INTRODUCTION
This is a project on CLAP SWITCH which can switch on/off
any electrical circuit by the sound of a clap. The operation of
the circuit is simple. If we clap the lamp turns on and to
switch it off clap again. The condenser microphone picks up
the sound of your claps, coughs, and the sound of that book
knocked off the table. It produces a small electrical signal
which is amplified by the succeeding transistor stage. Two
transistors cross connected as a bi-stable multi vibrator
change state at each signal. One of these transistors drives a
heavier transistor which controls a lamp. This circuit can
switch on and off a light, a fan or a radio etc by the sound of
a clap.
This circuit is constructed using basic electronic components
like resistors, transistors, relay, capacitors. This circuit turns
‘ON’ light for the first clap. The light turns ON till the next
clap. For the next clap the light turns OFF. This circuit works
with (5-9) V voltage. This working of this circuit is based on
amplifying nature of the transistor, switching nature of
transistor, relay as an electronic switch. Basically, this is a
Sound operated switch.

WORKING :-
At first, the clap sound sensed by the
condenser mic.
The condenser mic converts the sound into
an electric pulse.
Then the electric pulse amplified by the
BC547 transistor.
After that, the electrical pulse fed to the
CLK pin of CD4017 IC.
For each high pulse at CLK pin the state of
the PIN 2 changes.
When the PIN 2 becomes HIGH, the second
transistor turns ON.
If the second transistor turns ON the Relay
also turns ON.
Now when the condenser sense the
second clap sound, the next high pulse
received at CLK PIN.
The PIN 2 changed the state (becomes
LOW), so the second transistor turns OFF.
So the Relay turns OFF and the load
connected with the relay also turns OFF.

ADVANTAGES
1. The primary application involves an elderly or mobility-
impaired person.
2. We can turn something (e.g. a lamp) on and off from any
location in the room (e.g. while lying in the bed) simply by
clapping our hands.
3. Low cost and reliable circuit.
4. Complete elimination of man power. 5. Energy efficient.
DISADVANTAGES
1. It is generally cumbersome to have to clap one’s hands to
turn something on or off and it is generally seen as simpler
for most use cases to use a traditional light switch.
2. Unless we use a filter in the circuit, it is not that
advantageous. So that circuit activates only for clap of
particular frequencies and then it becomes accurate.
APPLICATIONS
1. Clap activated switch device will serve well in different phono-
controlled applications.
2. Clap switch is generally used for a light, television, radio or
similar electronic device that the person will want to turn on/off
from bed.
3. This circuit functions on using the sound energy provided by
the clap which is converted into electrical energy by condenser
microphone. Using this converted electrical energy which is used
to turn on relay (an electronic switch).
4. The primary application involves an elderly or mobility-
impaired person.
5. The major advantage of a clap switch is that you can turn
something ( e.g. a lamp) on and off from any location in the room
(e.g. while lying in bed) simply by clapping your hands.
6. The major disadvantage is that it's generally cumbersome to
have to clap one's hands to turn something on or off and it's
generally seen as simpler for most use cases to use a traditional
light switch.
CONCLUSION
The clap activated switching device function properly by
responding to both hand claps at about three to four meter away
and finger tap sound at very close range, since both are low
frequency sounds and produce the same pulse wave features.
The resulting device is realizable, has good reliability and it’s
relatively inexpensive. Assemble the circuit on a general-purpose
PCB and enclose it in a suitable box. This circuit is very useful in
field of electronic circuits. By using some modification it area of
application can be extended in various fields. It can be used to
raised alarm in security system with a noise, and also used at the
place where silence needed.
RESULT
We constructed the circuit as per circuit diagram. And we
verified the clap switch circuit. i.e. when sound occurs near
by the circuit the led in the circuit glows and for the second
clap it is in off condition.
