TOUCH ME NOT TOUCH ACTIVATED SWITCH Sharon Abraham 311
Possible to build Physical Circuit Parts learnt about in class Simple enough to model and understand Learn about real circuit development Get A in class Chose Touch Activated Switch Meets criteria Interesting concepts Criteria & Chosen Circuit
Circuit had both source and sink How to model human touch Removed one piece – used only sink Modeled as capacitor and pulse voltage source Problems / Changes
Human Body Capacitance • Sizable Capacitance Change • Environmental Factors
Oscillator 20 kHz Shmitt Triggers Rails – Voltage sources Analysis
High Resistance • Zero Current
Transistor – • Diode – Only positive voltage
Conclusion • Circuit works as was expected
Elevator buttons Pool sensor Touch activated lamp - Addition of Flip Flops Alarm System - Output load is a siren Uses Modifications
