Just as it is with all electronics and technology, advancements have revolutionized how they are used today. Electronics projects have become more sophisticated and parts have become much smaller. Bear in mind that this has not made electronics hobbies harder, they may just take a little longer to complete and may require more knowledge of electronics theories.
Below is a list of electronics projects to try
Anyone who can construct or buy a printed circuit board should be able to complete many of today's electronics hobby projects. There are quite a few PCB manufacturers that can help you on your way to creating your own PCBs. Find out more about printed circuit boards.
Here are a few fun projects to consider:
- The Mint Tin Ear phone Amplifier
Today, most people are listening to an iPod or a similar device. Many people using these devices experience poor sound quality. This is not a problem with the device, it is usually the headphones. Headphone speakers are tiny and usually have poor sound response. You can solve those problems without paying hundreds for top-shelf headphones or Grado headphone amps. A homemade amplifier that fits in your pocket can have cheap headphones delivering incredible sound quality. One of the most commonly used designs is the CMoy pocket amp that can fit into an everyday mint tin.
- Spy Bug FM Transmitter
Before we go any further, any and all unauthorized wire tapping is an illegal action and could be punished with fines or jail sentences. Now, imagine having a listening device that could broadcast 800 meters. Now you can with a small investment in parts and labor. This simple to construct device will enable you to catch sounds and voices up to 2500 ft away with an everyday FM receiver. Add a recording device to permanently capture your audio.
- guitar Effects Boxes
You can go to any music store a choose from hundreds of guitar effects boxes, but for those who want something different, you can construct your own. Practically any effect you can dream up - phase shift, distortion, delay, reverb, chorus, flange - can be built with just a few pieces of easily available hardware. They say that Jimi Hendrix stuffed the bodies of his Stratocasters with a bunch of homemade electronics. Just saying.
- LED Yo-Yo
Maybe you had a light-up Duncan Butterfly back in the 1970s and you don’t want to pay top-dollar on eBay just to relive a few childhood memories. Don’t worry you can make your own motion-activated LED yo-yo with just a few easy to find parts and, well, a yo-yo. In just about one hour, you could convert a hollow bodied yo-yo into a flashing, spinning, LED light show. Now, if you could just remember your old bag of tricks!
Schematics, how-to videos, and parts lists for these and many other projects are readily available on websites and electronics retailers. PCB manufacturer sites are a great source for PCB design services and software to help you customize your own projects. Find a printed circuit board manufacturer.
