Resistors
R1 100
(Velleman part# SDAD102)
Various resistor values are supplied. They serve as current limi ters or as voltage div iders. Resistors do not have a polarity. Resistors values are indicated by means of coloured rings. The unit of resistance is called ’Ohm’. ( see colour code table in the package)

Capacitors
A capacitor is almost lik e a small battery, it can be charged using a power supply. Mostly used to stabilise or to filt er out unwanted voltages. The unit is Farad: practi c al v alues are in µF, nF or pF. The supplied capacitor is an Electrolytic capacitor of 10µF and has a polarity, the long lead = +

Required parts: 9V battery*, 1000 ohm resistor (brown black red ), red LED, push-button
How it works: As long as the push button is pressed, a closed ci rcuit is formed that makes the current flow and the LED lights up. Current flows from the (+) of the battery to the push-button, r esistor, (+) of the LED and via the (-) of the LED back to the battery .
Using a 1000ohm resistor the cur rent will be about
0.007A (7mA).
Calculation of the resistor:
resistor = battery voltage – LED voltage
resistor = 9V - 1,8V = 1000ohm

How it work s : The 2 transistors alternately c onduc t bec ause the capacitors are c har ged and discharged. The speed at which thi s happens depends on the capacitors (C1, C2) and the resistors (R1, R2). Use a higher capacitor and resistor value in order to extend the LED light ing time.
The LED on-time can be calculated: T = 0,693 x R1() x C1 (F) T = 0,693 x 100.000 x 0.00001 = 0,693sec.

Replace this normally closed circuit (WIRE) by a normally closed window or door switch; when e.g. the window is opened the contact within the window switch is interrupted, the security circuit is opened and the buzzer sounds.

How it works: A LED lights up when enough light hits the LDR. The LDR is a light sensitiv e resistor (Light Dependent Resistor), in dark conditions it has a high resistance, and in li ght conditions it s resi stanc e bec omes low. Across the LDR is a posit ive potential which is fed to the base of the transistor enabling it to switch. Resistor R2 creates a switching point which determines when the transistor starts to conduct. Resistor R1 limits the current that flows through the LDR.

How it works: The “START” butt on will light up the LED; it will remain on when the pushbutton is released. To switch off the LED, press the “STOP” button. T1 and T2 ar e in stat e of rest (OF F, no current). By pressing the “START ” but­ton a current flows via R4 through the LED. At the same time the base of T2 is pulled l ow (was high v ia R1). Since t he value of R3 i s much lower than R1 t he voltage on the base of T 2 drops m aking it conduct and via the collector of T2 and R2. T1 also start s to conduct. From this point on, both transistors ke ep each other in con­ducting state, even when the “STA RT” button i s released. Pressi ng the “STOP” butt on will end the current fl ow towards the ba se of T1 and it will stop conducting. The circuit is inter­rupted and T2 will also stop conducting. The LED will turn off.

How it work s : When pushing the push button shortly , the LED will turn on and aft er a while it will go out. By pushing the push button the capaci t or will quickly charge; when releasing the button the capacitor will release its stored energy via both transistors – both will start to conduct and the LED will light up. The current needed to make T2 conduct is
R1 10M
limited as T1 a nd T2 form a Darlington tran­sistor circuit. The time needed to discharge the capacitor is also determined by resistor R1. The smaller R1 the f aster the c apacitor is discharged and the LED switches off. When R1 is removed, the capacitor discharges solely via the base current of T1. Switching off is a lot slower now and takes ± 1 minut e.
The total gain of both transistors can be calculated: ß = ß(T1) x ß(T2)
In electronics, the Darlington circuit is a
structure consisting of two bipolar transistors connected in such a way that the current amplified by the first transistor is amplified further by the
second one. This configuration gives a
much higher current gain than each
transistor taken separately.

How it works: This circuit will make a LED switch on when i t becomes darker. Transistors T1 and T2 form a Schmitt­trigger circuit. The output of a Schmitt trigger is swit ched over at a certain volt­age at the input (the trigger level). The purpose here is the switch t he LED on or off completely . As long as there is no l ight on the LDR there is no base current to T1
R6 100K
and it will not conduc t. As long as this is the case, T2 will receive a base current via R2 and R3 and conducts; the LED will be on. When li ght shines on the LDR the voltage on the base of T 1 ri ses. T1 will start to conduct when this volt age is hi gher than the voltage ov er R5 + U
of T1. When this is the case, the base voltage of T2 drops and
be
T2 does not longer conduct and the LED goes off. Because of the change in flow through R5 when the LED switches off , the threshold level for which T2 will conduct again in darkness also changes.

How it works: The 2 sensor wires must be placed in a t ank at a certain distance (e.g. use a drink ing cup). F ill up the tank with a conducting liquid (e.g. water) until the level reaches both sensor wires. A small current will flow via R2 towards the base of T2. The base is protected against interfer ence with a resistor R1.
T1 & T2 are configured as a Darlington switch hence onl y a v er y sm all c ur r ent is needed to make T1 conduct and activ ate the alarm sound.

This cir c uit makes each LED light up short ly in succession. The c ircuit consists of 3 identical channels. It i s theoreti cally possible to ex pand; per LED a simi lar cir cuit is needed in serie s with the prev ious. The capacit or of the next channel is charged when the tr ansistor of the previous channel is not conducting. As long as a certain transistor is not conducting, the rele­vant LED will li ght up. Capaci tor C4 is added to t he ci rcui t to cr eate a cer tai n start i ng condi ­tion when connecting power and to ensure a good operation.
