Audio to light modulator kit

A music-to-light modulator is a circuit which controls the intensity of one or more lights in response to an audio input. The kit is ideal to give the rhythm to any party or disco without much money. Very safe operation as it uses an opto-coupler as a coupling device between the audio and the mains controlling stages of the circuit.
Input trigger voltage: 2.3 - 2.5V (min)
Operating voltage: 110 or 250 VAC
Power handling: 220W @ 110V or 500W @ 250V
PCB size: 2.16" x 1.63" (To help in the decision to select an enclosure keep in mind that the heat sink used in the kit is about 1" tall.)
PLEASE NOTE, THIS KIT USES 120V MAINS ELECTRICITY AND SHOULD NOT BE ATTEMPTED BY ANYONE WITHOUT THE PROPER SKILL LEVEL. THIS SHOULD ALSO BE BUILT IN A SUITABLE PLASTIC ENCLOSURE.

Stereo Preamplifier - Tone Control Unit

This is a preamplifier and tone control unit
which will make a useful addition to any
of our power amplifier kits. It is extremely
easy to construct due to the use of a special IC,
the Philips TDA 1524A. This contains all the
circuitry required to provide up to 20 dB of
voltage gain, +/-15 dB of bass and treble
control, channel balance, and a switchable
loudness contour.

2W amplifier module LM380

This is a very simple amplifier built around the LM380 IC. It can deliver up to 2W into an 8 ohm speaker depending on the supply voltage. Instead of using a heatsink or heat fins the heat produced is dissipated through the center pins of the IC into the copper overlay left on the PCB. If you do require a sustained output of more than ½ watt, you will need to add a heatsink (not included). The IC solders directly to the PCB.
PCB size: 1.75in x 1.75in (45mm x 45mm)

Power output:
> 2 Watt max. (4-8 ohms, 20V)
> 1 Watt max. (4-8 ohms, 12V)
> 0.5 Watt RMS continuous

1W Stereo Amplifier Module

Uses 2 LM386N-1 for a stereo amplifier. Ideal for walkman and other battery powered items. 4V - 12V DC. Instructions PCB and components supplied.

This is a 1 watt per channel, stereo amplifier module Kit using two LM386N IC’s from National Semiconductor. It is basically two of our CPS17’s on a single PC board, with a dual gang pot. It will operate best from 6-12V DC and will work well from a battery since the quiescent current drain is only 10 mA. It requires no heat sinks for normal use. The input and output are both ground referenced. Maximum output will be obtained with a 12V power supply and 8 ohm speaker, however it is particularly suitable for driving headphones from a supply as low as 4V. Speakers are not supplied. They should be rated at 3W or over. PCB size 63mm x 40mm (2.5" x 1.5"). (CPS115)

Mini-Vox and Relay kit (Out of Stock)

The idea behind a VOX (voice activated switch) is that instead of the user pressing a switch to activate a relay, the sound of the users voice itself activates the relay. This gives hands-free control over devices like tape recorders. Power supply needed: 12VDC center positive 2.5mm jack. Electret microphone to pick up the sound is included. PCB size: 44mm x 48mm (1.73inch x 1.89inch).
