Project Timeline

Jan 2026 - Jan-2026

OVERVIEW

Implemented a comparator circuit using an LM358 operational amplifier to model thermostat control behavior. An adjustable reference voltage was created with a resistor divider network so that the output state would switch when the input voltage crossed the threshold. The circuit demonstrated basic analog control logic similar to that used in temperature regulation systems.
