2. ABSTARCT
Manual buzzers used for quiz competitions in schools and colleges create a lot of confusion in identifying the first respondent.
It determines the contestant who first presses the switch (S1 through S8) to answer a question and locks out the remaining three entries. Simultaneously, the buzzer and the corresponding led should be ‘on’ after a particular competitor has pressed the pushbutton.
The quiz table can be used for up to eight contestants. To design this we using IC 74Ls373 and few passive components.

6. 74LS373 unit
The 74LS373 consists of eight latches with 3-state outputs for bus organized system applications.
The flip-flops appear transparent to the data (data changes asynchronously) when Latch Enable (LE) is HIGH.
When LE is LOW, the data that meets the setup times is latched.
Data appears on the bus when the Output Enable (OE) is Low.
When OE is HIGH the bus output is in the high impedance state

9. BC547(npn transistor)
The BC547 transistor is an NPN Epitaxial Silicon Transistor.
The BC547 transistor is a general-purpose transistor in small plastic packages.
It is used in general-purpose switching and amplification BC847/BC547 series 45 V, 100 mA NPN general-purpose transistors.
Whenever base is high, then current starts flowing through base and emitter and after that only current will pass from collector to emitter

10. BUZZER
Piezo Buzzer
This buzzer is an piezo type audio signaling device, which has a piezo
element and a oscillating circuit inside which oscillates the piezo brass base
plate, which when given voltage difference produces sound of a predefined
frequency.
Features
These high reliability piezo buzzers are applicable to general electronics equipment.
Compact, pin terminal type Piezo buzzer with 4 KHz output.
Pin type terminal construction enables direct mounting onto printed circuit boards.
