Simple Crystal Tester Circuit Diagram
Simple Crystal Tester Circuit Diagram. Most electronics project working with high frequency utilizes crystal in order to generate frequency as oscillator. It is used instead of coil. Coil can be checked with multi-meter if there is any fault, but checking of crystal completely is difficult. In order to solve this problem a simple project using few components is designed call crystal tester.
This circuit consist two NPN transistors, two diode with few passive component. The crystal under test is combining with transistor T1 which further work as oscillator. The combination of transistor T1, crystal under test and capacitors C1 and C2 is work as colpiitt oscillator. If the testing crystal is good then it works as oscillator with transistor T1. The output of oscillator is rectified and filtered by diode D1 and capacitor C2 respectively and given to base of transistor T2. The signal given to base conduct transistor which further glow the LED connected to the collector through resistor R3. If the testing crystal is faulty then LED1 does not glow.

Wireless mains voltage tester
You can use this to test whether the electricity is available in the line or not just attach a wire for the end of senser then you can get signals easily 1 feet is enough

noteUse 9V PP3 battery for powering the circuit.

Infra Red Remote Control Tester
This little circuit is invaluable for quick go/no-go testing of just about any remote control transmitting infra-red (IR) light. The tester is battery-powered, built from just a handful of commonly available and inexpensive parts, and fits in a compact enclosure. Schmitt trigger gate IC1f is used as a quasi-analogue amplifier with, unusually, an infra-red emitting diode (IRED) type LD274 acting as the sensor element. An R-C network, C1-R2, is used at the output of the gate because all IR remote controls transmit pulse bursts, and to prevent the output LED, D2, lighting constantly when day-light or another continuous source of IR light is detected.
Circuit diagram:


Cased project:
This creates a useful ‘quick test’ option: point the tester at direct daylight, and the indicator LED should light briefly. The sensitivity of the tester is such that IR light from remote control is detected at a distance of up to 50 cm. The circuit is designed for very low power consumption, drawing less than 1 mA from the battery when IR light is detected, and practically no current when no light is detected. Hence no on/off switch is required. The construction drawing shows how the tester may be ‘cased’ using a small ABS case from Conrad.
