Circuits Designed by Dave Johnson, P.E. :
  • 3v Low Battery Voltage Flasher
    Many battery powered devices use two AA alkaline cells.  Often you will not know when it is time to replace the batteries until the device powered by them actually stops operating.  The hobby circuit below can be connected to a 3v battery, to give you some warning when the battery is nearing its end of life.  It will flash a LED when the battery voltage drops to about 2.4 volts.  The electronic circuit draws only 1ua of current in standby mode and jumps to only 20ua when flashing, so it can safely...

3V Sweeping Siren Alarm -  The circuit uses a LTC1799 precision frequency generator from Linear Technology.  A 74HC14 hex Schmitt trigger from Texas Instruments is also used to perform several other functions.  One section is wired as a simple 7Hz square wave oscillator.… ….
