Making Your Own Dual-Tone Doorbell Circuit Diagram
Imagine opening the door to a gentle ding-dong sound that evokes the charm of classic electric bells. With our simple tutorial, you can create a simple yet attractive dual-tone doorbell circuit diagram that generates this lovely sound. Let’s plunge into the details of the circuit. Description of Dual-Tone Doorbell Circuit Diagram Our inventive dual-tone doorbell circuit diagram is assembled around the versatile IC CD40106, also known as a hex Schmitt-trigger inverter (referred to as U1). For precise triggering and to prevent any unintended activations, we’ve cleverly integrated an R-C filter…
Read MoreSelf Resetting LDR Alarm using Timer IC 555
One of the most common projects made in electronics is burglar alarm or security alarm. If your search over the internet there are dozen of burglar or security alarms but the problem with this circuit is, it does not have a self-resetting option i.e. continuously sounds till someone switches off the system. Thus, in order to solve this type of problem (self-resetting) we have come with the project Self Resetting LDR Alarm using Timer IC 555. This circuit detects the interruption of light and produces sound for a definite interval…
Read MoreAutomatic Fence Lighting with Alarm
Today, in this article we are going to teach you how to make an automatic fence lighting circuit with an alarm using op-amp 741 and timer IC 555. Fence lighting is used for security purposes and can be used at various places like door alarms, pathway alarms, etc. where monitoring is required. Various types of fence lighting circuits are already available over the internet but the problem with that circuits is they required high precision alignment. To overcome this problem, we designed a very sensitive automatic fence lighting circuit. We…
Read MoreDIY Li-Fi Speaker | How to Design
Here in the article I am going to show you “How to design DIY Li-Fi speaker” we are going to show you how to make Li-Fi speaker i.e. uses light to transfer data. This article consist of entire detail like design procedure, circuit diagram, and description. Introduction to Li-Fi (Light Fidelity) The term wireless has been gaining so much popularity in the recent years. Li-Fi is another block to growing platform. The term Li-Fi; Light Fidelity sounds somehow similar to Wi-Fi and they share a lot of common features. Both…
Read MoreChristmas Music and Decoration using Arduino
In this Christmas season I wanted to do some funny stuffs using arduino. Previously few years back I had made a project Christmas decoration and music using discrete components. Now I had come with funny easy and interesting project using arduino and few other easily available electronics components. The project posted here plays three different popular Christmas tone i.e. Jingle Bell Jingle Bell, wish you merry Christmas and Santa Claus is coming to town. The interest lies on the thing you have created with you owns. Definitely this project is…
Read MoreAlarm Circuit for Clocks
Here is an alarm circuits for clocks using IC 5387, 5316, LM8361 etc. (any IC giving an alarm and a 1Hz outputs). This circuit has the following advantages over most of other alarm circuits (especially alarm circuits based on IC 555): Working Principle of Alarm Circuit for Clocks The quiescent current is only 0.1 mA which is much less than the 10-15 mA consumed by 555 circuits. Hence the life of 9V battery is increased by above three times. The operation current is also very small. IC 555 based circuitry consumes…
Read MoreSound detector circuit using op-amp 741
The circuit diagram of the sound detector circuit using op-amp 741 is shown in figure 1. The heart of the circuit is op-amp 741 which is used in order to sense the vibrations of sound waves condenser microphones. Introduction of Sound detector circuit using op-amp 741 Sometimes due to lack of concentration and our ignorance, we are unable to hear anything around us. And, that could lead to unfortunate misfortunes which could have been avoided with appropriate precautions. This circuit called ‘Sound Detector’ is what detects vibrations of the sound waves…
Read MoreSound Operated Intruder Alarm with Flash
Sound Operated Intruder Alarm with extra features like a flashlight, circuit diagram, description with working principle, and parts list. Introduction to Sound Operated Intruder Alarm with Flash If you have already gone through the previous project Op-amp 741 Based Sound operated Light on our website, then for you this project is a transformation of that generalized project into a specialized intruder’s alarm project. Why should one invest much effort, time, and money to recreate a new circuit when a slight modification to the existing project works fine? This is the core…
Read MoreFire Alarm Using Thermistor and NE555
If we search for fire alarm circuits on the internet, we can find a long list of such circuits. Most of those circuits are quite expensive and also the components may not be easily available. So, here we have presented a simple and inexpensive project of ‘fire alarm using thermistor and NE555’. Where a thermistor is the main component and is used as a temperature sensor of the fire alarm. Talking about the working principle of a thermistor, it works in the same way a normal LDR would work i.e.…
