DanBoris' Tech Blog - Score Sound

[RSS Bot]

The next couple of circuits are used to generate the sounds for the game. The first sound circuit is for the score sound. This sound is played whenever either player misses the ball.

 

 

When a player misses the ball the /MISS signal will go low which will trigger the 555 timer G4. When triggered the output of G4 will go high and stay high for 242ms at which point the output will return low. When the output of the timer is high the 32V signal will be allowed to pass through NAND C3 to the sound output. 32V comes from the vertical counter and has a constant frequency of 213Hz.
