Photo Transistor Detector

All of the circuits on the PCB are configured so with the intention of as the photosensors are dark, the output of the 556 timers want stay peak. The issue delay period of each one 556 timer can be tainted by selecting as it should be combination ideals representing the R7/C2, R8/C3, R9/C4 and R10/C5 pairs.The LM339 input detection voltage levels for the circuit while publicized is settle on on 1/2 of the supply voltage. If a subordinate before elevated detection level voltage is wanted, the standards of resistors R5 and R6 can be there misused to suit.\hint as soon as power is functional to the circuit, the outputs of the 556 timers pray be piercing in place of 1 discharge delay period phase. (Until the timing capacitors hold charged to 2/3rds of the supply voltage.) in attendance are RESET inputs for apiece LM556. 

Photo Transistor Detector

These inputs complete not have terminal stop contacts but do have pads with holes to solder wires to if considered necessary. The RESET inputs might take place used to force the outputs of the 556 timers LOW until the timing capacitors have fully charged behind power is practical to the circuit but an outer timer would be required to accomplish this.This circuit does not require a regulated power supply and can carry on on supply voltages of up to 15 volts.

The most supply voltage meant for this circuit is 15 Volts.
