This is the operational amplifier version of th
e
electronic metronome from Project 3 (“Electroni
c
M
etronome”). Slide the switch to position B, an
d
connect the wires carefully - this project is mor
e
intricate than most of the others. When you complet
e
assembling the circuit, set the control to the 1
2
o’clock position, and slide the switch to position A t
o
turn on the power. You’ll hear a pip noise
f
rom th
e
speaker at
f
ixed intervals. Now gradually rotate th
e
control clockwise, and the beats come
f
aster.
Now observe the schematic. IC 1 and IC 2 are use

But you’ll notice that I
C
1 uses diodes to generate
short pulses and the control is used to modi
f
y th
e
s
p
eed of the
p
ulses. The transistor turns on eac
h
time a pulse is
g
enerated, and creates a sound
