While Ericofons produced by Ericsson used miniature buzzers as their ringers North Electric introduced the electronic quot;Ericotone quot; ringer in its Ericofons. The Ericotone ringer used a simple 1-transistor oscillator circuit to produce a quot;chirping quot; sound to serve as the phone s ringer. This was one of the earliest applications of a transistor in a telephone as telephones with mechanical bell ringers and rotary dials did not need transistors.
