This electronic brooch circuit uses the double time base integrated circuit 556 as the core. It changes the color automaticly and has a lots of colours. The circuit is as shown in figure 15-47.
The astable multivibrator is composed of the IC1-a(1/2 556) and R1,R2,C1, the oscillation frequency fc=1.44/(R1+2R2)C1, it is about 1Hz.
The multivibrator is composed of the IC1-b(1/2 556) and R4,R5,C4, the oscillation frequency is the same as the IC1-a's oscillation frequency, the difference between the them is only 0.0027Hz.
When IC1-a outputs the high electrical level, the LED1 issues the red light; if the IC1-b outputs the low electrical level, LED2 turns off, the whole glowing tube shows the red color.
