The heart of this diy metal detector circuit is CS209A. The metal detector it is build with one coil of 100uH. CS209A has one oscillator wich forms an LC circuit, the inductance of the coil will change when it is near metal objects.
The metal detector circuit shown here must represent the limits of simplicity for a metal detector, yet the design works surprisingly well. It uses just one 40106 hex Schmitt inverter IC, a capacitor and a search coil – and of course the batteries. A lead from IC1b pin 4 needs to be attached to a medium wave radio aerial, or it should be wrapped around the radio. It can be used even like those hand held metal detectors.
