Here is the circuit diagram
when is use a lighter to burn the thermistor, it will generate a sound.
But it is not like the police car whistle
how to change to the high low sound?
Is it to change R5, R6, C2 to change its frequency?
below is the formula
R5 and/or C2 could be changed to alter the generated tone. Increasing their value will lower the tone frequency and vice versa.
You would need a second 555-based circuit to control the present one if you wanted an automatic alternating 2-tone sound.
As Alec stated, you could use another 555 astable operating at a low frequency to switch an additional capacitor in parallel with C2.
The added 555's operating frequency would be how rapidly you want to switch between frequencies (perhaps about 1Hz).
The circuit below will provide for switching between two capacitance values.
R6 and C2 are the present 555 resistor and capacitor.
C4 and M1 are added.
When M1's input is high, C4 is connected in parallel with C2, giving a lower siren output frequency.
M1 could also be an NPN BJT with an added series base resistor (10kΩ-100kΩ)
The sound of a police siren depends on which continent it is on. In North America it is not simply two frequencies alternating, instead it is a varying frequency slowly up then slowly down and over and over. We laugh when we hear foreign bee, boo, bee, boo, bee, boo, etc in a movie.
Yep feeding the 1st 555 into pin5 (variable control voltage) on the 2nd 555 and using potentiometers on the timing inputs lets you tweak the "NASTINESS" of the godawful output.
Oops.. And feed it into an LM386 amplifier chip to really get mean with it.
Had a quick look for (American) wailing siren 555 circuits. You might want to take a peek at:
‘555’ ASTABLE CIRCUITS - figure 21 is an American wailing siren and figure 20 is a Birtish wailing siren. Nuts and Volts is a reputable online electronics magazine that's been going for years so you can certainly trust the circuits and articles there.
Police siren using NE555 - this one appears a lot so I assume it works, whatever siren sound it outputs...
In the 555 Astable Circuits, the British siren does not produce wailing like the American one, instead it warbles between two frequencies.
Circuits Today.com is in India so their Police Siren warbles the two frequency bee, boo, bee, boo sound.
The Hee Haw Siren also makes the bee, boo, bee, boo sound.
