Hacks of Electronics
In the field of electronics and optoelectronics, light-sensitive devices play a crucial role in converting light signals into electrical signals. Among the most widely used light sensors are the Photodiode, Phototransistor, and Photoresistor (also known as Light Dependent Resistor or LDR). Though they all respond to light, their construction, working principles, advantages, disadvantages, and applications […]
Light Dependent Resistor (LDR) are widely used in various applications where light detection is required, such as in automatic street-lights, camera light meters, and burglar alarm systems. This article will delve into the symbol, construction, working principle, characteristics, advantages, disadvantages, and applications of LDRs. Additionally, a simple LDR circuit to detect light will be explained […]
