  • Page 4 Children’ s electronic calendar 2019 LEDs, transistors and the piezo transducer Dear children, Running up to Christmas there are 24 electronic projects waiting for you. The focus is on transistors, light emitting diodes, a light sensor and a small speaker. You can build completely different things with these components. There is much to see, to hear and to experiment! And if you want, you can find the information you need here to learn more about how everything works.
  • Page 5 has a shorter wire (cathode = negative pole) and a longer wire (anode = positive pole). Inside you can see a slightly larger holder on the minus side, which carries the actual LED crystal. Once you have finished setting up, compare your Circuit diagrams construction with the assembly picture.
  • Page 6 Secret light signals Behind door number 2 you will find a push- button switch with four connection pins. Install it in the circuit so that it turns on the power as soon as you press the button. Two of the connections are connected inside. The inner workings of a push-button If you have installed the push button the wrong way around, the power will always be...
  • Page 7 Red and green Behind door number 3 you will find a green LED. Integrate them into the circuit as shown in the picture. Then both LEDs will shine together, the red one and the green one. And switch 1 can switch both on and off at the same time.
  • Page 8 Green turned off Open the 4th door and remove the cable with two plugs. If you install it along with the push button as shown in the picture, you can switch off the green LED by pressing the button. If the button is closed, you have built a by-pass for the electric current.
  • Page 9: Colour Selector

    Colour selector Voltage, resistance and current Behind door number 5 you will find needs more current than the red LED. If a second cable. Use it to convert your the red LED is now switched on, the LED You may already know that the battery is still new, it will have a circuit so that the red LED is not switched voltage drops to such an extent that the...
  • Page 10 Stored Energy On the sixth day on your calendar, you will A capacitor consists of two metal surfaces find new component behind the door: a with an insulating layer between them. capacitor. It is a small, light brown disc with Therefore, it is shown in the circuit diagram two wires.
  • Page 11 Coloured flashes of light The PTC fuse Behind the seventh door you’ll find another one will shine. Therefore, both LEDs in this cable. Now build your circuit and insert circuit had to be installed with different All your experiments are through because its resistance the red LED.
  • Page 12 Electrical noises Open the 8th door and discover a small also be clearly seen. One metal plate is a Piezoelectricity piezo speaker with two wires. The thin sheet. This then follows the insulating connecting wires are very thin and soft layer of a thin, grey disc.
  • Page 13 Braked current Behind the 9th door you will find a new Once again you can also use a wire or other resistor with the colours brown, black and metal object if the button is too loud. Once green. It has 1,000 kΩ (Kiloohm), so a 1 MΩ the contact is opened, however, no audible (Megaohm).
  • Page 14 Light flashes without battery Open the 10th door and remove The experiment has shown that the switch and hold your warm finger another resistor. It is 2.2 kΩ and has piezo speaker can not only convert against the membrane for a few three red coloured rings.
  • Page 15 Amplified current Transistors On the eleventh day you will receive an behaves like a switch. A small current important component of your calendar: through the basic connection causes a The transistor in your experiment smartphones and computers. the transistor. The transistor has three large current to be switched on through contains a silicon crystal.
  • Page 16 Amplified light flashes Behind the 12th door you will find a resistor Because the transistor conducts current in marked 330 kΩ (Orange, Orange, Yellow). only one direction, the green LED must Integrate it into this amplifier circuit using a ensure that current can also flow in the transistor.
  • Page 17: Touch Switch

    Touch switch The Darlington Circuit Behind door number 13, you will find a The speaker is again connected to the second transistor of type BC547. Along with collector of the transistors. And sometimes The connection of two transistors as shown in the circuit diagram is the first transistor, it should now provide you will hear strange sounds.
  • Page 18: The Light Sensor

    The light sensor Photodiode There is a yellow LED behind causes the other two LEDs to you have illuminated your photo door number 14. You could shine. Do not install the capacitor diode long enough, the red and Each diode consists of a semiconductor with install it in your circuit instead first.
  • Page 19 The motion detector Behind the 15th door you’ll find radiates infrared heat. When it hits Wait a while until the red and green another cable. You will be building the blackened sensor, it heats up a LEDs shine evenly and dimly. With using an infrared motion detector.
  • Page 20 One light amplifier Open door number 16 and take out a red LED lights up brighter when more transparent case from the front, you new component. At first glance, it looks light falls on the photo transistor. The will see a relatively large black area. like an LED in a clear housing, but in red LED goes out in complete darkness.
  • Page 21 Fototransistor/LED-Flipflop You’ll find another cable behind door number the paper out. But it only takes a short flash of light by lighting and shading. The resistance of 10 kΩ 17. Now you are going to build a circuit with an or the light of a lamp to switch it on again.
  • Page 22: Key Switch

    Key switch Behind door number 18 you will find This circuit is also called toggle flipflop. If another resistor with 1 MΩ (1 MOhm, you press the button ten times, the LED is on brown, black, green). With this you’ll be exactly five times during this time.
  • Page 23: Button Switch

    Button switch A vibration sensor Open the 19th door and remove the A circuit like this is called a Door number 20 hides a resistor made to vibrate, it generates a small resistor with 4.7 kΩ (yellow, violet, monostable flipflop. This means with 10 kΩ...
  • Page 24 A tone generator Behind door number 21 you’ll find a with 10 nF with the larger one with 100 capacitor with 10 nF (overprint 103). Now nF . The tone is now much deeper and more build an electronic sound generator. You like a rattling.
  • Page 25: Flashing Led

    Flashing LED Door 22 hides a larger capacitor with 22 This circuit can also be used as an alarm µF (22 microfarad). It is an electrolytic system. The schematic shows a dashed line capacitor (electrolytic capacitor) that has representing a cable that may or may not a positive pole and a negative pole.
  • Page 26 Automatic colour change Open door number 23 and remove the Like a normal LED, the RGB LED also needs very special LED in a clear housing. It a resistor in series. The piezo speaker is also actually contains three LED crystals in the connected for this test.
  • Page 27 Four-way flashing light Behind the 24th door you’ll find a resistor a Christmas LED lamp that only becomes with only 1 kΩ (brown, black, red). It is active in the dark. The lights look like used to achieve a larger LED current and sparkling stars and flickering candles.
