RK Education Transistor Astable Project

This project introduces astable circuits and also other important concepts including how resistance and capacitance affect timing circuits and the use of a transistor as a switch.

There are a number of possible outcomes for the circuit including electronic decorations, a police car/fire engine or advertising.

• Frequency of the astable circuit can be varied
• Different outputs can be used
• Battery-powered
• The PCB has space for up to five outputs on either side
• Professional double-sided PCB with silkscreen and solder-resist
• Empty PCBs are available separately, order code 70-9042
• Suitable for Key Stages 2, 3 & 4 (ages 7 to 16)
