The project was originally intended as a present for my brothers dorm room, but a bad capacitor and the lack of a proper oscilloscope caused delays. It has not made it off the breadboard, and it probably will not until his next semester. The circuit contains.... -
A simple count-down LED timer that counts in minutes and seconds. Three buttons below the LED provide control of the unit, allowing you set the desired countdown time in minutes and seconds and a start/stop button. Completion of the countdown is indicated.... -
This Project is used to indicate the temperature and it is also used as controller. The system will get the temperature from the IC and it will display the temperature over the seven segment display and this temperature was compared with the value stored by.... -
This project is an High precision digital thermometer which indicates the temperature on the seven segment display. It has an resolution of 0.06deg. The 1 wire temperature sensor IC from Maxim semiconductors is used as the sensor. The DS18S20 Digital.... -
This circuits consist of two parts, the first part will transmit a signal, and the second part will detect that signal and trigger a relay.To adjust the circuit, hold down S1 while pointing LED1 at the receiver. Adjust R6 until you hear the relay click. You.... -
Inverters U1a and U1b are connected in a simple RC oscillator circuit. The frequency is determined by the values of R1, C1 C2 and the internal characteristics of the integrated circuit. As long as the circuit is oscillating, a positive dc voltage is.... -
This circuit is very basic to build. To open a lock which is connected to the K1 Load, you must press each momentary switch in the correct sequence. The sequence used in this circuit is S1, S2, S3 and finally S4. If any of the other switches are pressed the.... -
TCP based security system using the Ethernet module offered within the contest , an ATmega16L microcontroller , a PIR as a sensor and few other peripheral devices , which is specially targeted for homes and small business owners. I have used through for my.... -
A simple two tone water alarm that is light enough to be worn on the upper arm of a sleeper is described. It uses two LMC555 CMOS timer chips followed by a complimentary pair of emitter followers to drive an 8 ohm speaker. Power is supplied by a 9 volt.... -

This alarm circuit is based on two 555 timers. The alarm will sound your car horn if anyone opens the car door while the circuit is armed. The timers will allow you to leave the car without sounding the horn. To turn the circuit on S1 must be closed. To set.... -
his month I am making 3 different types of siren circuits based on the 555 timer. The first circuit simulates the siren of a British police car. It uses two 555 timers in the circuit. The 555 on the right is wired as an alarm tone generator and the second.... -
The circuit is small regulatorof temperature, us warns for the increase of temperature. The control of temperature becomes from the thermistor TH1, that is negative factor. His resistance is altered between in the 10K in temperature 25° C and roughly in the.... -
This circuit was formed to create a wireless alarm from a normal magnetic contact. By fixing the magnet to the leaf of a door, or swing of a drawer, it is easy to reveal the opening. To transmit the signal to a control anti-theft we modify the circuit of a.... -
This FM radio-controlled anti- theft alarm can be used with any vehicle having 6- to 12-volt DC supply system. The mini VHF, FM transmitter is fitted in the vehicle at night when it is parked in the car porch or car park. The receiver unit with CXA1019, a.... -
This circuit warns the user against fire accidents. It relies on the smoke that is produced in the event of a fire. When this smoke passes between a bulb and an LDR, the amount of light falling on the LDR decreases. This causes the resistance of LDR to.... -
