Mobile Phone Detector Circuit using Op-Amp
Mobile Phone Detector is a Circuit that detects the presence of Mobile Phone up to a certain range like 1.5 meter . It detects the phone when an incoming call or outgoing call is made or when an SMS is sent or received or any GPRS used.
When the circuit detects an RF signal from an activated mobile phone, it gives an indication by switching ON an LED. The LED will start blinking and continues to blink until the incoming/outgoing signal stops. Mobile Phone detector can also be called as a Frequency Detector. Frequency Detector is simply a Current to Voltage Converter Circuit which detects the frequencies in between the range of about 800 MHz to 3GHz.
