Hello friends! Welcome back to ElectroDuino. This blog is base on the UM3561 Siren Sound Generator IC Pinout, Working, and Parameters. Here we will discuss the Introduction to UM3561 IC, Pin Diagram, Working Principle of LM339 IC, Features, and its Applications.

Introduction

The UM3561 is one type of low-cost ROM (Read Only Memory) IC, that can produce different siren tones like Ambulance, Police, machine gun, and Fire brigade siren sound. This is an 8 pin low power IC, it has an inbuilt oscillator and tone selection pins. The UM3561 IC typical operating voltage is 3V and the Operating Current Idd is 150μA. The output current of this IC Io/p 3mA. This IC mainly designed for making toys and sirens.

Here we will learn step by step what is the working principle is going on Inside the UM3561 using a block diagram. Inside the IC, UM3561 IC has an oscillator circuit, which generates oscillations frequency, this frequency is controlled by the external resistor connected between the OSC 1(Pin 7) and OSC2 (Pin 8). This oscillation frequency will be moved to a control circuit. The working of the control circuit can be depending on the tone selection through the SEL 1 (Pin 6) and SEL 2 (Pin 1). Then the control circuit passes the signal to the address counter. Then the address counter passes the signal to the ROM. Finally, the tone pulses are generated, which will be available at the output pin (pin 3).
