neba3939 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Posted August 13, 2012 Hi everyone, i am trying to build my own clap switch.. i found this schematic on Google and i liked it. But i believe this schematics works only with a single clap.what do i have to do to make it double clap switch(clap- clap ON, clap clap OFF) thank you for your time.. Quote
Hero999 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Posted August 13, 2012 The transistors driving the LEDs form a divide by two counter which changes state on every clap. The counter is triggered by a pulse AC-coupled to the emitters via a 100nF capacitor. All you need to do is add another pair of transistors in the same divide by two counter configuration before the transistor which drives the relay.It would make it easier to explain if all of the components were numbered i.e. Tr1, Tr2, C1, C2 etc.Here are a couple of links to other websites showing a similar circuit.http://www.electronics-tutorials.ws/waveforms/bistable.htmlhttp://ch00ftech.com/2012/07/10/transistor-clock-part-2-prescaler/ Quote
mendimano Posted November 28, 2012 Report Posted November 28, 2012 Hi neba 3939, this is an intresting project, i dould like to try this project, is it posible from you to post the values of components, for diodes for example. Quote
Hero999 Posted November 28, 2012 Report Posted November 28, 2012 The unlabelled diodes aren't critical. You could use the 1N4001, 1N4148, 1N4448, 1N914, BAV20 etc. Quote
