Using IC 555 Burglar Alarm Circuit Diagram


Burglar alarm circuit or Theft alarm circuits are available in several forms. The above circuit was one of that kind using timer IC 555 as the main component. The circuit is very easy to construct and the cost of this circuit is also very less. So we can implement this circuit by our own and install this circuit in our home so that you can improve your knowledge and it also adds protection to your home.

Using IC 555 Burglar Alarm Circuit Diagram


The working of this circuit is very easy to understand.In the above circuit IC 555 was used as a Astable multivibrator.The Astable multivibrator puts out a continuous stream of rectangular pulses having a specified frequency. Thus by using the Astable multivibrator we can produce continuous frequency which was given as input to the speaker which makes an alarm sound in case of any disturbance in its trip wire. Pin diagram of IC 555 was given below for your better understanding.



Now we can see how we can change the Astable Multivibrator to a alarm circuit.In the above circuit the 4th pin (RESET pin) was connected to the ground using the thin strand of copper wire which is used as a trip in this circuit.The function of the 4th pin that it resets the timing interval when it was connected to the ground.

When the wire was connected the Multivibrator cant produce the rectangular pulses of constant frequency.When the copper strand is cut off then the 4th pin will have no connection with the ground.Therefore IC 555 produces the output pulse and which was given as input to the speaker thus it drives the speaker to give a noise which would scare the burglar away.Thus your homemade effective burglar circuit is readySourced by: Circuitsproject

Block diagram of AM transmitter and receiver with explanation

Block diagram of AM transmitter and receiver with explanation AM Transmitter : Transmitters that transmit AM signals are known as AM transmitters. These transmitters are used in medium wave (MW) and short wave (SW) frequency bands for AM broadcast. The MW band has frequencies between 550 KHz and 1650 KHz, and the SW band has frequencies ranging from 3 MHz to 30 MHz. The two types of AM transmitters that are used based on their transmitting powers are: ·          High Level ·          Low Level High level transmitters use high level modulation, and low level transmitters use low level modulation. The choice between the two modulation schemes depends on the transmitting power of the AM transmitter. In broadcast transmitters, where the transmitting power may be of the order of kilowatts, high level modulation is employed. In low power transmitters, where only a few watts of transmitting power are required , low...

Using the TLP250 Isolated MOSFET Driver Explanation and Example Circuits

I’ve already shown how to drive an N-channel MOSFET (or even an IGBT) in both high-side and low-side configurations in a multitude of ways. I’ve also explained the principles of driving the MOSFETs in these configurations. The dedicated drivers I’ve shown so far are the TC427 and IR2110. Some people have requested me to write up on MOSFET drive using the very popular TLP250. And I’ll explain that here. The TLP250, like any driver, has an input stage, an output stage and a power supply connection. What’s special about the TLP250 is that the TLP250 is an optically isolated driver, meaning that the input and output are “optically isolated”. The isolation is optical – the input stage is an LED and the receiving output stage is light sensitive (think “photodetector”). Before delving any further, let’s look at the pin configuration and the truth table. Fig. 1 - TLP250 Pin Configuration Fig. 2 - TLP250 Truth Table Fig. 1 clearly shows the input LED side and the receiving photodetector as well...
