AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the difficulty of sourcing the UM3561 siren sound generator for a circuit project. Users have shared a potential supplier, Kelvin, which offers the component but requires a $20 minimum order, posing a challenge for those needing only the UM3561. There is also mention of unsuccessful searches on findchips.com for alternatives. Participants suggest collaborating with other students to meet the minimum order requirement. Overall, the search for a substitute or reliable source for the UM3561 continues.

Hey guys I am trying to build the circuit from the following link, but I have been unable to find the three siren sound generator UM3561 and I was wondering whether anyone knew of where i could purchase one or what substitute i could use. I have searched all over the internet with no luck.

Thanks

I found this on a front page of a Google search, don't know how reliable the site is though:

I saw them but there is one problem, they require a $20 minimum order but don't carry anything else I need for the project, but maybe i will call them and see what they say. Thanks
 
Hmmm. No match at findchips.com either. Hopefully the kelvin site works for you. Are there any other students building this project? Maybe you can all pool your order.
 

Thread '3-terminal device external modeling'

Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...

Thread 'Two capacitors, etc.'

suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
