BURGLAR ALARM USING IC TIMER 555 556 ELECTRONIC DIAGRAM


BURGLAR ALARM USING IC TIMER 555/556 ELECTRONIC DIAGRAM

circuit diagram of burglar alarm using IC timer 555/556 is functioned as an alarm to prevent thief entering your house. The alarm would produce loud sound when a thin wire connecting resistor R1 with IC pin no 4 is broken. Thin fiber is used as the wire. The thinner the wire, the more responsive the alarm. This circuit needs 5-15V power supply, buzzer is used as a speaker. Here is the circuit schematic :

Parts list :


  •     Resistor R1 : 10k
  •     Resistor R2 : 68k
  •     Resistor R3 : 1k
  •     Polar capacitor C1 : 1uF/15 B
  •     Capacitor C2-C3 : 0.01uF
  •     IC Timer : NE555

Police Sirine Circuit with IC 555

The series of police sirens with 555 ic this is a series of sirens that utilizes two IC 555 as a pulse generator and producing shrill voice. 

Police Sirine Circuit with IC 555
Both ic 555 respectively build the astable multivibrator circuit and generate output signals with different frequencies. It is intended to be used as one of the high frequency generator or a screeching sound and the other as a regulator of the swing from last shrill voice. If we observe the working principle of this circuit is very similar to a series of modulation fm. Where the shrill sound signal likened to a high frequency signal from the oscillator circuit and control signal swing is the wail of the information signal or input signals that will transmit. This is consistent with the shape of the output signal associated with the loudspeaker, which has an output signal frequency changes in the form of regular meetings wave tenuous.


Actually a series of sirens could be simpler than if you use a 556 IC which is a dual multivibrator or equal to two pieces of IC 555. IC 556 has two multivibrator circuit menfaatkan so you can meet the workflow of this siren sound-producing circuit. Or you can also make it by using a combination of multiple transistors. And it could be you do remember the oscillator circuit can be easily made with transistors.

Appropriate image above then:
R1, R2, and C1 is a determinant of the frequency of the signal generated by IC1
R3, R4 and C3 is a determinant of the signal frequency whine
Signals generated by IC1 IC2 pin 5 connected to the control signals intended for the resulting shrieks
Screeching sound signal will swing to follow the control of the output signal IC1
You can do experiments in order to gain more understanding of police sirens this circuit by changing the value of some critical components such as the frequency of R1, R2, R3, R4, C1 and C3.

LED Flasher Circuit Using 555 Timer IC

This is a simple LED flasher project that uses a common 555 timer IC for its operation. It is configured as an astable mode which means that its output is a square wave oscillator. Two LEDs are connected to its output in such a way that when one LED is ON, the other LED will turn OFF. 

It uses only 10 simple parts that are easily available at any electronic shops. Capacitor C2 charges exponentially through resistors R1, R2 and the resistance of the trimpot. When C2 has charged to about 2/3 VCC it stops charging and it discharges to about 1/3 VCC through R2 and the trimpot resistance via pin 7. This is the standard operation of a 555 timer. When a Vcc of 5 V to 15 V DC is applied to the circuit, the LED will start to flash.
The frequency of the flashing can be changed by varying the resistance of the potentiometer or trimpot.Parts List The parts list of the simple LED project is as shown below.
