1.0 INTRODUCTION
As an introduction, mini project is a part of syllabus in ELE 526 where need cooperation
among members in a group to think for how to solve about the tittles given. Our group has been
given tittles of “SCHMITT TRIGGER SWITCH”. In reality, Schmitt trigger is used when
interfacing an analogue signal to digital signal. One of its functions is to detect level of sensed.
When the input signal reached to a given level, it will switch from its low state to high state.
Transistor is a component used as a transistor switch and able to control high power devices such
as lamp, motors and digital electronic device. Two types of transistor are NPN and PNP which
both of them are different on how the current flow. For an ideal transistor switch, between
collector and emitter current resulting too zero means off state and on state while the resistance
reach zero and have maximum current flow.
In this project, it is required for the schmitt trigger circuit detect an input signal between
ranges of 4V to 8V.After an input signal have been detected, that value also can be used to
control light emitting diode (LED) through a switch. Switch in this circuit have been replace by a
NPN transistor. Then, this transistor was ON the light emitting diode (LEDs) as the value
detected decrease to 4V and OFF the LEDs when increase to 8V.

The circuit consist different type of component use to make sure the LED will light up when
the input voltage is 4 V. Led will turn off when the input voltage reach 8V. The component use
