Project #388
OBJECTIVE: To build a night-sensitive police car sound.
As the photoresistor (RP) is exposed to light, its resistance is very low,
thereby connecting the gate of the SCR (Q3) to ground. This prevents
the SCR from conducting, connecting the alarm IC (U2) to the
batteries. The alarm IC remains off until the light is blocked, triggering
the SCR. If the light in the room is not bright, the IC may turn on.
Wave your hands over the photoresistor. Block the light with your hand
and the speaker (SP) sounds.
