Circuit Diagram of Anti-bag snatching alarm
Working principle of Anti-bag snatching alarm Here is a simple alarm circuit to thwart
snatching of your valuables while travelling. The circuit kept in the bag or suitcase sounds
a loud alarm, simulating a police horn, if someone attempts to snatch the bag or suit-case.
This will draw the attention of other passengers and the burglar can be caught red handed.
In the standby mode, the circuit is locked by a plug and socket arrangement (a mono plug
with shorted leads plugged into the mono-jack socket of the unit). When the burglar tries
to snatch the bag, the plug detaches from the unit’s socket to activate the alarm.
Working principle of Anti-bag snatching alarm The circuit is designed around op-amp
IC CA3140 (IC1), which is configured as a comparator. The non-inverting input (pin
3) of IC1 is kept at half the supply voltage (around 4.5V) by the potential divider
comprising resistors R2 and R3 of 100 kilo-ohms each. The inverting input (pin 2) of
IC1 is kept low through the shorted plug at the socket. As a result, the voltage at the non-
inverting input is higher than at the inverting input and the output of IC1 is high.
Working principle of Anti-bag snatching alarm The output from pin 6 of IC1 is fed to
trigger pin 2 of IC NE555 (IC2) via coupling capacitor C1 (0.0047 μF). IC2 is configured
as a monostable. Its trigger pin 2 is held high by resistor R4 (10 kilo-ohms). Normally,
the output of IC2 remains low and the alarm is off. Resistor R6, along with capacitor
C3 connected to reset pin 4 of IC2, prevents any false triggering. Resistor R5 (10 mega-
ohms), preset VR (10 mega- ohms) and capacitor C2 (4.7 μF, 16V) are timing
components.
Working principle of Anti-bag snatching alarm With these values, the output at pin 3 of
IC2 is about one minute, which can be increased by increasing either the value of capacitor
C2 or preset VR. When there is an attempt at snatching, the plug connected to the circuit
detaches. At that moment, the voltage at the inverting input of IC1 exceeds the voltage at
the non- inverting input and sub-sequently its output goes low. This sends a low pulse
to trigger pin 2 of IC2 to make its output pin 3 high. Consequently, the alarm circuit built
around IC UM3561 (IC3) gets the supply voltage at its pin 5. IC UM3561 is a complex
ROM with an inbuilt oscillator. Resistor R8 forms the oscillator component.
Working principle of Anti-bag snatching alarm Its output is fed to the base of single-
stage transistor amplifier BD139 (T1) through resistor R9 (1 kilo-ohm). The alarm tone
generated from IC3 is amplified by transistor T1. A loudspeaker is connected to the
4
collector of T1 to produce the alarm. The alarm can be put off if the plug is inserted into
the socket again. Transistor T1 requires a heat-sink.
Working principle of Anti-bag snatching alarm Resistor R7 (330 ohms) limits the
current to IC3 and zener diode ZD1 limits the supply voltage to IC3 to a safe level of 3.3
volts. Resistor R9 limits the cur- rent to the base of T1. The circuit can be easily
constructed on a Vero board or general-purpose PCB. Using a small case for housing the
circuit and 9V battery. The speaker should be small so as to make the gadget handy.
Connecting a thin plastic wire to the plug and securing it in hand or tie up somewhere else
so that when the bag is pulled, the plug detaches from the socket easily.
Circuit Instrument Description Operational Amplifier: The IC requires very low input
current as low as 10pA to change the output status, high or low. The IC has very fast
response and high speed of performance. The output stage of the IC uses bipolar
transistors and includes built in protection against damage from load terminal short
circuiting to either supply rails or to ground.
Circuit Instrument Description Timer IC (NE555): 555 is a very commonly used IC for
generating accurate timing pulses. It is an 8pin timer IC and has mainly two modes of
operation: monostable and a stable. In monostable mode time delay of the pulses can be
precisely controlled by an external resistor and a capacitor whereas in a stable mode the
frequency & duty cycle (the cycle of operation of a machine or other device which
operates intermittently rather than continuously.) are controlled by two external resistors
and a capacitor. 555 is very commonly used for generating time delay and pulses.
Circuit Instrument Description Variable resistor: A potentiometer informally a pot, is a
three-terminal resistor with a sliding or rotating contact that forms an adjustable voltage
divider. If only two terminals are used, one end and the wiper, it acts as a variable resistor
or rheostat.
Circuit Instrument Description Transistor (BD139): BD139 is epitaxial planar transistors
which are mounted in the SOT-32 plastic package. They are designed for audio amplifiers
and drivers utilizing complementary or quasi-complementary circuits.
Circuit Instrument Description Complex ROM with an inbuilt oscillator (UM3561): UM
3561 is an excellent Siren generator IC widely used in Toy applications and Surveillance
systems to generate different tones. It a ROM (Read Only Memory) IC which can be
operated in 2 pen cells and it functions normally down to 2.4 volts. Using only a few
components, it is very easy to construct a siren generator. The IC is designed to generate
sirens like Police siren, Ambulance siren, Fire brigade siren and Machine gun sound. The
IC has an inbuilt oscillator and tone selection pins. Only one external resistor and a speaker
driver transistor are sufficient to make a simple siren generator circuit.
Circuit Instrument Description Zener Diode: A Zener diode is a diode which allows
current to flow in the forward direction in the same manner as an ideal diode, but also
permits it to flow in the reverse direction when the voltage is above a certain value known
as the breakdown voltage. We use 3.3v Zener diode in this circuit.
Circuit Instrument Description Speaker: A loudspeaker (or loud-speaker or speaker) is an
electroacoustic transducer, a device which converts an electrical audio signal into a
corresponding sound.

3.4 CAREFULLY OBSERVED PRECAUTIONS
During the construction, the following precautions were observed;
The components were tested to ensure proper functioning before the construction.
It was ensured that the soldering iron was kept too long on the component during soldering
to avoid overheating that might damage the component.
Always turn the soldering to its stand when not in used. It was ensured that spacing
between every soldering was a little below 0.4cm to avoid short circuits.

sensor doesn't measure the amplitude of the vibration, but can very easily detect the
presence of vibration or movement of any kind in any direction. Vibration causes havoc
in many applications. From machine shafts and bearings to hard disk performance,
vibration causes machine damage, early replacement, low performance, and inflicts a
major hit on accuracy.
Using vibration analysis as a tool to determine the specific cause and location of
machinery problems can expedite repairs and minimize costs. Vibration sensors can
measure and analyze displacement, linear velocity, and acceleration. These parameters are
mathematically related and can be derived from a variety of sensors. Selection of a sensor
proportional to displacement, velocity, or acceleration depends on the frequencies of
interest and the signal levels involved. Three major factors differentiate vibration sensors:
the natural frequency, damping coefficient, and scale factor. The scale factor relates the
output to an acceleration input and is linked to sensitivity. Together, the natural frequency
and damping coefficient determine the accuracy
level of a vibration sensor. In a system consisting of a spring and attached mass, if you
were to pull the mass back away from equilibrium and release the mass, the mass would
vibrate forward (past the equilibrium) and backward until it came to rest. The friction that
brings the mass to rest is
defined by the damping coefficient, and the rate at which the mass vibrates forward and
backward is its natural frequency.
The two basic piezoelectric materials used in vibration sensors today are synthetic
piezoelectric ceramics and quartz. In a piezoelectric sensor or accelerometer, the sensing
element is a crystal that emits a charge when subjected to compression. The crystal is
bonded to a mass so that when it is subjected to a “g” force, the mass compresses the
crystal and a signal is emitted. The signal value is relative to the force imposed.
The crystals are attached between a center post and a seismic mass. A compression ring
or stud applies a pre-load force to the element assembly to ensure a rigid structure and
linear behavior. Under acceleration, the mass causes shear stress to the sensing crystals,
resulting in a proportional electrical output by the piezoelectric material. The output is
collected by electrodes and transmitted by lightweight lead wires to other circuitry or
directly to connectors.
This small acceleration signal can be amplified for acceleration measurements or
converted within the sensor into a velocity or displacement signal. Most piezoelectric
sensors used in vibration monitoring today contain internal amplifiers. An op amp can be
used to interface these sensors to an A/D converter, either discrete or on a microcontroller.
Be careful to choose a high- input-impedance op amp to minimize current.
Once recorded, vibration data can be analyzed for an immediate diagnosis or saved for
later or deeper evaluation, for example, to record trends and history involved in a
machine’s health, for asset protection in financial and retail environments, or to
differentiate between ambient vibration and real attacks in such applications as ATMs,
vending, and ticket machines. The sensing element can be housed to withstand whatever
environmental conditions exist. The rugged, solid-state construction of industrial
piezoelectric sensors enables them to operate under most harsh environmental conditions.
11
They are unaffected by dirt, oil, and most chemical atmospheres. They perform well over
a wide temperature range and resist damage due to severe shocks
Piezoceramics.
While both quartz and ceramics are adequate for successful vibration sensor design,
differences in their properties allow for design flexibility. For example, natural
piezoelectric quartz has lower charge sensitivity and exhibits a higher noise floor when
compared to the modern “tailored" piezoceramic materials. Nevertheless, most vibration
sensor manufacturers now use piezoceramic materials developed specifically for sensor
applications. Special formulations yield optimized characteristics to provide accurate data
in extreme operating environments. The exceptionally high output sensitivity of
piezoceramic material allows the design of sensors with increased frequency response
when compared to quartz.
Piezoceramic vibration sensors can be used in shock measurements (explosions and failure
tests), high-frequency measurements, and slower low-frequency vibration measurements.
This is shown by their higher than average natural frequency. However, this sensor
typically has outputs in the millivolt range and requires a high-input-impedance, low-
noise detector to interpret voltages from its piezoelectric crystal.
Another important application is vibration energy harvesting. This converts otherwise
wasted energy from mechanical vibrations into useable electrical energy. The Midé
Volture vibration energy harvester (Figure 1), for example, uses normally brittle
piezoelectric materials and incorporates a piezoelectric transducer packaging technology.
The Volture packages piezoelectric materials in a protective skin with pre-attached
electrical leads and no soldered wires. It features a low profile, can be used in harsh
environments, is available in multiple sizes to match numerous applications, and
integrates directly with COTS products. Applications include health monitoring network
sensors, condition-based maintenance sensors, wireless HVAC sensors, mobile asset
tracking, tire pressure and oil and gas sensors, air, land and sea vehicle sensors, and battery
and hard-wired power replacements [9].

electric current into illumination (or light). Area of the LED is usually less than 1 and
many integrated optical components may be used in designing its radiation pattern. It has
the major advantage of low manufacturing cost and renders longer life than the laser diode.
A light emitting diode consists of two principal elements of semiconductor. They are
positively charged P-type holes and negatively charged N-type electrons. In general, it
can be specified as a certain specific range of wavelengths in the electromagnetic
spectrum. The selection of emission of colour from the LED is fairly limited due to the
nature of semiconductor used in the manufacture. Commonly available colours of LED
are red, green, blue, yellow, amber and white. The light from red, blue and green colours
can be easily combined to produce white light with limited brightness. The working
voltage of red, green, amber and yellow colours is around 1.8 volts. The actual range of
working voltage of a light emitting diode can be determined by the breakdown voltage of
semiconductor material involve in the construction of LED. The colour of the light
emitted in LED is determined by the semiconductor materials that form the diode’s PN
junction. It is due to the differences in the energy gap band structure of semiconductor
materials and so different number of photons is emitted with varying frequencies.
However, the wavelength of light depends on the band gap of the semiconductor materials
at the junction and the intensity of light depends on the amount of power or energy applied
through the diode. The output wavelength can be maintained by using compound
semiconductors, so that required colour can be observed, providing the output within the
visible range. The purpose of the LEDs in this project is to provide a visual signal when
there is metal detection. The LEDs will be used in conjunction with the buzzer for the
production of output signal. The LEDs are used in this project to provide visual signals to
users when the device is in operation. Also, it is there to back up the device should the
buzzer malfunction still making the detector useful for the purpose it was assembled for.
The LEDs are being used to aid people who cannot properly hear; making it easy for them
to also use the device [10].
3.6.4 CAPACITOR
A capacitor, is a passive two-terminal electrical component that stores potential energy in
an electric field. The effect of a capacitor is known as capacitance. While some
capacitance exists between any two electrical conductors in proximity in a circuit, a
capacitor is a component designed to add capacitance to a circuit. The capacitor was
originally known as a condenser or compensator.
The physical form and construction of practical capacitors vary widely and many capacitor
types are in common use. Most capacitors contain at least two electrical conductors often
in the form of metallic plates or surfaces separated by a dielectric medium. A conductor
may be a foil, thin film, sintered bead of metal, or an electrolyte. The nonconducting
dielectric acts to increase the capacitor’s charge capacity. Materials commonly used as
dielectrics include glass, ceramic, plastic film, paper, mica, and oxide layers. Capacitors
are widely used as parts of electrical circuits in many common electrical devices. Unlike
a resistor, an ideal capacitor does not dissipate energy.
When two conductors experience a potential difference, for example, when a capacitor is
attached across a battery, an electric field develops across the dielectric, causing a net
positive charge to collect on one plate and net negative charge to collect on the other plate.
13
No current actually flows through the dielectric, however, there is a flow of charge through
the source circuit. If the condition is maintained sufficiently long, the current through the
source circuit ceases. However, if a time-varying voltage is applied across the leads of the
capacitor, the source experiences an ongoing current due to the charging and discharging
cycles of the capacitor. Capacitance is defined as the ratio of the electric charge on each
conductor to the potential difference between them. The unit of capacitance in the
International System of Units (SI) is the farad (F), defined as one coulomb per volt (1
C/V). Capacitance values of typical capacitors for use in general electronics range from
about 1 picofarad (pF) (10−12 F) to about 1 millifarad (mF) (10−3 F).
The capacitance of a capacitor is proportional to the surface area of the plates (conductors)
and inversely related to the gap between them. In practice, the dielectric between the plates
passes a small amount of leakage current. It has an electric field strength limit, known as
the breakdown voltage. The conductors and leads introduce an undesired inductance and
resistance.
Capacitors are widely used in electronic circuits for blocking direct current while allowing
alternating current to pass. In analog filter networks, they smooth the output of power
supplies. In resonant circuits they tune radios to particular frequencies. In electric power
transmission systems, they stabilize voltage and power flow. The property of energy
storage in capacitors was exploited as dynamic memory in early digital computers [11].
2.3.6 RESISTOR
A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical
resistance as a circuit element. In electronic circuits, resistors are used to reduce current
flow, adjust signal levels, to divide voltages, bias active elements, and terminate
transmission lines, among other uses. High-power resistors that can dissipate many watts
of electrical power as heat, may be used as part of motor controls, in power distribution
systems, or as test loads for generators. Fixed resistors have resistances that only change
slightly with temperature, time or operating voltage. Variable resistors can be used to
adjust circuit elements (such as a volume control or a lamp dimmer), or as sensing devices
for heat, light, humidity, force, or chemical activity. Resistors are common elements of
electrical networks and electronic circuits and are ubiquitous in electronic equipment.
Practical resistors as discrete components can be composed of various compounds and
forms. Resistors are also implemented within integrated circuits.
The electrical function of a resistor is specified by its resistance: common commercial
resistors are manufactured over a range of more than nine orders of magnitude. The
nominal value of the resistance falls within the manufacturing tolerance, indicated on the
component [12].
2.3.7 BUZZER
A buzzer is a device which makes a buzzing or beeping noise. There are several kinds; the
most basic is a piezoelectric buzzer, which is just a flat piece of piezoelectric material with
two electrodes. This type of buzzer requires some kind of oscillator (or something more
complicated like a microcontroller) to drive it—if you apply a DC voltage you will just
get a click. They are used in places where you need something that emits an audible tone,
but don’t care about high fidelity sound reproduction, like microwave ovens, smoke
14
alarms, and electronic toys. They are cheap and can be very loud without using very much
power. They are also very thin, so they can be used in flat objects like “singing” greeting
cards. A buzzer is an audio signaling device. Buzzers are of different types depending on
its design. A buzzer may be mechanical, electromechanical, magnetic, electromagnetic,
electro-acoustic or piezoelectric. Buzzers are used in timing circuits, alarm clocks or in
conjunction with sensors to alert the user of an ongoing activity. Buzzers operate on a
variety of voltages depending on the model. Also, depending on the model, the sound
level buzzers differ. The most common sizes for sound levels are 80dB, 85dB, 90dB and
95dB. In this project, a passive buzzer is required for audio signaling. An active buzzer is
being used because the magnetic field of the search coil varies upon metal detection and
active buzzers require an AC signals to operate. An active buzzer requires an AC signal
to make noise, just like an electromagnetic speaker; a changing input signal produces the
sound instead of producing the sound automatically. This makes passive buzzer the
suitable choice for this project. Also, the active buzzer will serve as a back up to the device
in case the LEDs malfunction despite they function simultaneously. The active buzzer is
employed to enable visually impaired to use the device with ease [13].

4.1.4 VIBRATION SENSOR TEST
The vibration sensor is used in different ways to sense mechanical vibrations to activate
alarms and other surveillance systems and a variety of vibration detection projects.
The vibration sensor has two electrical contacts, which are not connected in idle condition.
When an external force is applied due to movement or vibration, the sensor’s contacts
close. When the force is removed, the sensor terminal returns back to open contacts. The
internal spring closes the contacts during vibration which triggers the circuit connected to
it. The sensor is made up of a small spring mechanism, which makes the contacts on when
a vibration force is applied above a certain threshold level. A resistance of more than 10
m ohm insulates two pins coming out of the sensor. When a vibrating force is applied on
the switch, the spring inside the switch vibrates and makes a momentary short circuit
between the two terminals. The terminals of the vibration sensor have no polarity but one
pin is thick. With these knowledges about the vibration sensor, the test for the vibration
sensor was done by the application of a vibrating force to the alarm system, the about of
the LED and buzzer tells that the vibration sensor is ok [14].
17
4.5.1 WHEN THE DEVICE IS IN NORMAL STATE
At the time when there is no subjection to motion capable of triggering, the two terminals
in the vibration sensor are separated from each other, which means the gate current to the
switching device transistor is open, opening power supply connected to the Speaker/siren.
At this time, the output will be 0V and the buzzer be silent.
18
4.6 HARDWARE IMPLEMENTATION
The design circuit was placed into small plastic casing after the design circuit was tested
also by using Multisim v7. The circuit was design on a PCB, the designed circuit was
printed on the PCB using lead. After all the components are soldered, the circuit was then
placed inside the small casing box.
19
Table 4.1 Expected and Measured Values of Components.
EXPECTED VALUES MEASURED VALUES
4.8 CHALLENGES
During the test and construction, it is identified that some of the values of the components
not corresponding to their original values, the vibration sensor will not quick to response
as expected hence the vibration force been applied must be high. And also, the sound of
the buzzer is not loud enough as expected.

CHAPTER FIVE
5.1 CONCLUSION
The construction of this Snatch Alarm System was a gradual process from gathering of
information on the different form of sensors on the market and studying the different type
of sensor on their input parameters. It is to be noted that the efficiency of this project
depends on the ability to respond to sudden snatch of a bag including the alarm system.
Thus, the device could deliver constant respond for a calculated level of vibration of shake.
In view of the inconsistence and unreliable public security and high rate of thief snatch
coupled with the high loss of properties, the snatch alarm is found to offer a better control
of thief snatch. It is noisily capable to follow, harmless, and cost effective. It is also a
preferred security backup to a suit cases, bags and other load hand frees careers because
of its portability. Thus, having small casing, light in weight. In addition, the life span of
the battery and other components is prolonged.
5.2 RECOMMENDATION
Although the objective of this project has been achieved, the snatch alarm cannot be used
in small purses because of its size. In addition, when the snatch alarm is set on, any shake
that reach its attenuation level will trigger it though may not be attempt to snatch.
Therefore, for improvement on this project, further research can include:
Selecting a sensor which may be able to identifier activities capable of triggering and sort
the action to allow attenuation.
Designing the power source system which may be capable of self-charging, giving
uninterrupted power supply through an additional Automatic Voltage Regulator.
Select a reset mechanism with a timer to influence the beeping of the buzzer.
Selecting a buzzer which may give a reliable and preferable sound alert, considering the
fact of the buzzer being put in an enclosed state which can have effect on the range of the
sound.
