Security Alarm Circuit

In StockA Security Alarm Circuit using the LM358 IC is a simple yet effective system designed to trigger an alarm when unauthorized access or movement is detected. The LM358, a dual operational amplifier (Op-Amp), is used as a comparator to detect voltage changes from sensors like LDRs, IR sensors, or switches, and then activate a buzzer or relay.
Description
Security systems often rely on detecting changes in the environment — such as light, motion, or contact — and triggering an alert. The LM358 is a dual op-amp IC that can be used to compare voltages from these sensors and output a HIGH or LOW signal based on the input condition.
In a typical light-based security alarm, an LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) is used to monitor ambient light. When someone passes by or blocks the light (e.g., in a doorway), the light level changes, causing a voltage difference across a voltage divider. The LM358 detects this change and activates a buzzer.
Applications:
1.Home Security Systems
1.Detect entry or light disturbance in doorways and windows.
2.Locker / Safe Alarms
1.Trigger alarm when the door is opened.
3.Garage or Entry Detection
1.Activates when someone passes through a beam.
4.Industrial Safety Systems
1.Detect light interruptions near machinery.
5.School or Lab Projects
1.Simple and educational project for understanding op-amps and sensors.

An Electronic Dice is a digital version of a traditional dice, which generates a random number (1 to 6) and displays it using LEDs or a 7-segment display. It uses components like a 555 timer, counter IC (like CD4017), or microcontrollers such as Arduino to simulate dice rolls electronically.

A Touch ON/OFF Switch is an electronic circuit that allows a device to be turned on or off by simply touching a sensor pad or wire, instead of using a mechanical switch. It works by detecting a small electrical signal from the human body (capacitive or resistive touch) and using that to toggle the output state.
These switches are commonly used in modern electronics, home automation, and DIY projects due to their durability, aesthetic appeal, and user-friendly operation.

An XOR (Exclusive OR) gate is a digital logic gate that outputs true (1) only when the number of true inputs is odd. For two inputs, the output is high when the inputs are different. XOR gates can be constructed using basic logic gates or directly with transistors (BJT or MOSFET). Using transistors, we can design compact, efficient circuits for custom digital logic applications.

A Bird Bell is a device designed to either attract, entertain, or repel birds, depending on its purpose and context. Traditionally, it is a small bell-shaped object made of metal, ceramic, or wood, and is usually hung in gardens, balconies, farms, or near bird feeders. Its name comes from its interaction with birds — it may ring when birds land on it, brush past it, or when the wind causes it to move.

A Battery High-Low Monitor is an electronic circuit or device that detects and indicates the voltage level of a battery — whether it’s too high (overcharged), normal, or too low (discharged). It helps protect batteries from overcharging or deep discharge, which can damage the battery or reduce its lifespan.
These monitors often use comparators, voltage dividers, LED indicators, or microcontrollers to track and display battery status in real time.
