Digital Counter - 4029 and 4511

I just about the circuit you made. what kind of IC is 4029N & 4511N? Is it a diver/decoder? I tried to research on the datasheet but it cannot give exact specification...

Mail from JT from Philippines


4029 is a Preset Dec-hex, up-dn, Counter - and 4511 is a 7-Segment Display decoder. Learn more see ....

Word doc and exe attachments i don't open. send a jpeg photo or rtf or pdf or prepare your doc online Google Docs. please also tell me which page or circuit is this question about. any other doubts feel free to ask. Is it this ... Simple Digital Counter - doc00021

Halogen bulb lamp dimmer circuit

Can someone provide me a (simple) schematic for a dimmer that would control 12 VAC about 80 watts. This would be used to control a lamp with halogen bulbs.

SCADA System - Project Idea

Hello Sir, I am a student of Electronics and Instrumentation Branch from BP. I am doing my training at ..... where i have been assigned a project to implement SCADA System using Microcontroller.

Right now,i have a good knowledge of PSOC and AVR microcontrollers but since i am new to this technology,i am not getting how i should proceed for the project.i would be greatful to you if you can provide some information about the previous projects students have done in you organization regarding scada implementation.

A "SCADA System" may consist of a Human using a Computer with Special Software Overseeing a Process Control System made of many sensors, transmitters, autonomous controllers and actuators made of motor drives and heaters.

Some of these elements may send data to the computer which may Analyze and Indicate the condition of process or progress. The Human Operator can then fine tune the parameters of his system or study and record process cycles for quality and yield.

You discuss this with your mentor and then build a part of it, or implement a part of it in an existing system. A whole SCADA system is too big a project, but a simulated or demo software interface project can be made.

Try seaching at Google Scholar also study links below.

This will be posted to Elex Quna, comment on that post to continue. Any other doubt post as a comment, I will Answer it.

Using LEDs with Battery Power

What are LEDs ? How can we use them for Long Battery Life

Mail from AD


If LED flashes at 5-10 K Hz at even 50% Duty Cycle. It may save some power and improve life. So it is just an idea, it may not solve the problem. The idea was to improve battery life and give uniform light for annunciators. It may not be good for flashlights.
