Buzzer for use as a doorbell -  How often on average do you have to call members of your family each day to tell them that dinner is ready, it’s time to leave, and the like? The person you want is usually in a different room, such as the hobby room or bedroom.  A powerful buzzer in the room, combined with a pushbutton at the bottom of the stairs or in the kitchen, could be very handy in such situations__ Learning Electronics

Electronic Police Siren -  The sound produced imitates the rise and fall of an American police siren.  When first switched on the 10u capacitors is discharged and both transistors.   __ Designed by Ron J.

Emergency Siren Simulator -  This siren circuit simulates police, fire or other emergency sirens that produce an up and down wail.   __  Contact:  Charles Wenzel of Wenzel Associates, Inc.

Factory Siren -  This circuit produces a sound similar to a factory siren.  it makes use of a 555 timer IC used as an astable multivibrator of a center frequency of about 300Hz.  The frequency is controlled by the pin 5 of the IC .  When the supply is switched ON, the capacitor charges slowly and this alters the voltage at pin 5 of the IC hence __ Designed by Radioland.nt.au

Kojak Siren -  Here is a very simple Kojak siren that is built with two 555 timer ICs  and has 2 linear potentiometers that allows the control of sound speed and tone.  IC 2 produces a sound that can be adjusted with P2 and then drives a small speaker.  The amplitude of the signal is modulated by IC 1 with a low frequency signal.  The modulation __ Designed by Popescu Marian

Light Activated Siren -  This light activated siren could make an unknowing “victim” wet his pants when turning on the lights in a dark room.  This thing is LOUD!  Power into the module is 3W and produces a 123db sound level from its 50mm diameter diaphragm.  it wavers between 2kHZ and 4kHZ.  An LDR senses ambient light level and switches on __ Designed by Jim Keith

MEET WAILER-Siren Sound -  Our WAiLER has many applications; fill your party with wailing sounds!  Mount the WAiLER on your bicycle so you can make noise while you ride.  No need for mechanical rings.  Mount it as a front door bell.  Or mount it in your room as an alarm.  Place WAiLER anywhere you’d like to draw attention, to make a neighbor yell, or cause your friends to laugh.  The unique small design will allow you to mount it almost anywhere.  Operate it with 6V (combination of four series D, AAA or AA size batteries) , 9V battery, 12V car battery or via one of our batteries simulator kits.   __ Contact Kit from Elich Industrial Development, Corp

Multitone Siren -  This multitone siren is useful for burglar alarms, reverse horns, etc.  it produces five different audio tones and is much more ear-catching than a single-tone siren.  The circuit is built around popular...__ Electronics Projects for You

One IC 2 Tones Siren Double Tone Police Sound Single Tone Old AM bulance Sound -  This circuit is intended for children fun, and is suitable to be installed on bicycles, battery powered cars and motorcycles, but also in models and other games.  With SW1 positioned as shown in the circuit diagram it reproduces the typical dual tone sound of Police __ Contact Flavio Dellepiane, fladello @ tin.it

Police Car Siren -  This siren circuit simulates police, fire or other emergency sirens that produce an up and down wail.   __  Contact:  Charles Wenzel of Wenzel Associates, Inc.

Police Electronic Siren -  The sound produced imitates the rise and fall of an American police siren.  When first switched on the 10u capacitors is discharged and both transistors.   __ Designed by Ron J.

Powerful Security Siren-Transistors based -  This circuit was requested by several correspondents.  its purpose was to obtain more power than the siren circuit already available on this website (One-IC  two-tones Siren) and to avoid the use of IC s.  A complementary transistor pair (Q2 & Q3) is wired as a high efficiency oscillator, directly driving the loudspeaker.  Q1 ensures a full charge of C2 when power is applied to the circuit__ Learning Electronics

Powerful Siren -  Simple circuitry No ICs  12V Battery operation __ Contact Flavio Dellepiane, fladello @ tin.it

Screamer Siren -  This is a low-cost screamer circuit to add to our range of alarm modules.  it has been designed to protect your valuables on a 24 hour basis.   __ Contact Collin Mitchell

Screamer Siren-Light Controlled -  This circuit will produce an ear-piercing scream, depending on the amount of light being detected by the Light Dependent Resistor.  __ 555-Timer

Simple Circuit Siren -  This project is built on the third section of the PC board, identified by "SiREN" and "Project 5.  " You will notice the similarity between this circuit and the LED FLASHER circuit from project 2.  The only differences are the LED has been removed and the 22R resistor has been replaced by a minI speaker  __ Contact Colin Mitchelltalking @ tpg.com.au
