Simple Theremin with Inverter Gates
This simple but complete Theremin circuit is constructed using only two inverter chip plus one regulator IC. This Theremin circuit consist of five functional blocks: power supply regulator, hand controlled oscillator, null oscillator, mixer, and filter. Here is the complete schematic diagram: Voltage Regulator and Circuit Protector The power supply regulator consist of …[Read More]
Optical Theremin
Normally, Theremin works by detecting hand proximity using capacitive coupling method. A Theremin circuit shown in the schematic diagram below use different method to control the pitch. The oscillator of this tone generator, both the volume and frequency are controlled using LDRs, a light sensitive electronic component, so we can call this circuit an optical …[Read More]
Theremin circuit shown in this schematic diagram uses digital component, so we can call it a digital Theremin. This circuit employs logic inverter 74C04 or CD4069 hex inverter and CD4046 phase-locked-loop (PLL) IC. The CD4069 logic inverter is operated as a fixed-frequency oscillator with frequency around 100kHz. The CD4046 is operated as a variable frequency …[Read More]
Single Chip Theremin Circuit
This schematic diagram show a single chip Theremin circuit. Theremin is an electronic music instrument which sense hand movement to control the tones/frequency. This Theremin circuit uses two separate Colpitts LC oscillators to produce a beat frequency. The frequencies of two Colpitts LC oscillators are mixed and then rectified. This rectification demodulate the mixed signal …[Read More]
Electronic Metronome Emulates Mechanical Sound
It would be cool and elegant to a have mechanical sound character for our electronic metronome. This electronic metronome circuit will produce such sound, making your life more fun. Here is schematic diagram of the circuit: The metronome circuit consists of two 555 oscillators. The first oscillator is used to make high frequency tone, and …[Read More]
Electronic Metronome
Metronome is very important tool if you studying music playing. There are mechanical metronome device in the past, but today, electronic metronome is much more popular since it can be very simple, compact/small, reliable, and also has the most interesting feature: cheap. Here is one example of the electronic metronome schematic: Parts: C1 1 uF …[Read More]
