As its specified property ldr act as the light and dark sensor. When light falls on ldr the resistance of it goes very high about in mega ohm.

Ldr wiring diagram. When transistor q1 is on by conducting even small current on base the output of transistor q2 is low off. Ldr circuit diagram at day when light falls on ldr then conductivity increased and current flows between supply to the base of the transistor and then transistor q1 will on. Light dependent resistor circuit diagram. Ldr is light dependent resistor. When its dark the ldr has high resistance. Circuit of a compact and true solid state automatic lawn light is described here.
This makes the voltage at the base of the transistor too low to turn the transistor on. The circuit can be used to switch on incandescent garden light bulbs at desk and switch off them at dawn. The circuit of light detector is very simple and easy to build with very few components. Ldr is a special type of variable resistor which value can be increased or decreased according to light falling on it. Transistor q1 and transistor q2 are connected as not gate. As you can see in the ldr circuit diagram it can be a distinguished as two smaller circuits.
Therefore no current will go from the collector to the emitter of the transistor. Light detector sensor circuit diagram. How the ldr circuit diagram works. The ldr circuit diagram works like this. In the morning time this sensor has a low resistance around 100ω. A 10 mm encapsulated light dependent resistor ldr here works as the twilight detector.
A voltage divider made using ldr ldr1 and a potentiometer rv1 b output led d1 in our switching circuit made using a. Thus the power supply flows through the ldr ground through the variable resistor and resistor as shown in the above light sensor circuit.
