LM555 IC PWM Motor speed Controller



Introduction

Hey everyone in this session we will discuss about working of PWM based motor speed controller, LED brightness controller.

Components Required

1)LM555 IC
2)IRFZ44N or any N-Channel Mosfet
3)1N4148*2
4)1N5819*1
5)10nF, 100uF*1, 470uF*1
6)200K VR
7)330R, 1K, 2.2K, 10K
8)LED*1
9)LM7812 Regulator IC
10)100uF Inductor

Working

For controlling motor speed or LED brightness we generally use linear regulator which is simple in making but they don't have better efficiency as compared to PWM based controller so for that reason I made PWM controller with the help of very famous IC LM555, which is used in astable multivibrator mode. For controlling output we need to control the on time and off time of the switching mosfet it means we need to adjust duty cycle from 0% to 100% so that we can get desired voltage at the output.

Here we see a inductor which is used to smooth the output.


Testing 

For the load testing we use 12v motor and 4v high power led.

XL6009 Buck Boost Converter

                                           Introduction Hey there in this session we will discuss how the buck boost converter works, here I am using XL6009 module and upgrade to buck boost converter. Components Modified Inductor  XL6009 Boost Converter Module Upgrading XL6009 Module First we need toroid inductor from old SMPS filter, now make 25 turns of 0.7mm copper wire with two wires hence we got two coils of same turns as shown in figure.  Make Dual Coil inductor of 25 turns each After this we have to remove the old inductor from xl6009 module and then we got two PCB points at which we will connect our modified inductor. Remove the old Inductor from XL6009 module Now connect the wire of both coils of inductor as shown in figure, the first coil wires connect between +VCC input and other to SW i.e. switch pin of XL6009 IC. And other coil wire will connect between in...

How to use Hall Effect Sensor

How To Use Hall Effect Sensor Introduction : We will talk about hall sensors and their uses here I am using A3144 sensor this sensor has 3 pins VCC, GND, and OUTPUT it works on 5v dc its output is open collector so we get negative output when passes near magnet and this is digital sensor so you can use it directly with your projects it means no need of any comparator.  And this sensor is used in BLDC motor, Fridge door automatic light, magnet pole detection etc. Watch Practical experiment Video of this Sensor . Pinout of A3144 : Circuit diagram : Buy Electronics components at very cheap price :  Quartz Components 1) A3144 Hall Sensor 2) Leds 3) Resistors 4) 5v SMPS   5) Breadboard   6) Breadboard Jumper Wires 7) Crocodileclips
