Introduction
This project is a very simple electronic code lock; the circuit is simply a transistor
acting as a switch with a relay at its collector. When the transistor is on, the relay
is working and when it’s off it no current goes through it and it doesn’t work.

Description
3
The circuit is nothing but a simple transistor switch with a relay at its collector as
load. Five switches (S0 to S4) arranged in series with the current limiting resistor
R2 is connected across the base of the transistor and positive supply rail. Another
five switches (S5 to S9) arranged in parallel is connected across the base of the
transistor and ground. The transistor Q1 will be ON and relay will be activated only
if all the switches S0 to S4 are ON and S5 to S9 are OFF. Arrange these switches in
a shuffled manner on the panel and that it. The relay will be ON only if the
switches S0 to S9 are either OFF or ON in the correct combination. The device to
be controlled using the lock circuit can be connected through the relay terminals.
Transformer T1, bridge D1, capacitor C1 forms the power supply section of the
circuit. Diode D2 is a freewheeling diode. Resistor R1 ensures that the transistor
Q1 is OFF when there is no connection between its base and positive supply rail.

Conclusion
In summary this is a very basic electronic lock circuit using a transistor as a switch
to turn on the relay or off, it is very easy to make and cheap, this circuit can be
used as security device or to teach students on basic electronics.
