ABSTRACT

You must have seen the Disco Lights or DJ lights, which Turn ON and OFF
according to the beats of the music. These lights glow according to the length
and pitch (volume) of music beats, basically these are designed to pick the high
intensity sound like Bass sound. So these lights follow the high pitch beats in
music like drum beats, and Turn ON and OFF according to music pattern.
However the sensitivity of the circuit can be increased to pick the low notes too.

Now we are taking this to next level, i.e. Music Operated Dancing LEDs, in
which LEDs will flash according to music, just like Disco light, as discussed
above. This Musical LEDs circuit is based on transistor BC547. This circuit is
very simple and easy to build, it just requires few basic components and it
looks very cool.

OBJECTIVE
In this Simple LED Music Light Circuit, condenser mic
picks up the sound signals and converts them into voltage levels. These voltage
signals are further fed into R-C filter or HIGH PASS filter (R2 and
C1), to eliminate the noise from the sound.

Further a NPN transistor (Q1- BC547) is used to amplify the signals, from
the High Pass filter. Then finally these music signals are given to the array of
four transistors. Transistor in this array works as amplifier, and glows the four
LEDs according to the sound pattern.

This generates a very interesting sequence of dancing LEDs which follows the
beats as per their intensity or pitch. We can also add more LEDs with transistor
to make it cooler.

APPLICATIONS
 These type of Music operated dancing LEDs can be used in
Parties and Functions.

 These are also used in Music Shows and Concerts.

 Sound operated LEDs can also be used as security system.

COMPONENTS
 Condenser Mic

 5- NPN Transistor BC547

 Resistors- 10k (2), 1k (4), 1M (1)

 Ceramic Capacitor 100nF

 4 – LEDs

 9v Battery

 Breadboard and connecting wires

COMPONENTS EXPLANATION:

Condenser Mic:
It should be connected properly in the circuit, according to its polarity. To
determine the polarity of MIC one should look at mic terminals, the terminal
which have three soldering lines, is the negative terminal.

Transistor BC547:
It is a NPN transistor, which is used as a Amplifier here. NPN transistor acts as a
open switch when there is no voltage applied on its Base (B) and it acts as
closed switch when these is some voltage at its base. Generally 0.7 volt is
enough to get it fully conducted.
