Hello Students and Hobbyist !

Welcome to CIRCUIT EASY schematic design. This site for Electronics Project, Hobbyist and Educationist. Get free Circuit Diagram and make your School Project yourself.

Before entering in to Electronic Projects or Circuits, You should know

How to Make Electronic Projects ?
   Preparing Experimental Board for demonstration you will need base board. You can use plywood 3mm thickness of desired size. Normally we use 8/12 Inches. Paste one side with florescent paper.
Prepare Circuits
   Look at the circuit diagram of your project, If having too many components then you have to use varo board also known as dot matrix board for connecting all small components using soldering iron. For few component you can directly place all components on ply and solder it by using pieces of wire.If you dont like soldering work, you can use Breadboard.
How to solder ?

   First make your soldering iron temperature at the level at which it melts solder easily otherwise it will result in dry or crack soldering. For good soldering, use pointed and clean Tip. Use best Solder wire and Soldering Flux. All surfaces to be soldered should also be cleaned. Apply Soldering paste or flux at joint. Melt solder on tip of the iron and place it on the joint for 2-3 seconds. Your component will get connected perfect.

Tools for Making Electronic Projects or Circuits ?

General Tools for getting started with all Electronic Projects work are :-

Soldering Iron 25 Watt, Screw Driver, Tweezer, Multimeter

General Items used mostly in all Electronic work :-

Flexible wire, Soldering Paste, Solder, P.C.B, Switch

Power Supply :-

   Generally all electronic items work on low DC Voltage from 1.5 to 12 Volt so correct power source will be required. For exhibition purpose or low power project you can use pencil battery (AA Size) with battery container for connection. You can also use single 9V battery with snap depending on your circuit. For multipurpose use or for your own experiment purpose, battery eliminator will be good choice.

   You will need electronic components based on circuit diagram : Identify circuit Symbols and buy components by its mention value. Example 100 K Resistance, BC548 Transistor etc.

Robot Kits

As you know our site is based on Simple Electronics Project Circuit. But to achieve higher performance, (Engineering Level Project) now day’s electronics kits uses Advance Digital Circuit for high quality output.

Advance Project requires a circuit which can be programmed for different work and can be capable of sensing from surroundings by using all types of sensors or module available in the market. i.e. (Remote Sensor, Keyboard,LCD Panel, Ultra sound sensor, RF Data, Sound, Gas Sensor, Memory chip reader/writer, humidity sensor etc.)

Among many I found two advance types of Kits which will be best for Hobby Circuit and also can be used in Robot.

This two Advance Controller Kits are PICAXE and ARDUINO which you can use in almost all Electronics Project. Among both arduino is more advance.

PICAXE Kits PICAXE microcontrollers are exciting, low-cost, re-programmable chips that can be used as low-cost ‘brains’ in many kinds of electronic project.
Among different PIC chips, I recommend PICAXE 28×1. PICAXE needs Serial port for programming which can be directly connected to computer on the other hand Arduino supports USB which is commonly used everywhere.

PICAXE is programmed using a simple BASIC language or via the Logicator flowcharting software. Windows Mac and Linux are all supported by the free BASIC software which can be downloaded from www.picaxe.com

Arduino Duemilanove is the latest USB Arduino board and is open-source microcontroller platform based on the ATmega328. It is easily programmed to perform a huge range of functions.

Benefits:
*Contains everything required to support the microcontroller
*User friendly USB connection (or can be powered with a AC-DC adapter or a battery)
*14 digital input/output pins (6 of these can be utilised as PWM outputs)
*6 analog inputs
*16 MHz crystal oscillator
*USB connection, and power jack for 9V supply
*ICSP header
*Reset button
