What is a thermopile? Thermopile works as a smart device that converts thermal energy into electrical signals. It’s composed of many thermocouples made from dissimilar metals, connected in series or parallel, and when exposed to a temperature difference, it starts generating voltage. This thermoelectric effect is the key principle behind how these electronic tools function […]

Introduction From my years working with electrical panels, I’ve seen many breaker issues that people overlook until faults start to show. The most common signs include damage from overloading or general wear and tear that can fail the functioning of your circuit. Knowing how to spot a faulty breaker early is necessary to protect your

Introduction When working on your electrical projects, there’s always one essential product I reach for: dielectric grease. I discovered it in a university lab. There, it was used on spark plug connectors, light bulbs, and circuit terminals. It helped prevent corrosion, much like wax does, by acting as a reliable protectant. Though it’s not a

Introduction As an electrician and long-time enthusiast of electronics, I’ve often come across the frustration of devices not working—only to find that an open circuit was the real issue. When the flow of current is disrupted due to a broken connection, faulty component, or loose wiring, lights stop turning on and functionality is lost. By

Introduction During my early days working with digital systems, I often came across devices that needed a steady signal. One such vital electronic component is the local oscillator, a simple yet powerful tool that converts DC supply into an oscillating AC wave. It plays a critical role in generating frequency-based outputs that are essential for

Linear motion is a basic idea, but it has a big impact on the world around you. It means moving something in a straight line, either forward, backward, up, or down. Without linear motion, many of the tools and products we use would not be possible. From small 3D printers to large robotic arms, linear

When we require the board to carry more complex circuits, we need to use multilayer PCBs. However, before the design, we must understand the characteristics of multilayer PCBs and the need to pay attention to some points of multilayer PCB design. Below, we will talk in detail about the characteristics of multilayer PCBs and design

The growing trend of digitalization, wireless connectivity, and automation has boosted the market for electronics manufacturing, with daily production across the globe. Technology is constantly evolving, pushing for feature-rich devices that are smaller and faster. These devices rely on tiny components mounted on printed circuit boards (PCBs) to operate according to their functions. Components are

Flexible PCBs are advantageous due to their light, thin, and strong adaptability. They are commonly found in the circuits of electronic devices such as smartphones, wearable devices, and medical equipment, as these devices require PCBs with high space and flexibility requirements. Flexible PCB manufacturers are emerging in these new areas. This article will delve into

Introduction In my time working with electrical and electronic systems, I’ve come across many switches, but the temperature switch stands out as significant. It’s used across industries to ensure the control operation of machinery, especially where temperature changes must be closely monitored. Whether it’s a toggle, slide, push, or rotary button, each switch plays a
