  • FC3000 mods

  • The FC3000 is a very cheap, but quite decent classic arcade and console emulator device, I recently bought one and  decided to do some improvements to some of its weak points. This page will link some HAD projects with instructions to do some hacks...
  • BAT54C Schottky Diodes Datasheet

  • Product Overview Planar Schottky barrier diodes with an integrated guard ring for stress protection,encapsulated in a small SOT23 (TO-236AB) Surface-Mounted Device (SMD) plastic package. This blog will introduce BAT54C systematically from its features,...
  • The Soul of an Ancient Calculator

  • Around 1990 I picked up an old Sharp calculator from a flea market because it was only a couple of bucks and had 16 nixies. I believe it was this Sharp calculator model from 1969. I say I believe because at some point when I moved I threw away the case...
  • How Full Wave Rectification Works?

  • A rectifier is a type of electronic component that is used to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). It does this by allowing current to flow in only one direction, which is why it is called a rectifier. There are several different...
  • Super Servo for Everyone

  • So, your robot needs a POWERFUL SERVO. It has to be robust, cheap, readily available with off the shelf items and no complicated software or unattainium. You need it to run on 12 volts and be easy to understand. So did I. This project solves much if...
  • Wooden Buses

  • I made two wooden buses with two blocks of wood after seeing this article:https://hackaday.io/page/7078-led-busI used bright LEDs from a USB solar charger kit that I received from China. There were a few missing parts (rechargeable battery, wires,...
  • Garner oscillator

  • The Garner oscillator is a simple oscillator generating digital ready output that requires only a complementary pair of transistors and a few other components. It features: Very sharp edges.High fan out.Very low duty cycle.Frequency depends on a RC pair....
  • Diode-capacitor RAM

  • This isn't an original idea - I have found similar notions dating back to at least 1952! http://ed-thelen.org/comp-hist/SEAC&DYSEAC-5-150.pdf#page=11 Anyway, the idea is to make a DRAM memory cell with just a capacitor and two diodes. I played with one...
  • Liquid Flower

  • This article is about the liquid flower sculpture. The water is enclosed in a circular loop between the clear rubber tube and the water pump. You can see how my moving sculpture works in this video: This is zoomed in view: You can see that the air bubbles...
  • Plastic Bottle Submarine

  • This article is about a plastic bottle submarine that sinks but does not rise:You can see that I used cheap blue tack for water insulation.The water pump is driven by a 12 V battery.Watch the video of the submarine:Step 1: Make the RectifierMost cheap...
  • 2N2222A Transistor Datasheet

  • Product Overview 2N2222A is a NPN transistor hence the collector and emitter will be left open (Reverse biased) when the base pin is held at ground and will be closed (Forward biased) when a signal is provided to base pin. 2N2222A has a gain value of...
  • Best of golB yadakcaH

  • While I was off sick from work I ran out of things to look at on Hackaday blog, so I started reading it again - in reverse! It turns out there's a lot of good stuff there from back in the day. Here are a few of my favourites. Just remember, if the 'permalink'...
  • What is a PM Stepper Motor?

  • What is a Permanent Magnet Stepper Motor? Permanent magnet stepper motors (PM) are rotated by a magnetic rotor core through interacting with a pulsed electromagnetic field generated by the stator.Permanent magnet step motors are generally two-phase,...
  • Different Types of Diodes

  • Diodes are electrical components with two terminals and one-way current flow. The diode's ability to only allow the electric current to travel in one direction is well-known. When you need to rectify a waveform, you can use a diode in a radio detector...
