Basic Types of Diodes
https://www.electronics-lab.com/article-basic-diode-types/
In this article we will discuss about the various types of diodes, their working principle and their common uses. We will cover many common diode types, such as P-N junction diode, Zener diode, Schottky diode, LED and laser diodes, photo diode, varactor diode, avalanche diode, PIN diode etc. Feel free to leave a comment with […]
Driving LEDs
https://www.electronics-lab.com/driving-leds/
Emanuele @ dev.emcelettronica.com published an article on how to drive LEDs: The LEDs (Light Emitting Diode) are diodes whose basic characteristic is the ability to emit light when they are passed through a current that flows from P to N region. At each recombination between the charge carriers (electrons and holes), on PN junction region, a […]

Jeremy Morgan @ jeremymorgan.com writes: Today I’m going to show you how to make sort of a mini weather station with a Raspberry Pi. This is an ongoing project of mine that I’ve been tinkering with so I’ll share my learnings with you. It started with a project I wrote about last month, and is […]
PCB stencil jig

Gonazar’s PCB stencil jig: My solution to making a PCB stencil jig. I need this to do a run of ~30 small boards I got from DirtyPCB who also provided me with the stencil. However, I know that I’m going to be making more later with a new revision so I wanted a jig that […]
Can a current flow even up the hill?
https://www.electronics-lab.com/can-a-current-flow-even-up-the-hill/
Of course it can, even apeak. So if you connect leads from the bottom side via a PCB connector, you don´t have to worry about the current… Should you however be afraid of accidental fall off of the connector (it will certainly hold on if there are no vibrations, shocks or unpredictable tension to leads), […]
High Speed Ecosystem Support and Calamity Monitoring System
https://www.electronics-lab.com/high-speed-ecosystem-support-and-calamity-monitoring-system/
The innovation of equipment for calamity detection and monitoring are quite rampant. It is because of consecutive aggression of storms and earthquakes in different parts of the world. As to observe the different scenarios, these are not merely natural causes, there are some or most of it is manmade. A good example of it is […]

Rui Santos published a new project, an ESP8266 remote controlled sockets: In this project your’re going to build a web server with an ESP8266 that can control remotely any sockets (safely!). ESP8266 remote controlled sockets – [Link]
Arduino – How to use a Force Sensitive Resistor
https://www.electronics-lab.com/arduino-how-to-use-a-force-sensitive-resistor/
by codebender_cc @ instructables.com: In this tutorial you will learn how to use an FSR – Force Sensitive Resistor with Arduino to fade an LED. This sensor is a variable resistor just like a photocell or flex sensor. The resistance changes by applying pressure on it. Arduino – How to use a Force Sensitive Resistor – […]
