Audio Auto Fade

This circuit is design, in order to is heard the voice above the music. Useful for DJ, for small radio stations, for statements above the music, in shops etc. Also we can him use in applications that we want to handle some unit with our voice. As it has the circuit has become forecast for stereo music and monophonic microphone, but can be modified and be adapted in the needs or in the use that we want, him we use.... [read more]

Flashing Eyes

This circuit was purposely designed as a funny Halloween gadget. It should be placed to the rear of a badge or pin bearing a typical Halloween character image, e.g. a pumpkin, skull, black cat, witch, ghost etc. Two LEDs are fixed in place of the eyes of the character and will shine more or less brightly following the rhythm of the music or speech picked-up from surroundings by a small microphone. Two transistors provide the necessary amplification and drive the LEDs.... [read more]

Mini Alarm

This circuit, enclosed in a small plastic box, can be placed into a bag or handbag. A small magnet is placed close to the reed switch and connected to the hand or the clothes of the person carrying the bag by means of a tiny cord. If the bag is snatched abruptly, the magnet looses its contact with the reed switch, SW1 opens, the circuit starts oscillating and the loudspeaker emits a loud alarm sound. A complementary transistor-pair is wired as a high efficiency oscillator, directly driving a small loudspeaker. Low part-count and 3V battery supply allow a very compact construction.... [read more]

Loudspeaker Protection 2 for P.A output

The circuit protection output of power amplifiers and loudspeakers, dispose certain interesting elements, as the isolation of loudspeakers from the exit of amplifier, when is presented continuous voltage in his exit or when the temperature of heatsink, goes up excessively, providing simultaneously and time delay in the connection loudspeakers in the amplifier, so that we avoid pass in them, the known annoying noises from the charge - discharge of capacitors of supply....

NE555 Basic Monostable

Here the popular 555 timing IC, is wired as a monostable. The timing period is precise and equivalent to: 1.1 x R1 x C1... [read more]

Two Cmos Based 24-Hour Timers

A pair of multi-range timers offering periods of up to 24 hours and beyond. Both are essentially the same. The main difference is, that when the time runs out, Version 1 energizes the relay and Version 2 de-energizes it. The first uses less power while the timer is running; and the second uses less power after the timer stops. Pick the one that best suits your application.... [read more]
