The metal detector circuit shown here must represent the limits of simplicity for a metal detector, yet the design works surprisingly well. It uses just one 40106 hex Schmitt inverter IC, a capacitor ...

[vonPongrac] stumbled upon this handy guide, a free eBook on 50 555 Circuits, which contains many cool project ideas, including a simple metal detector circuit.

Electronics and circuits How the metal detector was made Using the metal detector. The challenge Rough Science has a gold theme running through it, ...

Professional metal detectors are simple but require a bit of work to make. But you can build a pared-down handheld detector using a calculator, an AM/FM radio and some masking tape ...

Armed with metal detectors, curious explorers are finding historical objects every day. For example, Bob Podhrasky, COO, senior vice president, and director of engineering at metal detector ...

The heart of this diy metal detector circuit is the CS209A IC. The metal detector is built with one 100µH coil that has 40 mm in diameter and is made of 50 turns/0.4 mm wire. CS209A has one oscillator ...
