Simple Radio Wave Alarm

This simple circuit is sure to have the police beating a path to your door- however, it has the added advantage of alerting you to their presence even before their footsteps fall on the doormat.

Simple Radio Wave Alarm Circuit Diagram :

Notes :

The circuit transmits on Medium Wave (this is the small problem with the police). IC1a, together with a sensor (try a 20cm x 20cm sheet of tin foil) oscillates at just over 1MHz. This is modulated by an audio frequency (a continuous beep) produced by IC1b. When a hand or a foot approaches the sensor, the frequency of the transmitter (IC1a) drops appreciably.
Suppose now that the circuit transmits at 1MHz. Suppose also that your radio is tuned to a frequency just below this. The 1MHz transmission will therefore not be heard by the radio. But bring a hand or a foot near to the sensor, and the transmitters frequency will drop, and a beep will be heard from the radio.
Attach the antenna to a multiplug adapter that is plugged into the mains, and you will find that the Medium Wave transmission radiates from every wire in your house. Now place a suitably tuned Medium Wave radio near some wires or a plug point in your house, and an early-warning system is set up.
Instead of using the sheet of tin foil as the sensor, you could use a doorknob, or burglar bars. Or you could use a pushbutton and series resistor (wired in series with the 33K resistor - the pushbutton would short it out) to decrease the frequency of IC1a, so activating the system by means of a pushbutton switch. In this case, the radio would be tuned to a frequency just below that of the transmitter.

2MHz Square Wave Generator Wiring diagram Schematic

2MHz Square Wave Generator Circuit Diagram. With the values shown the schema generates a 2-MHz symmetrical square wave. Changing capacitors Cl and C2 to 0.01 ÂµÂ¥ results in a frequency of 500 Hz. For the particular integrated diagram and power supply voltages (5.0 V), the reliable operating range of Rl = R2 is 2 k ohm to 4 k ohm.
