Online Electronic Shops in India

-
Electronics hobbyists are always in need of new parts , boards, components for their Do iT Yourself (DIY) projects. The industry is overwhelmed with various vendors, products,models etc:- Sometimes we find extremely difficult to purchase an exact part number of a product here in india. So hereby its an effort to list out some of the electronics shop websites  i found useful.
Most of them are very simple to use and provide good service. Payment methods vary from Online Cash payment to COD. Many websites provide free shipping if total purchase is greater than a particular amount (500 INR mostly). So it is good to check with all of them. 

Below is the list.. Will be updated as per i come across some new shops..

Bidirectional 3.3v 5v Level Shifter

Hi guys.. welcome to another simple DIY project... Lets make a level shifter, which will just shift a 5v data line to 3.3v or vice versa... Okie why we need such a shifter..  ? or what is this stuff actually.... ? We run around huge bunch of devices that run in various voltage levels.. for example Raspberry Pi runs in 3.3v, and its all GPIO I/O pins are at this level, even though we provide a 5v USB input. And so it is not tolerent to 5V input levels from another device or sensor modules connected to it over I/O pins using SPI, UART, i2C... whatever.... Another example is Arduino UNO which runs in 5V, normally is driving all its I/O at 5V levels.  So interfacing boards at different I/O voltage levels requires a level shifter. Simple voltage divider circuits can help for an extent.. but they dont provide low voltage  device protection or bidirectional shifting. Wait a minute ... Bidirectional... what is it ? Okie.. some communication protocols like i2C are bidirectional,

DIY Fixing a Laptop Battery

Hi Friends ,  DIY is always fun and awesome, and so welcome to another word of tech byte... This note is a collective scratchpad of troubleshoot methods and fixes i came across recently for fixing my laptop battery that went bad. Battery Model   : HP HS04  battery pack (4 cell , lithium ion, 14.6V , 2670 mAh, 41 Wh) Laptop  Model  : HP 15-ac635tu   (equivalent to HP G4 250 Notebook) The Symptoms Laptop Showed 1. Laptop charger goes on and off intermittently after charging up to more than 60% . The charger port LED goes between charging and not-charging frequently. 2. Once laptop is running from battery, charge percentage drops faster than normal, and once it reaches 23% , laptop shuts off immediately. On power in on again the charge percentage will be less than 15% and wont complete bootup to desktop. Faints instantly. Troubleshooting 1. Borrowed a laptop charger from my friend and tried 2 or 3 charge cycles. But still the issue     persisted.     This confirmed that

USB-UART console using old nokia DKU-5 datacable. (3.3v TTL)

Hi all.. lets do another beautiful DIY device... It will be a USB-UART dongle using Nokia Data Adapter DKU-5. What is it ??? A USB-UART dongle mimics a serial COM on PC. So... modern PCs lack DB-9 RS232 ports , but has plenty of USB ports. So there comes a lot of needs while you want to connect some boards ( Embedded linux boards, android TV boxes, Raspberry Pi, Beagle Board, FPGA kits, router/modem, HAM radio (ICOM/BAOFENG)  ) to your PC for low level debugging or programming. Since UART being the simplest of communications, all these board have a 3.3v or 5v TTL UART header to be hooked up... This header may consist of a Vcc,Tx,Rx,Gnd pins at one of above TTL voltages. So what we need to connect here is a UART- USB converter. Ebay can help you with cheap converters.. But it doesn't have the beauty of a DIY. So what i need ?? 1. Old DKU-5 nokia data adapter (CA-42 also works, but i had a DKU-5 only) 2. Some wires , soldering iron, strippers etc.. By luck CA-42
