Raspberry Pi 2, Model B

Raspberry Pi 2 Model B delivers 6 times the processing capacity of previous models. This second generation Raspberry Pi has an upgraded Broadcom BCM2836 processor, which is a powerful ARM Cortex-A7 based quad-core processor that runs at 900MHz. The board…

Solar power supply circuit

This solar power supply circuit project uses the 1.2v rechargeable battery and solar panel. The solar panel charges the battery when sunlight is bright enough to produce a voltage above 1.9v. The regulator transistor is designed to limit the output voltage…

How to use multiple solar panels?

Calculating watts Power[watt]=Voltage[volt] * Current[Ampere] if the panel is rated as 5v 200 mA then Power=1 watt Wiring multiple solar panels Parallel wiring This is required if your application need more power than rated. By connecting the positive terminal of…

How radio works?

How does radio works? Audio signals are transmitted by imposing lower audio frequencies on the high frequency carrier wave. In other words the audio signals are added to the carrier frequency. Its amplitude is modulated. At the receiving end, a…
