Well we don't have a specific requirement since we have to come up with a product that has something to do with security and if we make something that already exists, we have to improve it in some way. My group decided with preventing the car from being hot-wired and the whole car being stolen and we want to disable the power completely.Averagesupernova said:
"won't it stop working when it cuts off its own power?" Yeah, that's the idea. After a certain amount of time of the car alarm going off, I don't know how but maybe some kind of IC will trip some kind of switch— like a circuit breaker— that would have to be manually reset after the device system cuts the power.berkeman said:Welcome to PF!
But if your circuit is powered by the battery, won't it stop working when it cuts off its own power? And the battery circuit is a very high-current circuit, so it will take a monster relay to do the disconnect. Can you post the full text of the project assignment? Thanks.
Well, think this through a bit farther (you may have already done so)... Somehow the car owner needs to be able to reset the system so they can still drive their car after the failed theft attempt. But what will prevent the thief from using the same reset mechanism? If it's just a mechanical reset switch under the hood, the thief will be able to pop the hood and reset it just like the car owner wood.BoatingJoe said:
A car anti-theft device circuit schematic is a diagram that shows the electrical components and connections necessary for a car's anti-theft system to function. It outlines the circuitry of the system and helps to troubleshoot any issues that may arise.
The car anti-theft device circuit schematic works by using sensors and switches to detect any unauthorized access to the vehicle. When triggered, it sends a signal to the car's alarm system, immobilizing the engine and preventing the car from being started.
While it is possible to install a car anti-theft device circuit schematic yourself, it is recommended to have it done by a professional. This ensures that the system is installed correctly and functions properly to protect your vehicle.
Yes, there are different types of car anti-theft device circuit schematics, such as passive and active systems. Passive systems are always on and do not require any action from the driver, while active systems require the driver to arm and disarm the system.
If you are experiencing issues with your car anti-theft device circuit schematic, it is best to consult a professional. However, you can also check the wiring and connections to ensure they are secure and functioning properly. You can also refer to the schematic to identify any potential issues with specific components.
