Principle and Working
This is a very simple electronic bell. Here the transistor TR-1 acts as a low frequency oscillator. Transistor TR1 also acts as a pre-amplifier. Oscillations generated from TR-1 is fed to the transistor TR2 which is a small audio amplifier. Preset Vr1 can be used to vary frequency, which will change the output tone of the bell.
