POLICE SIREN USES FLASHER


Posted on Feb 5, 2014

Low-drain circuit operating from 1. 5-V cell uses National LM3909 flasher ICs to simulate `whooper` sounds of electronic sirens used on some city police cars and ambulances. Two flashers are required for generating required rapidly rising and falling modulating voltage. Transistor is connected as diode to force ramp generator of IC to have longer O
