This project introduces latching circuits and also other important concepts including different ways of triggering and resetting circuits. There are a number of possible outcomes for the circuit including electronic alarms, an electronic money box, a target game and a steady-hand game.
Different trigger inputs can be used
Different resets can be used
Space for up to 3 outputs
Battery-powered
Clear silkscreen text has been used to make construction simpler
Professional double-sided PCB pre-drilled with silkscreen and solder-resist
Q. What wire do you suggest I use for the course and handle?
A. Hi Jo, thank you for your question. We would suggest using something like this range of tinned copper wire. Wire gauge depending on the effect you want to achieve.
Q. What is the difference between the complete kit and the economy kit?
A. Hi Jo, thank you for your question. Both versions are supplied with empty PCB, 1 x PP3 battery clip, 1 x 2N5060G SCR or equivalent, 1 x 5mm red LED, 1 x 270 ohm resistor, 1 x 1k resistor, 1 x 10k resistor (all 0.25W), 1 x SPDT slide switch. Complete version has additional push-to-make switch and 6V PCB mounting buzzer.
