How good it would be if you can switch on electrical appliances by just clapping your hands (the King style )!  The basic of that thought process is a simple clap circuit. Apparatus required : 1.IC 4017 2.Potentiometer 10k 3.IC LM 741 4.Led 5.Resistors -1 k,10 k ,22 k ,470k 6. 9 V battery 7.Microphone 8.Bread board 9. Wires as required. Procedure : 1.Connect the parts as shown in circuit diagram.(its just child's play) 2.Once the connections are over ,give the power supply and check the working of the circuit . Adjust the potentiometer to control the resistance. In the shown  case below ,instead of bread board we have done it with a PCB board which was fabricated at ACCET . The PCB design was facilitated with the use of chemicals(cupric chloride+HCl. It is none other than commercial nail polish remover) to etch the design of circuit on board. Ki cad software was used for the design. To know more on PCB design, Drop a mail to accetnews@gmail....
