SOUND ACTIVATED SWITCH – RELAY

This project is a sound-activated switch. DESCRIPTION Clap switch/Sound-activated switch designed around op-amp, flip-flop, and popular 555 IC. Switch avoids false triggering by using a 2-clap sound. Clapping sound is received by a microphone, the microphone changes the sound wave to an electrical wave which is further amplified by the op-amp. 555 timer IC acts…
