Ticking Bomb Sound Simulator



Sound similar to a loud clicking clock that is  usually attached to a timed bomb is produced by this circuit.  Use this circuit for fun, don’t use it for terror. The 200k pot adjust the frequency of the tick. By charging the 2u2, the circuit starts and when 0.65v is on the base of the NPN transistor, it starts to turn on. This will turn the 2N3906 on and the voltage on the collector rises. This pushes on the small charge the 2u2 into the base of the 2N3904 to turn it on more.

TICKING BOMB

When the negative end of the 2u2 is above 0.65v and now the electron starts to charge in the opposite direction until both transistors are fully turned on, this will continue. Less current is received by the 2N3904  into the base and it starts to turn off. Both transistors turn off very quickly and the cycle starts again.

Dynamic Microphone Pre-Amplifier

Dynamic microphone uses a moving coil around magnetic field to convert mechanical movement into electrical signal. The ordinary mini speaker is turned into a very sensitive microphone.  Although it looks like misusing the speaker as a microphone, but actually a real standard dynamic microphone  uses the same principle as this speaker.

We can use any NPN …

Ambulance (Hee-Haw) Siren

The circuit below consists of two multivibrators. The first multivibrator provides the speed of the change from “hee” to “haw” and operates at a low frequency. By allowing full voltage to appear at the bottom of the 220R and then a slightly lower voltage when LED is illuminated will modified the voltage to the tone …

Eco-Friendly Power-On Indication

This is a power on circuit that works temporarily only when the power is turned on, this  LED illuminates for a few seconds, then turns off again.   This design is eco-friendly since it consumes only a little power at the beginning of the power connection. Here is the schematic diagram of the circuit:

The circuit uses …
