Project #637

OBJECTIVE: To build a simple oscillator that beeps.

Adjustable Beeper

Turn the slide switch (S1) on and this simple oscillator circuit outputs
a beep from the speaker (SP). Change the frequency by adjusting the
adjustable resistor (RV).

Project #638

OBJECTIVE: To create the sound of a cat’s meow.

Electronic Meow

Turn off the slide switch (S1) and then press and release the press
switch (S2). You hear a “cat’s meow” from the speaker (SP). Now turn
the slide switch (S1) on and the sound is lower and lasts longer. Adjust
the adjustable resistor (RV) while the sound is fading away.

OBJECTIVE: To add the photoresistor to project #638.

Electronic Meow (II)

Project #639

Replace the 10K

Ω

resistor (R4) with the photoresistor (RP). Wave

your hand over photoresistor as you press down on the press switch
(S2).
