higher the frequency will be of the tone emitted from the speaker. Transistor Q1 amplifies the strength of these pulses and sends them to the speaker.Procedure:Assemble the circuit and connect a 9-volt battery to the Battery Snap and you will hear an approximate 500Hz (55 cycles-per-second) tone from the speaker. If you put this circuit in a small box that can close out all the light, the speaker will be quiet. But as you try to open the box, the speaker will let out a high-pitched squeal, so we call it a screaming box. Try it in the refrigerator to catch late-night snackers. Have fun!Note: You may still hear a small buzz sound even when you have the photocell completely covered with your finger.Check Your Work HereR3R1Here’s What You’ll Need...RESISTORhole 8ahole 9b100 Ohm - (Brown, Black, Brown,Gold)R2hole 8ihole 19hhole 20b220 Ohm - (Red, Red, Brown, Gold)PHOTOCELLP1C1B1 Q1ehole 19a hole 20ahole 20h hole 2hDISC CAPACITORS 104 0.1uF a b c d e 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 a b c d e f g h i j 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 f g h i j REDBLACKred = hole 30e black = hole 30hc bNPN 2N3904Collector hole 9gBase hole 8gNPN TRANSISTORINTEGRATED CIRCUITEmitter hole 7gSPEAKERWIRESIC 1SCAN HERE TO SEE MORE ONLINE2.2K % (Red, Red, Red, Gold) 8 7 6 5 holes21e-18ehole 21b1234holes 21f - 18f SPKR 1hole 8bhole 9hW1 = 21c & 30b W2 = 9c & 30c W3 = 7j & 30jW4 = 21j & 30i W5 = 21d & 18g W6 = 19d & 20g51LAB 26Visit us online at www.ETronCircuit.com for more exciting projectsLab Observations
