Timer with alarm circuit

Published:2012/9/20 20:52:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Timer , alarm

This simple alarm timer circuit is made with 4060 which has an integrated oscillator with a good stability with a relatively wide frequency range. In the circuit diagram the oscillator frequency is set by the RC network that is connected at pins 9, 10 and 11.When the timer with alarm circuit is connected with S1, the pulse from R4 and C2 common point will reset the counter and will start the counting. When it reaches 14 bit, the 13 pin passes in state H and the auto oscillating buzzer is powered by the control transistor T1. The time interval is adjusted with P1. In order to get intervals ranging from one minute to two hours we should do a proper sizing of the oscillator components: 1 to 30 minutes: C1=220nF; P1=500KΩ 1 to 60 minutes: C1=470nf; P1=500KΩ 1 to 120 minutes: C1=470nF; P1=1MΩ The power supply of the timer alarm is from a 9V battery. D1 led does not does not affect the operation of the circuit and was included only to show that it works. So, R3 and D1 are optional components. S1 can be a tilt-sensitive switch with mercury if that will be used as a kitchen clock. With the buzzer on the power consumption of the timer alarm will be around 10 mA.

Warning Alarm circuit with CD4001

Published:2012/9/19 21:49:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Warning Alarm

Unorthodox warning alarm circuit presented here is infact a single chip based general purpose sounder, which produces a pulsed alert tone when its input receives a valid trigger signal. The circuit can be easily interfaced with a number of electronic gadgets and sensors and it requires only 12V dc supply input for proper working. A positive level input at trigger point (J1) activates the warning alarm unit.At the heart of the circuit is a popular quad – two input NOR gate IC CD4001, here wired as two independent gated astable multivibrators. Initially, in standby mode, T1 is off and the tone generators are inactive. When T1 is enabled by a proper +ve level trigger signal, pin 1 of CD4001 is pulled low through switching diode D1 first astable block enters in active mode and then activates the second astable block, which is configured as an acoustic alarm. A large piezo-ceramic element (acoustic transducer) at the output of (pin 11) CD4001 will give superb results.

Step Alarm Circuit

Published:2012/9/19 21:41:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Step Alarm

This Circuit can monitor the door steps or Staircase. When a person crosses the steps, the alarm sounds indicating the entry. The circuit is too sensitive and operates in day light.The circuit uses an NPN Darlington phototransistor L14F1. It senses the intensity of light through its exposed base and passes current in the collector- emitter path. When there is light, the phototransistor conducts and C1 charges up to its full voltage level. The alarm circuit uses a Monostable timer built around IC NE555. The triggering threshold of IC1 is adjusted using VR1. So normally the trigger pin 2 of IC1 remains high as set by VR1. When the shadow of the moving person masks the phototransistor, it turns off allowing C1 to discharge through R1. This momentarily makes the trigger pin 2 of IC1 low and the timing cycle starts. With the given values of R2 and C2, Buzzer sounds for two minutes. Step Alarm Circuit SettingThe circuit can be constructed on a small piece of Perf board. The circuit is designed to operate in day light. Switch off the circuit in the evening to avoid false alarm. If a lamp is provided opposite to the phototransistor on the opposite wall of staircase, the circuit can be used as day and night alarm. Align the lamp in the line – of – sight of Phototransistor. Adjust VR1 till the circuit becomes silent.? 8 Responses to “Step Alarm Circuit” Source: electroschematic.com   (View)

Tiny Door Guard with Alarm

Published:2012/9/19 21:23:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Tiny Door Guard , Alarm

This simple Door Chime protects the door and gives a loud Alarm tone when there is an attempt of theft. The circuit is too simple and battery operated. A Normally Closed (NC) reed switch and magnet is used to trigger the circuit. Alarm generator is the popular ROM IC UM 3561. This 8 pin IC has an inbuilt oscillator to generate 4 siren tones like, Ambulance siren, Police siren, Fire brigade siren and Gun sound. The different tones can be selected using its pin 6 connected to VCC, Ground or not connected. Frequency of oscillation is determined by the 220K resistor connected to the pins 7 and 8 of the IC.UM 3561 is the low power IC and its maximum voltage rating is 3 volts. So Zener diode ZD is used to give 3 volts supply to IC. Medium power NPN transistor T1 amplifies the output pulses from IC1 to a loud siren. Tiny Door Guard Circuit Magnet can be a small sized one that is to be fixed in the door using double sided adhesive tape. Fix the circuit board in the door frame. Fix Reed switch in the door frame, very close to the door. So that, when the door is closed, the magnet will pull the contacts of the reed switch to break supply to the IC. When the door opens, contacts of the reed switch make contact and IC gets power to give alarm.? 15 Responses to “Tiny Door Guard with Alarm” Source: electroschematic.com   (View)

Anti-bag-snatching alarm circuit

Published:2012/9/16 20:34:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: Anti-bag-snatching, 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.   (View)

AC Line Under/Over Voltage Alarm (March 29, 2009)

Published:2012/9/5 20:51:00 Author:Ecco | Keyword: AC Line , Under/Over Voltage, Alarm

Power lines, which deviate much beyond normal voltages can damage expensive electronic equipment. The circuit below sounds an alarm whenever the line voltage is higher or lower than normal. I set the alarm limits at about +-15% from standard levels. The circuit rectifies and filters the power line signal. I set the resistor values, so the DC voltage produced is close to 1% of the RMS value of the line. Thus, a 120vac line would yield about 1.2v DC. That voltage is fed to a pair of voltage comparators.
