Description :
Here
is the circuit diagram of a police siren based on NE55 timer IC. The
circuit uses two NE555 timers ICs and each of them are wired as astable
multivibrators.The circuit can be powered from anything between 6 to 15V
DC and is fairly loud.By connecting an additional power amplifier at
the output you can further increase the loudness.
IC1 is wired as a slow astable
multivibrator operating at around 20Hz @ 50% duty cycle and IC2 is wired
as fast astable multivibrator operating at around 600Hz.The output of
first astable mutivibrator is connected to the control voltage input
(pin5) of IC2. This makes the output of IC2 modulated by the output
frequency of IC1, giving a siren effect. In simple words, the output
frequency of IC2 is controlled by the output of IC1.

NOTES :
- The circuit can be assembled on a Perf board.
- I used 12V DC for powering the circuit.
- Instead of using two NE55 timer ICs, you can also use a single NE556 timer.
- NE556 is nothing but two NE555 ICs in one package.
- Refer the datasheets of NE555 and NE556 to have a clear idea.
- Speaker can be a 64ohm, 500mW one.
What is the use of diode in this circuit ? Can you plz give the link of the project report ?
ReplyDeleteDiode is Used to Maintain the Capacitor Charging and Discharging...
ReplyDeleteInitially When The Circuit WIll be Switched on..Then Capacitor Starts Charging and Charge Untill Its Potential Become equal or more than 12v
and After That Capacitor will Starts Discharging Through R2.
I don't Have Project Report....Sorry About That
If You Want Project Report ..If It is Vital for You Than Leave a Comment I would arrange it for You
