Simple Photo transistor Light Sensor Driver Circuit Diagram
- The computer can be programmed to monitor the output of the light t detector, and automatically arranges for the relevant lights to come when it gets dark.
- The sensitivity can be made adjustable for particular requirements by replacing R1 with a series connected 10 KQ preset and a 2709 resistor.
- This circuit provides a computer with information about the presence of daylight.
- The circuit is simple enough to enable ready construction on a piece of veroboard. Its output is TTL compatible, and logic low when the phototransistor detects light.
- Possible applications include automatically measuring the duration of the daylight period in an autonomous weather station, or in control systems for outside lighting around the home.
