2.95 Switch-off delay
Circuit 201:
1 second switch-on delay
Setup information
Install the transistor, the diode, the four resistors and the electrolytic capacitor as shown in
Fig. 2.201
fol-
lowed by the four jumper wires and the jumper, which serve as switch (shown dashed). For your guidance,
we labelled the “switch” with Start. Check the placement on the board again and only then connect the
battery.
Components required:
1 x 2N3904 transistor,
1 x red LED, 2 x 1 k
Ω
resistors, 1 x 2.2 k
Ω
resistor, 1 x 10 k
Ω
resis-
tor, 1 x 100 μF electrolytic
capacitor, 1 x breadboard,
1 x 9V battery with clip
connector

1 second switch-on
delay
Experiment
Even if everything is wired correctly, nothing will happen at first. But when you activate the
Start
switch,
that is, when you insert the wire, the red LED will go on after a short delay. When the “switch” is opened
again, the red LED will continue to glow for a certain time. In our case this delay is about 1 second.
The circuit diagram for this experiment is shown in Chap. 3, Fig. 3.201.
