ACKNOWLEDGEMENT:
I WOULD LIKE TO EXPRESS THE DEEPEST APPRECIATION TO MY HOD M/S MANJUSHA DESHMUKH AND THE PROJECT GUIDE WHO HAS THE ATTITUDE AND THE SUBSTANCE OF GENIUS;SHE CONTINUALLY AND CONVINCIGLY CONVEYED A SPIRITOF ADVENTURE IN REGARDS TO THIS PROJECT.WITHOUT HER GUIDANCE AND PERSISTENT HELP THIS WORK WOULDNT HAD WORN FRUITS. IN ADDITION,I WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE UNIVERSITY OF MUMBAI WHO GAVE US THE COURAGE THAT WE WOULD BE ABLE TO GET THROUGH THE MINIPROJECT.THIS SIMPLE PROJECT HAS HELPED US TO GAIN A DEEP KNOWLEDGE ABOUT HOW REALITY IS AND HOW TO HANDLE PROBLEMS DURING THE PROJECT THAT COME UPON. ALONG WITH I WOULD LIKE TO THANK THE PEOPLE IN THE GROUP WHO AS A TEAM HAS DONE THEIR PART AND HELPED US TO MAKE THIS PROJECT A SUCCESS STORY. THANK YOU.

INTRODUCTION : WHAT IS A GAME QUIZ LOCKOUT BUZZER?

A GAME QUIZ LOCKOUT BUZZER IS A CIRCUIT WHICH HAS A WIDE APPLICATION IN MANY GAME QUIZES.AND VARIOUS COMPETITIONS.THE CIRCUIT WHICH HAS BEEN MADE CONSISTS OF A NAND AND A NOT GATE THAT ACTS AS A LATCH.THE PROJECT CONSISTS OF TWO SWITCHES WHICH CAN BE EXTENDED TAO THE NUMBER OF SWITCHES DESIRED.WHEN THE USER PRESSES THE 1ST SWITCH ,THE INPUT GETS LATCHED AND AFTER THAT EVEN IF THE SECOND USER TRIES TO PRESS THE SWITCH THE OUTPUT DOESNT CHANGE.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION:
1). BATTERY: A 9V BATTERY HELPS TO POWER THE CIRCUIT. 2).PUSH TO MAKE SWITCH: IT ALLOWS THE ELECTRICITY TO FLOW IN WHEN PRESSED.WHEN RELEASED THE CIRCUIT IS BROKEN. 3).LED: AS AN OUTPUT.A PEIZO BUZZER CAN ALSO BE USED AS AN ALTERNATIVE. 4).TERMINAL BLOCK: SECURE CONNECTION WITH EXCELLENT INSULATION. 5). NAND AND NOT ICS. 6). RESISTORS.

HOW THE CIRCUIT WORKS?

THE BASIC BUZZER CIRCUIT CONSISTS OF 2 SWITCHES.WHEN ONE OF THE SWITCHES MAKES THE CONTACT A CURRENT IS PASSED.i.e. A LOGIC 1 IS GIVEN.AS A RESULT THE BULB GLOWS AS NAND CONVERTS THIS 1 TO 0 AND A NOT GATE IN SUCCESSION MAKES IT 1.THIS INFORMATION GETS LATCHED AS THE NAND GATES ARE CONNECTED IN A LATCH FASHION.EVEN IF THE 2ND SWITCH IS PRESSED THE CIRCUIT DOESNT RESPONDS UNLESS A RESET IS MADE.

LIMITATIONS:
THE BASIC CIRCUIT MADE REQUIRES A LARGE AMOUNT OF COMPONENTS AND CAN BE COSTLY IF IMPLEMENTED ON A LARGE SCALE.AN ALTERNATIVE CIRCUIT USING D F/F IS CHEAPER.

APPLICATIONS AND FUTURE SCOPE:

1).USED IN GAMES LIKE KBC AND FASTEST FINGER FIRST. 2). USED IN QUIZ CONTEST.
