This is the electronic equivalent of a mechanical music box. It is light activated and plays a range of tunes.
It is activated by light falling on the light dependent resistor (LDR) sensor. The kit can be placed anywhere that you want a tune to play when light falls on it.
You can make a cupboard music box or fit it into children's toys or promotional products. Alternatively you could replace the LDR with a conventional switch.

The assembled version is supplied with the M3481 Christmas songs IC only.
The board has a jumper to select playback of One/All Tunes and another for Autostop. An onboard switch provides manual tune selection.
