Dark detector circuit using LDR and relay

Dark detector circuit using LDR and relay

Dark detector circuit using LDR and relay

This circuit uses, as a main component, an LDR (photoresistor). An LDR changes its resistance value depending on the amount of light it received. The more light means less resistance, the less light means more resistance.

Light Operated Relay Circuit using LDR / Photoresistor

Light Operated Relay Circuit using LDR / Photoresistor

Light Operated Relay Circuit using LDR.

The LDR varies its value (ohms) depending on the amount of light that illuminates it. The more light less resistance and less light more resistance, A potentiometer is used to control the light level that activate the relay

Light sensitive alarm using LDR

Light sensitive alarm using LDR

This light sensitive alarm is very simple and works using, as main components, a transistor, an LDR and a relay.

The alarm activates when the illumination level changes from almost total darkness to a moderately high illumination level. When this happens the alarm is locked and the alarm signal, be it a light or a sound, remains active.
