Whistle Light Switch
The whistle light switch circuit is designed to provide a user-friendly method for controlling lighting through sound activation. The UM3763 IC is central to the operation, as it is engineered to respond specifically to a narrow band of sound frequencies. This selective frequency response ensures that the circuit is activated only by intentional sounds, reducing the likelihood of false triggering from background noise.
The piezo-ceramic buzzer is employed not only as a sound emitter but also as a sensor, capitalizing on its ability to convert acoustic energy into electrical signals. Upon detecting the specified frequency range, the UM3763 outputs a HIGH signal, effectively enabling the triac (T1). The triac acts as a switch, allowing the mains voltage to flow to the connected lighting fixture, thus controlling the illumination state.
Power supply considerations are critical for the circuit's reliability. The circuit is powered directly from the mains, which necessitates the inclusion of rectifier diodes (D1 and D2) to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC). The rectification process ensures that the voltage supplied to the UM3763 and other components is stable and within operational limits. The use of D3 as a voltage limiter is essential to protect the IC from over-voltage conditions, ensuring its longevity and consistent performance.
The LED indicator (D2) provides visual feedback regarding the circuit's status, illuminating when the circuit is active and extinguishing when idle. This feature enhances user interaction by clearly signaling whether the lighting system is engaged or not.
Overall, this whistle light switch circuit combines efficient sound detection, reliable power management, and clear user feedback, making it a practical solution for automated lighting control in various applications.With this whistle light switch you can turn on and off the lighting installation. The main part of this circuit is the UM3763 IC, produced by UMC. The piezo-ceramic buzzer is used here as a microphone and when it receives a tone frequency between 1. 2 kHz and 1. 8 kHz, the IC`s output will go HIGH. This means that the light will go ON if it was OFF, or go OFF it was ON. For light control the UM3763 triggers a triac through T1. The supply voltage is taken directly from the main power supply. D1 and D2 diodes are used as rectifiers, and D3 limits the voltage at 3. 9 V. D2 LED is used as an indicator of operating or idle state. 🔗 External reference
