Connecting wires

Step 3: Placing the Transistor on Breadboard

The first step you need to do is place the transistor on one side of the breadboard, you have to place it on one side so there is enough space to add the rest of the components without trouble.

Step 4: Transistor Connections

Place the resistors of the value as shown in the image and do the connection. the black wire is the ground wire.

Step 5: Piezo Sensor Connections

The image shown in the step is an image of a piezo buzzer. In the library, the piezo sensor is not available so we use the piezo buzzer instead of the sensor.

Step 6: Power Rail Connection

The horizontal rails on the breadboard are called power rails. The power rails are not connected in a full-size breadboard. The red is the positive of the power supply and the black is the ground of the power supply.

Step 7: Place the IC NE555

Next, you need to do is place the IC NE555 on the other side of the breadboard, you have to place it on the other side so there is enough space to add the rest of the wire and components without trouble.

Step 8: Transistor and NE555 Connection

Connect the collector of the transistor to the input pin (Pin2) of the IC NE555 through a ceramic capacitor of value 100nF. The full connections are shown in the images.

Step 9: IC NE555 Power Connections

Connect the pin1 of the IC to the ground and the pin4 & pin8 to the positive rail of the power supply.

Step 10: The LED Connection

Connect the LED to the output pin (pin3) of the IC through a series resistor. The series resistor is for limiting the value of the current. Black is the ground wire.

Step 11: Buzzer Connection

Connect the buzzer to the output pin (pin 3) of the IC. The buzzer is also a polar component so connect the positive wire to the IC and negative to the ground.
