This document is a project report on a laser-based door security system using a siren generator. It describes the system's components, which include a UM3561 integrated circuit, transistors, resistors, capacitors, LEDs, and a battery. The circuit uses a laser beam and light dependent resistor (LDR) to detect intruders. When the laser beam is blocked, the LDR resistance changes and triggers the alarm circuit to sound a siren using the UM3561 IC. The report provides the circuit diagram, descriptions of major components, advantages and applications of the system. It concludes that home security technology continues to advance while security remains an important concern.

INTRODUCTION
Security is a prime concern in our day-today life. Everyone wants to be as much
secure as possible. Technology develops day by day in the world & crime also
improves their technology to perform their operation. So technology of security
should be modern with time to protect the crime works.
In this project to make a door security system we have used phototransistor operated
switch & laser light to cover a large area.
Door guard is a device that can senses intrusion, providing an indication of possible
disturbance, thus providing security to the commercial and residential people.
If some intruder tries to open the door of your house, this circuit sounds an alarm to
alert you against the attempted intrusion.
In case of commercial security, little door guard popularly known as guard alarm
which provides audible or visual alarm from the detecting object itself.
When any person or object crossover the laser line the security alarm will ring-on also
the focus light will "on" to focus the entrance of unauthorized person.
This circuit diagram of a little door guard based on national semiconductor
UM3561integrated circuit, siren generator and a laser beam.
The circuit uses readily available, low-cost components. For compactness, an alkaline
9v battery is used for powering the unit. Input dc supply is further regulated to a
steady dc voltage of 5v by 3-pin regulator IC7805. Assemble the unit in the box and
mount the same on the door.
Now mount a constant source of light i.e., laser beam exactly aligned with the unit.
We know laser light goes through long distance without scattering effect. It is also
visible only at source & incident point, otherwise invisible.
These two properties help us to build up a modern security system, which may name
as “Laser Based Door Security System Using Siren Generator".

MAJOR COMPONENTS DESCRIPTION.
1. UM3561 IC.
Fig.1 IC UM3561 & Transistor BC548
UM3561 is a low-cost, low-power CMOS LSI designed for use in alarm and toy applications.
Since the integrated circuit includes oscillator and selector circuits, a compact sound module
can be constructed with only a few additional components. The UM3561 contains a
programmed mask ROM to simulate siren sound.
Absolute Maximum Ratings:
DC Supply Voltage .......................................... -0.3V to +5.0V
Input Voltage Range ........................................ Vss -0.3V to Vdd +0.3V
Operating Ambient Temperature .................... -10 C to +60 C
Storage Temperature ....................................... -55 C to +125 C
Features:
• Four sounds can be selected.
• Typical 3V operating voltage.
• A magnetic speaker can be driven by connecting an NPN transistor.
• Power on reset.
• 8-pin DIP package form.

2. LDR.
LDR means light dependent resistance also called a photoresistor or a cadmium
sulfide (CdS) cell is a light-controlled variable resistor.A photoresistor is made of a
high resistance semiconductor.
It is basically a photocell that works on the principle of photoconductivity.One of the
most commonly used symbol is shown in the figure below. The arrow indicates light
falling on it.
If LDR placed in darkness, the resistance of LDR increases and when light falls on it,
the resistance of LDR decreases and act as a conductor. Any LDR in the presence of
light and darkness changes its resistance is depends on the different types of LDR.
Fig 3. Light Dependent Resistor
TYPICAL CONSTRUCTION.
The snake like track shown above is the Cadmium Sulphide (CdS) film which also passes
through the sides. On the top and bottom metal film are connected to the terminal leads & the
sensitivity of a photo detector is the relationship between the light falling on the device and
the resulting output signal. Thus it is designed in such a way as to provide maximum possible
contact area with the two metal films, to provide free access to external light.

CIRCUIT DIAGRAM
Fig 4.circuit diagram-DOOR SECURITY
Working:
This circuit is based on LDR (Light Depended Resistor), a variable resistor in which
the resistance varies according to the light intensity falling on it. The LDR and resistor
form a potential divider network, which is the main part of our security alarm Circuit.
We have already discussed about how transistor acts as a switch. The voltage drop
across the LDR is used to drive the transistor switch. When the voltage drop is above
cut in voltage (0.6V), the transistor is turned ON. LDR has low resistance range, In
the presence of light the LDR has high resistance (M-ohms) and sense the light.
In our security alarm, a LASER light is allowed to fall on the LDR continuously (see
the project arrangement figure). Light from other sources should not be allowed to fall
on the LDR, so place the LDR in a box with a single hole to pass LASER.
12. Page | 12
In this situation, the resistance offered by LDR is too low, since the LASER light is
continuously allowed to fall on the LDR surface. Thus the voltage drop across the
LDR is also low [V=IR (Ohm’s law)] which is insufficient to turn on the transistor, so
the transistor remains in OFF state.
When a person (eg: thief) makes a block to the continuous flow of LASER beam, then
the light falling on the LDR gets blocked or interrupted. Thus its resistance increases
to a high value in the order (M-ohms) range. While resistance increases the voltage
drop also increases, when this voltage drop exceeds the cut in voltage of the Silicon
NPN transistor (BC547), it will turn ON.
Then current from Vcc starts flowing to ground via the IC UM3561 to speaker and
transistor, which makes the sound, the musical tone from the security alarm gives the
indication of some security failures.
Thus in this circuit we built a laser security alarm which uses a laser light and a laser
light detector circuit, so when any person or object crossover the laser line the security
alarm will ring & its gets activated when someone crosses it.

CONCLUSION
Home security is rapidly growing field and there are new & improved burglar alarms
popping up every day.
With rapid advancement of technology this field is turning out to be an area full of
scope and new changes can be made to make it more efficient. It has years to come
because security is of prime importance to one and all.
I am proud to express my delight as the project I embarked upon is successfully
finished in such a short span. The project gave us more confidence that we will be
able to put in practice, whatever the theoretical knowledge we gained during the
course of study till now.
It really persuades us to do more and more perhaps in better way in future.
I take this opportunity to thank everyone who contributed directly or indirectly for
successful completion of project.
