Fire alarm circuit ABSTRACT Here is a simple fire alarm circuit based on a Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) and lamp pair for sensing the fire. The alarm works by sensing the smoke produced during fire. The circuit produces an audible alarm when the fire breaks out with smoke. When there is no smoke the light from the bulb will be directly falling on the LDR. The LDR resistance will be low and so the voltage across it (below 0.6V). The transistor will be OFF and nothing happens. When there is sufficient

6 Channel Auto Reverse Sequential Disco Running Lights [pic] From 230 V AC a DC supply of + 5 V is obtained. The power supply is given to the other blocks. The pulse generator at a particular frequency generates the clock pulses. The clock pulses are counted by a counter and gives output after every 10 pulses. The counter drives the transistors‚ which form the triac firing circuit. The transistors fire the triacs and they provide sufficient current to the load. Decorative

The schematic of an automatic cooler fan for audio amplifiers is given here. The circuit automatically switch ON the cooler fan whenever the temperature of the heat sink exceeds a preset level. This circuit will save a lot of energy because the cooler fan will be OFF when the amplifier is running on low volume. At low volume less heat will be dissipated and it will not trigger the cooler fan ON. The temperature is sensed using an NTC (negative temperature coefficient) thermistor R2. Junction of

Why are humans so obsessed with screens? Every day people are spending their time playing on their mobile phones‚ watching television and sitting in front of their computer. How larger the screen‚ how bigger the fun‚ phones are getting larger and larger and watching TV is no fun on a small television‚ and why else would you go to the cinema if it’s not because they have an enormous screen? In the first place‚ people want to escape from the reality for a moment‚ so than they can watch a movie
