Ah, now I see that there is an smd pcb version, which is why the schematic shows BAV99

Somewhat confusing with the diodes I find.
These -5V are tapped at the driver stage for the mosfet
Somebody should write something that has already built this deviceComment

Are you sure that this is the same circuit? I cant see a second 14 pin IC on the board.
I flipped my diode and i got -5V without coil. But the detector still does not work.
I dont have negative voltage with coil and without mosfet.
I need to check the other chips.Comment

Are the transistors properly polarized?
to the Videos " As the bell rings the maypole spins "

I dont exactly know what you mean with polarized. I can measure 0,64kHz at the Mosfet Gate to GND, so i think they are ok.
I also know that the one for the speaker is ok because i can hear the sound.
My microcontroller sound is not the same as the one in the videos.
Problem is that i only have 1,5V negative voltage with connected coil.
I also get a steady tone which disappears when i touch the MOSFET. (without coil)
I also forgot to check the MOSFET before i soldered it in.Comment

Check your PCB track at MOSFET between drain and source, the space is very narrow, make sure it's not shorted. Even with coil connected, with MOSFET removed, you should get -5V.Comment
-
Also check diodes D4,D5 raising off one leg and checking with meter.
You must have -5V with everything connected.Comment

I saw that i dont always have 640Hz pulse.
I think thats why i had 1,5 Volts.
When i have pulse the everything looks fine (with coil connected, without mosfet)
Voltages are ok.
So i decided to put OP1 back in.
I get -8V negative and 11V positive voltage when i insert OP1 (NE5534) , i used a new one for this test.
I cant test the pulse with my DSO i think i got a faulty one, i can not adjust the picture and it doesnt work always.Comment

What is the voltage at the gate of the mosfet, what is the signal at the gate?
Personally, I do not like this driver stage for the gate, and it's oversizedComment

22,28 Volts at the Gate without MOSFET and 0.64kHzComment

Sorry to say, but it appears that you are going around in circles.
The project definitely works.

Here is discussion of Eddy' project. The entire thread is dedicated to surf pi, including microcontroller version.

The voltages are always different and sometimes the pic works and sometimes not without pulse.
I think i will put the pcb aside for now.
Thanks for the help.Comment

One more thing, there was a small error with the silkscreen for D2, so you have to assume that there could be other small discrepancies. I would check over the pcb, comparing it to the schematic. Make sure everything checks out OK.
Maybe I will try to make it myself, I think it is nice little project.Comment
