This circuit demonstrates how
toy laser guns can be designed.
Laser Flasher
When you press the press switch (S2), the integrated circuit should
start sounding a very loud laser gun sound. The red LED will ash
simulating a burst of laser light. You can shoot long repeating laser
burst, or short zaps by tapping the press switch.
Flash & Flicker
Build the circuit shown on the left, which uses the Space War integrated
circuit.
Set the switch on and the speaker makes exciting sounds. The output
of the IC can control lights, speakers, and other low power devices.
You may replace the speaker (SP) with the 2.5V lamp (L1), and the
bulb will icker. You can also use the LED (D1) in place of the lamp
(position it with the “+” side towards the 6-snap).
