ow you are going to produce a loud sound by
combining an operational amplifier with two
transistors. After you finish the wiring, set the switch
t
o position A to turn on the power. You hear a loud
sound from the speaker when you press the key.
A capacitor-resistor oscillator is the signal source for
this sound. The operational amplifier acts as an
inverting amplifier, and transistors Q2 and Q3 cause
the speaker to create the sound. This circuit is
called a single ended push-pull circuit (SEPP). You
have learned about push-pull circuits. Single ended
signifies that the circuit has only one output. Most
amplifiers have a second output that is connected to
the negative (–) side of the battery.
