    This document describes a fire alarm circuit that uses a light dependent resistor (LDR) and smoke to detect fires. When smoke passes between the LDR and a light bulb, it causes the LDR's resistance to increase. This triggers a 555 timer chip to generate a high voltage that activates a chip on board (COB) to produce an alarm sound, which is amplified. The circuit is intended to be placed in fire-prone areas and can help prevent fires by providing timely warnings. It uses common electronic components and its sensitivity can be adjusted using a preset variable resistor.

    FIRE ALARM

    AIM : TO DETECT SMOKE AND RAISE THE ALARM.

    CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION :
    WITH THE ONSET OF SUMMER THE CHANCES OF FIRE ACCIDENTS INCREASE.SUCH ALARMS CAN BE PREVENTED IF TIMELY ALARMS ARE AVAILABLE.THE CIRCUIT PRESENTED OVER HERE WARNS THE USER AGAINST SUCH FIRE ACCIDENTS.THE CIRCUIT SHOULD BE PLACED IN FIRE PRONE AREAS SUCH AS KITCHEN. EVERYONE IS AWARE THAT WHEN ANYTHING CATCHES FIRE , SMOKE IS PRODUCED.WHEN SMOKE PASSEN BETWEEN THW SMOKE AND THE LDR , THE AMOUNT OF LIGHT FALLING ON LDR DECREASES.THIS CAUSES THE RESISTANCE OF LDR TO INCREASE AND THE VOLTAGE AT PIN 2 OF IC 555 GOES BELOW 1/3 VCC.THUS IC 555 IS USED IN BISTABLE MODE.AS A RESULT VOLTAGE OF PIN 3 GOES HIGH.THIS HIGH VOLTAGE(9V) COMPLETES THE SUPPLY TO THE COB(CHIP ON BOARD).COB GENERATE THE ALARM SOUND WHICH IS AMPLIFIED BY IC 2 TDA 2002. THE OPTIMUM SENSITIVITY OFCIRCUIT DEPENDS ON THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE BULB AND THE LDR AS WELL AS SETTING PRESET VR1.RESET SWITCH S1 IS PROVIDED IN THE CIRCUIT TO SWITCH OFF THE ALARM AFTER FIRE HAS BEEN NOTICED BY THE USER.
