Mosfet and capacitor switch

In the usual circuits, the capacitor is not included in. So why did i add a capacitor. if u have ever built a touch switch using only a mosfet, u do know that when u touch on the off wires the mosfet will gain power over time and light up again. Which can be somewhat annoying. But when u add a capacitor as seen above. When u apply a plus or add the wires temporarily or use a push switch( this switch should not lock when pressed.), u charge the capacitor and when u release the capacitor still has charge hence it is still providing power and working as a line which joins both the gate(G) and the source(S) of the mosfet. REMEMBER; When u try to touch using this method it will not work coz the capacitor will need alot or current and voltage for it to charge at a small amount of time which ur fingers can't provide. So when u press the push switch on the gate(G) Drain(D) part. This will discharge the capacitor and provide power to the gate(G) at the same time

Custom voltage regulator

It's cheep and easy to buy a voltage regulator than building your own. But just for curiosity , let's build a voltage regulator using Toshiba C5168 A Toshiba C5168 is commonly used in Audio Amplifier circuits. It's high breakdown voltage is 140 V and current of 10A . The 10A of current it can handle makes it ideal since we will be using voltage divider . If we have a voltage source of 22 dc voltage , and we are going to be driving a brushless motor of 12 v. We will need a regulated voltage of 12v from 22v and still providing enough current to the motor. Using this voltage divider formula ( V_out = V_in × (R₂ / (R₁ + R₂)), (Vout = 22 x(8k ohms / (6k ohms + 8k ohms)). This will give us theoretically 12v. When we connect voltage divider to an LED for testing , it will light up. But when connected to a brushless motor, nothing happends coz, the motor not only require 12v to run it also needs alot of current where the voltage divider cant provide due to ...

Blinking LED

This is a simple blinking led using a bc547 transistor. As it is in the diagram. You will need 1 transistor , 1 LED , Capacitor and a Resistor. This will work well on a 12v battery. Other types of batteries may not do the trick. The value of the capacitor will determine the blinking speeds.
