocking on the front door.  The circuit below provides a means to activate a loud beeping sound inside, whenever someone knocks on the door from the outside.  The circuit is powered by a 9v battery, which should provide years of service.  An on/off switch allows the device to be turned off if desired.

3-Pin Fan in 4-Pin Socket

The most recent PC motherboards provide four pin connectors for cooling fans especially for the CPU fan. The older three pin fans are controlled by varying their DC voltage. The fourth pin on the newer connectors supplies a PWM signal to control fan speed. A three pin fan can be plugged into the four pin connector but with its fixed 12 V supply it runs at full speed all the time the PC is switched on.

5 VOLT MOMENTARY OPERATION TOUCH SWITCH

This simple circuit uses a single IC to form a nice touch switch circuit.  A single transistor forms the remote active switch sensor.  Multiple switches can be wired in parallel.  The switch circuit can be located about 500 feet from the control circuit.
