The most common light sensor type that s used in a light sensor circuit are photoresistors also known as a light dependent resistor ldr.

Light sensor circuit working operation.
Photoresistors are used to simply detect whether a light is on or off and compare relative light levels throughout a day.
Circuit design of light sensor as the photo resistor or ldr is a variable resistor a voltage divider network must be used to gets the analog equivalent output from it.
A 230v ac supply is provided to the load in this case the load is represented with a lamp.
Simple led light emitting diode circuit diagram.
Some time ago i was asked by my father to design a light sensor circuit for him he has some led s installed and a solar panel and a battery array which he then uses to power his garden lights.
A better light sensor switch pcb included.
The light sensor circuit is an electronic circuit designed using light sensor ldr darlington pair relay diode and resistors which are connected as shown in the light sensor circuit diagram.
The function of this light sensor was to turn on the l.
The circuit must provide sufficient current to light the led at the required brightness but must limit the current to prevent damaging the led.
