    ABSTRACT

    AIM: To operate domestic appliances using light source.

    A 230volts single phase AC supply is given to a light controller circuit, where

    it is converted into 6volts dc through a regulator (A 7806 IC) and an op-amp is

    used as comparator. The circuit is based on a voltage comparator circuit wired

    around IC 1. The non inverting input of IC1 is given with a reference voltage of

    6V using resistors . The photo resistor and comparator are connected such that

    when the light beam falls on the photo resistor .The non-inverting terminal voltage

    of the comparator will be greater than the inverting terminal voltage, and the out put of the

    comparator goes high (~12 V).This makes transistor Q1 on and it drives the relay. As a

    result we get a relay switching according to the intensity of the light falling on the LDR. If

    there is any abrupt interruption of the light beam at any point the load operation is stopped.

    Any kind of light beam can be used to operate the load which is one of the advantages.

    1. INTRODUCTION

    1.0 LIGHT CONTROLLER CIRCUIT:

    In this circuit an optical link (or) Opto coupler is placed between the light controller

    circuit and isolation circuit for the isolation purpose. This isolation circuit has an inbuilt

    LED and Photo transistor used for enhancement of the output. This happens when the LED

    works, then the photo transistor senses the light which results in enhancement of the

    output.

    1.1 RELAY CIRCUIT:

    An electromagnetic relay switch of 6 volts is used here to isolate AC and DC parts. One

    end of the switch is connected to AC and the other end is connected to DC. This circuit

    protects from over voltage, by isolating both the circuits. For continuous operation load a

    timer can be used (Optional). So when the light sensing device `senses the light (from any

    source) load appliances connected to the one end of the electromagnetic relay switch is

    operated.

    2.1 BLOCK DIAGRAM DESCRIPTION:

    The entire circuit for the domestic appliances controlled by light source is divided into

    four main parts.

    They are as follows

    2.1.1 Rectifying Circuit

    2.1.2 Regulating Circuit

    2.1.3 Comparator Circuit

    2.1.4 Isolation Circuit.

    These circuits are clearly explained below.

    2.1.1 Rectifying Circuit:

    This part of the circuit consists of a 230v primary to 12 v secondary transformer and a

    rectifier. The 230 v ac supply is given to the transformer which is step down to 12 ac

    supply . this 12v ac supply is given to the rectifier. The rectifier rectifies the 12 v ac supply

    to 12 v dc supply.

    2.1.2 Regulating Circuit:

    The regulator circuit consists of a regulator 7806. The 12 v dc supply is given to the

    regulator 7806 where it is further brought down to 6v dc supply with the help of the

    regulator. This is the regulation part.

    2.1.3 Comparator Circuit:

    The comparator circuit consists of a comparator ICLM311 and a LDR. The output from

    the regulator is given to the comparator. When the LDR senses light the comparator

    compares the inverting and non-inverting terminals. when the non inverting terminal

    voltage is greater than the inverting terminal voltage the required maximum output voltage

    is obtained.

    2.1.4 Isolation Circuit:

    The isolation circuit consists of an opto coupler and an electromagnetic relay switch.

    When the maximum required output is received from the comparator the opto coupler

    which acts as isolation between the comparator and the switch sends a signal to the switch

    and the switch operates. When the switch operates the domestic appliance starts working.

    fig3.0: light operated domestic appliances

    3.1 WORKING PRINCIPLE:

    Adjust POT R1 to set the desired light intensity for switching the relay. For this

    illuminate the LDR with the desired light intensity. The relay will be either ON or OFF.

    Adjust POT R1 slowly so that the state of the relay changes. Thats it. Now the circuit is

    set for the given intensity of light. Assemble the circuit on a good quality PCB or common

    board. You can use either a 12 V battery or a well regulated & filtered 12V DC mainsoperated power supply. The pin 5&6 (Balance & Balance/Strobe) of IC LM311 are shorted

    to minimize the chance of oscillations. The pin out of LM311 is also given together with

    the circuit diagram. The whenever the LDR or the photo resistor senses the light

    beam the IC gives the required maximum output voltage to the optical link (opto

    coupler) where the electrical signal is converted to a light beam, transferred, then

    converted back to an electrical signal, makes the electromagnetic relay switch

    operates and the domestic appliance starts working.

    4. DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPONENTS

    The detailed description of the components used in the control of domestic

    appliances using a light source is clearly explained below.

    4.1 230 V AC primary to 12 V AC Secondary Transformer

    Transformer is static piece of apparatus by means of which electric power in

    one circuit is transformed to electric power of same frequency in another circuit.

    Its based upon MUTUAL INDUCTION. The mutual induction between two circuits

    linked by a common flux.

    Fig 4.1: Transformer

    Transformers convert AC electricity from one voltage to another with little loss

    of power. Transformers work only with AC and this is one of the reasons why

    mains electricity is AC. Step-down transformers reduce voltage. Most power supplies

    use a step-down transformer to reduce the dangerously high mains voltage to a

    safer low voltage.

    The input coil is called the primary and the output coil is called the secondary.

    There is no electrical connection between the two coils , instead they are linked by

    an alternating magnetic field created in the soft-iron core of the transformer. The

    two lines in the middle of the circuit symbol represents the core.

    Fig4.1.1: Basic model of a Transformer with output waveform.

    Fig4.1.2: Transformer showing the windings.

    The colorful picture of a transformer is as shown above. Transformers waste

    very little power so the power out is (almost) equal to the power in. Note that as

    voltage is stepped down current is stepped up.

    The ratio of the number of turns on each coil, called the turns ratio, determines

    the ratio of the voltages. A step-down transformer has a large number of turns on

    its primary (input) coil which is connected to the high voltage mains supply, and

    a small number of turns on its secondary (output) coil to give a low output

    voltage. In most situations, power that travels over power lines is at a higher

    voltage due to the fact that there are power losses in route to their destinations.

    06621A0466 LIGHT OPERATED DOMESTIC06621A0496 APPLIANCES

    When the power reaches its destination, the power level can be stepped down.

    Thus, if power voltage comes through power lines at a higher voltage current than

    needed, step down transformers will decrease the voltage input allowing equipment

    to run with a power source that is the same voltage.

    4.2 DIODES

    In electronics a diode is a two-terminal device .Diodes have two active

    electrodes between which the signal of interest may flow, and most are used

    for their unidirectional electric current property.

    Fig 4.2: Diodes

    The most common function of a diode is to allow an electric current to pass

    in one direction (called the forward biased c ondition) and to block the current

    in the opposite direction (the reverse biased condition). Today the most

    common diodes are made from semiconductor materials such as silicon or

    Germanium.

    4.3 Zener Diode

    Fig 4.3: Zener diode schematic symbol.

    Current-voltage characteristic of a Zener diode with a breakdown voltage of 17 volt.

    A Zener diode is a type of diode that permits current in the forward directionlike a normal diode, but also in the reverse direction if the voltage is larger

    than the breakdown voltage known as "Zener knee voltage" or "Zener voltage".

    Fig 4.3.1: Zener diode

    A conventional solid-state diode will not allow significant current if it is

    Reverse-biased below its reverse breakdown voltage. When the reverse bias

    breakdown voltage is exceeded, a conventional diode is subject to high current

    due to avalanche breakdown. Unless this current is limited by external

    circuitry, the diode will be permanently damaged. In case of large forward bias

    the diode exhibits a voltage drop due to its junction built-in voltage and

    internal resistance. The amount of the voltage drop depends on the

    semiconductor material and the doping concentrations.

    A Zener diode exhibits almost the same properties, except the device is

    specially designed so as to have a greatly reduced breakdown voltage, the so-

    called Zener voltage. A Zener diode contains a heavily doped p-n junction

    allowing electrons to tunnel from the valence band of the p-type material to

    the conduction band of the n-type material. In the atomic scale, this tunneling

    corresponds to the transport of valence band electrons into the empty

    conduction band states; as a result of the reduced barrier between these bands

    and high electric fields that are induced due to the relatively high levels of

    doping on both sides. A reverse-biased Zener diode will exhibit a controlled

    breakdown and allow the current to keep the voltage across the Zener diode at

    the Zener voltage. For example, a diode with a Zener breakdown voltage of 3.2

    V will exhibit a voltage drop of 3.2 V if reverse bias voltage applied across it

    is more than its Zener voltage. However, the current is not unlimited, so the

    Zener diode is typically used to generate a reference voltage for an amplifier

    stage, or as a voltage stabilizer for low-current applications.

    The breakdown voltage can be controlled quite accurately in the doping

    process. While tolerances within 0.05% are available, the most widely used

    tolerances are 5% and 10%.

    Another mechanism that produces a similar effect is the avalanche effect as

    in the avalanche diode. The two types of diode are in fact constructed the

    same way and both effects are present in diodes of this type. In silicon diodes

    up to about 5.6 volts, the Zener effect is the predominant effect and shows a

    marked negative temperature coefficient. Above 5.6 volts , the avalanche effect

    becomes predominant and exhibits a positive temperature coefficient.

    In a 5.6 V diode, the two effects occur together and their temperature

    coefficients neatly cancel each other out, thus the 5.6 V diode is the component

    of choice in temperature-critical applications.

    Modern manufacturing techniques have produced devices with voltages lower

    than 5.6 V with negligible temperature coefficients, but as higher voltage

    devices are encountered, the temperature coefficient rises dramatically. A 75 V

    diode has 10 times the coefficient of a 12 V diode. All such diodes, regardless

    of breakdown voltage, are usually marketed under the umbrella term of "Zener

    diode".

    4.3.1 Uses:

    06621A0466 LIGHT OPERATED DOMESTIC06621A0496 APPLIANCES

    Zener diodes are widely used to regulate the voltage across a circuit. When

    connected in parallel with a variable voltage source so that it is reverse biased,

    a Zener diode conducts when the voltage reaches the diode's reverse

    breakdown voltage. From that point it keeps the voltage at that value.

    4.4 REGULATOR

    A voltage regulator is an electrical regulator designed to automatically

    maintain a constant voltage level.

    It may use an electromechanical mechanism, or passive or active electronic

    components. Depending on the design, it may be used to regulate one or more

    AC or DC voltages.

    Fig 4.4: Electronic symbol for Voltage Regulator.

    All modern electronic voltage regulators operate by comparing the actual

    output voltage to some internal fixed reference voltage. Any difference is

    amplified and used to control the regulation element in such a way as to

    reduce the voltage error.

    This forms a negative feedback servo control loop ; increasing the open-loop

    gain tends to increase regulation accuracy but reduce stability (avoidance of

    oscillation, or ringing during step changes). There will also be a trade-off

    between stability and the speed of the response to changes. If the output

    voltage is too low (perhaps due to input voltage reducing or load current

    increasing), the regulation element is commanded, up to a point , to produce a

    higher output voltage - by dropping less of the input voltage (for linear series

    regulators and switching regulators), or to draw input current for longer

    11

  • 8/9/2019 Domestic Appliances Controlled by Light Source

    12/41

    06621A0466 LIGHT OPERATED DOMESTIC06621A0496 APPLIANCES

    periods (boost-type switching regulators); if the output voltage is too high, the

    regulation element will normally be commanded to produce a lower voltage.

    However, many regulators have over-current protection, So entirely stop

    sourcing current (or limit the current in some way) if the output current is too

    high, and some regulators may also shut down if the input voltage is outside a

    given range.

    (7806): There are quite a few solid-state voltage regulators on the market that can

    be applied to automotive use. One of the simplest is the 7806, a 6 volt, 1 amp

    regulator .

    Fig 4.4.1: 7806 Regulator

    4.5 CAPACITORS:

    A capacitor or condenser is a passive electronic component consisting of a

    pair of conductors separated by a dielectric. When a voltage potentialdifference exists between the conductors, an electric field is present in the

    dielectric. This field stores energy and produces a mechanical force between

    the plates. The effect is greatest between wide, flat, parallel, narrowly

    separated conductors.

    Fig 4.5: Capacitor

    An ideal capacitor is characterized by a single constant value, capacitance,

    which is measured in farads. This is the ratio of the electric charge on each

    conductor to the potential difference between them. In practice, the dielectric

    between the plates passes a small amount of leakage current. The conductors

    and leads introduce an equivalent series resistance and the dielectric has an

    electric field strength limit resulting in a breakdown voltage.

    The properties of capacitors in a circuit may determine the resonant

    frequency and quality factor of a resonant circuit, power dissipation and

    operating frequency in a digital logic circuit, energy capacity in a high-power

    system, and many other important system characteristics Function

    Capacitors store electric charge. They are used to smooth varying DC supplies

    by acting as a reservoir of charge. They are also used in filter circuits because

    capacitors easily pass AC (changing) signals but they block DC (constant) signals.

    Capacitance

    This is a measure of a capacitor's ability to store charge. A large capacitance

    means that more charge can be stored. Capacitance is measured in farads, symbol

    F. However 1F is very large, so prefixes are used to show the smaller values.

    Three prefixes (multipliers) are used, (micro), n (nano) and p (pico):

    means 10 -6 (millionth), so 1000000F = 1F

    n means 10 -9 (thousand-millionth), so 1000nF = 1F

  • 8/9/2019 Domestic Appliances Controlled by Light Source

    14/41

    06621A0466 LIGHT OPERATED DOMESTIC06621A0496 APPLIANCES

    P means 10 -12 (million-millionth), so 1000pF = 1nF

    Capacitor values can be very difficult to find because there are many types

    of capacitor with different labeling systems !

    There are many types of capacitor but they can be split into two groups,

    polarized and un polarized. Each group has its own circuit symbol.

    4.5.1 Electrolytic capacitors:

    Fig 4.5.1: Electronic Capacitors

    Electrolytic capacitors are polarized and they must be connected the correct way

    round, at least one of their leads will be marked + or -. They are not damaged by

    heat when soldering.

    There are two designs of electrolytic capacitors; axial where the leads are

    attached to each end (220F in picture) and radial where both leads are at the

    same end (10F in picture). Radial capacitors tend to be a little smaller and

    they stand upright on the circuit board.

    It is easy to find the value of electrolytic capacitors because they are clearly

    printed with their capacitance and voltage rating. The voltage rating can be

    quite low ( 6V for example) and it should always be checked when selecting an

    electrolytic capacitor. If the project parts list does not specify a voltage, choose

    a capacitor with a rating which is greater than the project's power supply

    voltage. 25V is a sensible minimum most battery circuits.

    4.6 RESISTORS

    A Resistor is a two-terminal electronic component designed to oppose an

    electric current by producing a voltage drop between its terminals in

    proportion to the current, that is, in accordance with Ohms law:

    V = IR

    Resistors are used as part of electrical networks and electronic circuits. They

    are extremely commonplace in most electronic equipment. Practical resistors can

    be made of various compounds and films, as well as resistance wire (wire

    made of a high-resistivity alloy, such as nickel/chrome).

    The primary characteristics of resistors are their resistance and the power

    they can dissipate. Other characteristics include temperature coefficient, noise ,

    and inductance . Less well-known is critical resistance , the value below which

    power dissipation limits the maximum permitted current flow, and above which

    the limit is applied voltage. Critical resistance depends upon the materials

    constituting the resistor as well as its physical dimensions; it's determined by

    design.

    Resistors can be integrated into hybrid and printed circuits , as well as

    Integrated circuits . Size, and position of leads (or terminals) are relevant to

    equipment designers; resistors must be physically large enough not to overheat

    when dissipating their power.

    Fixed and Variable Resistors

    There are two kinds of resistors, FIXED and VARIABLE. The fixed resistor

    will have one value and will never change . The tapped resistor has several

    fixed taps and makes more than one resistance value available. The sliding

    contact resistor shown in C has an adjustable collar that can be moved to tap

    off any resistance within the ohmic value range of the resistor.

    There are two types of variable resistors, one called a POTENTIOMETER and the other a RHEOSTAT . An example of the potentiometer is the volume

    control on your radio, and an example of the rheostat is the dimmer control

    for the dash lights in an automobile. There is a slight difference between

    them. Rheostats usually have two connections, one fixed and the other

    moveable. Any variable resistor can properly be called a rheostat. The

    potentiometer always has three connections, two fixed and one moveable.

    Generally, the rheostat has a limited range of values and a high current-

    handling capability. The potentiometer has a wide range of values, but it

    usually has a limited current-handling capability. Potentiometers are always

    connected as voltage dividers.

    These are miniature versions of the standard variable resistor. They are designed

    to be mounted directly onto the circuit board and adjusted only when the circuit is

    built. For example to set the frequency of an alarm tone or the sensitivity of a

    light-sensitive circuit. A small screwdriver or similar tool is required to adjust

    presets.

    Presets are much cheaper than standard variable resistors so they are

    sometimes used in projects where a standard variable resistor would normally

    be used. Multi turn presets are used where very precise adjustments

    must be made. The screw must be turned many times (10+) to move the slider

    from one end of the track to the other, giving very fine control.

    4.7 Light Dependent Resistor

    A Light Dependent Resistor ( LDR, photoconductor, or photocell) is a device

    which has a resistance which varies according to the amount of light falling on its

    surface.

    A typical light dependent resistor is picture is shown. Different LDR's havedifferent specifications, however the LDR's we sell in the REUK Shop are fairly

    standard and have a resistance in total darkness of 1 M Ohm, and a resistance of a

    couple of k Ohm in bright light

    06621A0466 LIGHT OPERATED DOMESTIC06621A0496 APPLIANCES

    Light dependent resistors are a vital component in any electric circuit which is

    to be turned on and off automatically according to the level of ambient light - for

    example, solar powered garden lights, and night security lighting.

    An LDR can even be used in a simple remote control circuit using the backlight

    of a mobile phone to turn on a device - call the mobile from anywhere in the

    world, it lights up the LDR, and lighting (or a garden sprinkler ) can be turned on

    remotely!

    Light Dependent Resistor Circuits:

    There are two basic circuits using light dependent resistors - the first is

    activated by darkness, the second is activated by light. The two circuits are very

    similar and just require an LDR, some standard resistors , a variable resistor and

    any small signal transistor

    Fig 4.7 : Light Dependent Resistor.

    In the circuit diagram above, the LED lights up whenever the LDR is in

    darkness. The 10K variable resistor is used to fine-tune the level of darkness

    required before the LED lights up. The 10K standard resistor can be changed as

    required to achieve the desired effect, although any replacement must be at least

    1K to protect the transistor from being damaged by excessive current.

    By swapping the LDR over with the 10K and 10K variable resistors , the circuit

    will be activated instead by light. Whenever sufficient light falls on the LDR the

    LED will light up.

    Using an LDR in the Real World:

    The real world circuit, the LED (and resistor) between the positive voltage input

    (Vin) and the collector (C) of the transistor would be replaced with the device to

    be powered.

    Typically a relay is used - particularly when the low voltage light detecting

    circuit is used to switch on (or off) a 240V mains powered device. A diagram of

    that part of the circuit is shown above. When darkness falls (if the LDR circuit is

    configured that way around), the relay is triggered and the 240V device.

    4.8 ICLM311:

    An operational amplifier , which is often called an op-amp , is a DC - coupled

    high - gain electronic voltage amplifier with differential inputs and, usually , a

    single output. Typically the output of the op-amp is controlled either by

    negative feedback , which largely determines the magnitude of its output

    voltage gain, or by positive feedback , which facilitates regenerative gain and

    oscillation. High input impedance at the input terminals and low output

    impedance is important typical characteristics.

    Op-amps are among the most widely used electronic devices today, being

    used in a vast array of consumer, industrial, and scientific devices. Many

    standard IC op-amps cost only a few cents in moderate production volume;

    however some integrated or hybrid operational amplifiers with special

    performance specifications may cost over $100 US In small quantities.

    Modern designs are electronically more rugged than earlier implementations

    and some can sustain direct short circuits on their outputs without damage.

    The op-amp is one type of differential amplifier. Other types of differential

    amplifier include the fully differential amplifier (similar to the op-amp, but

    with 2 outputs), the instrumentation amplifier (usually built from 3 op-amps),

    the isolation amplifier (similar to the instrumentation amplifier, but which

    works fine with common-mode voltages that would destroy an ordinary op-

    amp), and negative feedback amplifier (usually built from 1 or more op-amps

    and a resistive feedback network).

    Fig 4.8: Amplifier

    The LM311 is a voltage comparator that has input currents nearly a thousandtimes lower than devices like the LM106 or LM710. It is also designed to operate

    over a wider range of supply voltages from standard 15V op amp supplies down

    to the single 5V supply used for IC logic. The output is compatible with RTL,

    DTL and TTL as well as MOS circuits. Further, the LM311 can drive lamps or

    relays, switching voltages up to 50V at currents as high as 50 m A.

    Both the inputs and the outputs of the LM311 can be isolated from system

    ground, and the output can drive loads referred to ground, the positive supply or the negative supply. Offset balancing and strobe capability are provided and outputs

    can be wire OR'ed. Although slower than the LM106 and LM710 (200 ns response

    time vs. 40 ns) the LM311 is also much less prone to spurious oscillations.

    The LM311 has a temperature range of 0C to +70C.

    4.9 OPTO COUPLER:

    An opto coupler integrated circuit. In electronics , an opto coupler is a

    device that uses a short optical transmission path to transfer an electronic

    signal between elements of a circuit , typically a transmitter and a receiver,

    while keeping them electrically isolatedsince the electrical signal is converted

    to a light beam, transferred, then converted back to an electrical signal, there

    is no need for electrical connection between the source and destination circuits .

    Isolation between input and output is rated at 7,500V peak for 1 second. The

    opto-isolator is simply a package that contains both an infrared light-emitting

    diode LED and a photo detector such as a photosensitive silicon diode ,

    transistor Darlington pair , or SCR. The wave-length responses of the two

    devices are tailored to be as identical as possible to permit the highest measure

    of coupling possible. Other circuitryfor example an output amplifier may be

    integrated into the package. An opto-isolator is usually thought of as a single

    integrated package, but opto-isolation can also be achieved by using separate

    devices.

    Digital opto-isolators change the state of their output when the input state

    changes; analog isolators produce an analog signal which reproduces the input.

    Configurations

    Schematic diagram of a very simple opto coupler with an LED and

    phototransistor. The dashed line represents the isolation barrier, over which there is

    no electrical contact.

    A common implementation is a LED and a phototransistor in a l light- tight

    housing to exclude ambient light and without common electrical connection,

    positioned so that light from the LED will impinge on the photo detector.When an electrical signal is applied to the input of the opto isolator , its LED

    lights and illuminates the photo detector, producing a corresponding electrical

    signal in the output circuit. Unlike a transformer the opto-isolator allows DC

    coupling and can provide any desired degree of electrical isolation and

    protection from serious over voltage conditions in one circuit affecting the

    other. A higher transmission ratio can be obtained by using a Darlington

    instead of a simple phototransistor, at the cost of reduced noise immunity and

    higher delay. With a photodiode as the detector, the

    output current is proportional to the intensity of incident light supplied by the

    emitter. The diode can be used in a photovoltaic mode or a photoconductive

    mode. In photovoltaic mode, the diode acts as a current source in parallel with

    a forward-biased diode. The output current and voltage are dependent on t he

    load impedance and light intensity. In photoconductive mode, the diode is

    connected to a supply voltage, and the magnitude of the current conducted is

    directly proportional to the intensity of light. This opto coupler type is

    significantly faster than photo transistor type, but the transmission ratio is very

    low; it is common to integrate an output

    amplifier circuit into the same package.

    The optical path may be air or a dielectric waveguide . W hen high noise

    immunity is required an optical conductive shield can be integrated into the

    optical path. The transmitting and receiving elements of an optical isolator may

    be contained within a single compact module, for mounting, for example, on a

    circuit board; in this case, the module is often called an opto isolator or opto-isolator . The photo sensor may be a photocell , phototransistor , or an optically

    triggered SCR or TRIAC. This device may in turn operate a power relay or

    contractor.

    Analog opto isolators often have two independent, closely matched output

    phototransistors, one of which is used to linearize the response using negative

    feedback.

    Switched-mode power supplies use opto couplers for mains isolation. As

    they work in an environment with much electrical noise and with signals

    which are not small, opto couplers with low transmission ratio are

    preferred.

    Where electrical safety is paramount, opto couplers can totally isolate

    circuitry which may be touched by humans from mains electricity.

    Medical equipment often uses opto couplers.

    Opto couplers are used to isolate low-current control or signal circuitry from

    transients generated or transmitted by power supply and high-current control

    circuits. The latter are used within motor and machine control function blocks.

    Blue, green, and red LEDs; these can be combined to produce most perceptible

    colors, including white. Infrared and ultraviolet (UVA) LEDs are also available.

    A light-emitting-diode (LED) is a semiconductor diode that emits light when an

    electric current is applied in the forward direction of the device, as in the simpleLED circuit . The effect is a form of electroluminescence where incoherent and

    narrow- spectrum light is emitted from the p-n junction in a solid state material.

    reflection. The colour of the emitted light depends on the composition and

    condition of the semi conducting material used, and can be infrared , visible ,

    for sterilization of water and disinfection of devices, and as a grow light to

    4.11. TRANSISTOR SL100:

    Function

    Transistors amplify current, for example they can be used to amplify the small

    output current from a logic IC so that it can operate a lamp, relay or other high

    current device. In many circuits a resistor is used to convert the changing current to

    a changing voltage, so the transistor is being used to amplify voltage.

    Fig 4.11: Transistors

    A transistor may be used as a switch (either fully on with maximum current, or

    fully off with no current) and as an amplifier (always partly on). The amount of

    current amplification is called the current gain, symbol h FE.

    Types of transistor

    There are two types of standard transistors, NPN and PNP, with different circuit

    symbols. The letters refer to the layers of semiconductor material used to make the

    Transistor. Most transistors used today are NPN because this is the easiest type to make

    from silicon. If you are new to electronics it is best to start by learning how to use NPN

    transistors

    Fig 4.11.1: npn and pnp transistor symbols.

    The leads are labeled base (B), collector (C) and emitter (E).These terms refer to the

    internal operation of a transistor but they are not much help in understanding how a

    transistor is used, so just treat them as labels!

    NPN

    Fig 4.11.2: The symbol of an NPN Bipolar Junction Transistor.

    NPN is one of the two types of bipolar transistors, in which the letters "N" and

    "P" refer to the majority charge carriers inside the different regions of the transistor.

    Most bipolar transistors used today are NPN, because electron mobility is higher

    than hole mobility in semiconductors, allowing greater currents and faster operation.

    Fig 4.11.3: NPN Transistor

    NPN transistors consist of a layer of P- doped semiconductor (the "base") between

    two N-doped layers. A small current entering the base in common-emitter mode is

    amplified in the collector output. In other terms, an NPN transistor is "on" when its

    base is pulled high relative to the emitter.

    The arrow in the NPN transistor symbol is on the emitter leg and points in the

    direction of the conventional current flow when the device is in forward active mode.

    One mnemonic device for identifying the symbol for the NPN transistor is "not

    pointing in or `never points in".

    PNP

    The other type of BJT is the PNP with the letters "P" and "N" referring to themajority charge carriers inside the different regions of the transistor.

    PNP transistors consist of a layer of N- doped semiconductor between two layers of

    base is pulled low relative to the emitter.

    Darlington Pair

    A Darlington pair is two transistors connected together to give a very high current

    gain. In addition to standard (bipolar junction) transistors, there are field-effect transistors

    which are usually referred to as FETs. They have different circuit symbols and properties

    and they are not (yet) covered by this page.

    Transistors have three leads which must be connected the correct way round. Please

    take care with this because a wrongly connected transistor may be damaged instantly when

    you switch on.

    If you are lucky the orientation of the transistor will be clear from the PCB or strip

    board layout diagram, otherwise you will need to refer to a supplier's catalogue to identify

    the leads. The drawings on the right show the leads for some of the most common case

    styles.

    Please note that transistor lead diagrams show the view from below with the leads

    towards you. This is the opposite of IC (chip) pin diagrams which show the view from

    above.

    Testing a transistor

    Transistors can be damaged by heat when soldering or by misuse in a circuit. If you

    suspect that a transistor may be damaged there are two easy ways to test it:

    Testing with a multimeter

    Use a multimeter or a simple tester (battery, resistor and LED) to check each pair of

    leads for conduction. Set a digital multimeter to diode test and an analogue multimeter to a

    low resistance range.

    4.12 ELECTROMAGNETIC RELAY SWITCH:

    An electromagnetic relay is a type of electrical switch controlled by an electromagnet .

    He electromagnetic relay is used in a variety of applications, including alarms and sensors,

    signal switching, and the detection and control of faults on electrical distribution lines. The

    electromagnetic relay was invented in 1835, and its straightforward function has not

    changed much since. Consumers interact with the electromagnetic relay in a variety of

    forms daily, from timed office lights to test buttons and other quality control devices.

    The core of the electromagnetic relay, naturally, is an electromagnet, formed by

    winding a coil around an iron core. When the coil is energized by passing current through

    it, the core in turn becomes magnetized, attracting a pivoting iron armature. As the

    armature pivots, it operates one or more sets of contacts, thus affecting the circuit. When

    the magnetic charge is lost, the armature and contacts are released. Demagnetization can

    cause a leap of voltage across the coil, damaging other components of the device when

    turned off. Therefore, the electromagnetic relay usually makes use of a diode to restrict the

    flow of the charge, with the cathode connected at the most positive end of the coil

    Fig 4.12: Electromagnetic relay switch

    Contacts on an electromagnetic relay can take three forms. Normally opened contacts

    connect the circuit when the device is activated and disconnect it when the device is not

    active, like a light switch. Normally closed contacts disconnect the circuit when the relay is

    magnetized, and a change-over incorporates one of each type of contact. The configuration

    of the contacts is dependant upon the intended application of the device.

    The electro magnetic relay is capable of controlling an output of higher power than the

    input, and it is often used as a buffer to isolate circuits of varying energy potentials as a

    result. When a low current is applied to the electromagnet, throwing the switch, the device

    is capable of allowing a higher current to flow through it. This is advantageous in some

    applications, such as tripping alarms and other safety devices, because a safer low current

    can be used to activate an application requiring more energy.

    would be destroyed rapidly by oxidation . Incandescent bulbs are also sometimes

    called electric lamps , a term also applied to the original arc lamps .

    Incandescent bulbs are made in a wide range of sizes and voltages , from 1.5 volts

    to about 300 volts. They require no external regulating equipment and have a low

    manufacturing cost, and work well on either alternating current or direct current

    (producing negligible flicker on either.) As a result the incandescent lamp is widely

    used in household and commercial lighting, for portable lighting, such as table lamps,

    some car headlamps and electric flashlights , and for decorative and advertising

    lighting.

    Fig 4.13: Incandescent bulb.

    Some applications of the incandescent bulb make use of the heat generated, such

    as incubators , brooding boxes for poultry , heat lights for reptile tanks , infrared

    heating for industrial heating and drying processes, and the Easy-Bake Oven toy. In

    cold weather the heat shed by incandescent lamps contributes to building heating, but

    in hot climates lamp losses increase the energy used by air conditioning systems.

    Incandescent light bulbs are gradually being replaced in many applications by

    other types of electric light such as ( compact ) fluorescent lamps , high-intensity

    discharge lamps , light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and other devices. These newer

    technologies give more visible light for the same amount of electrical energy input,

    and often generate much less heat. Some jurisdictions, such as the European Union

    are in the process of phasing-out the use of incandescent light bulbs in favor of more

    energy-efficient lighting.

    3. Tin reacts and alloys with metal easily.

    4. Lead is soft and dense, but surface gets quickly corroded.

    5. Lead reduces the melting temperature and brittleness thus adding to the overall strength

    of alloy.

    5.2 METALLURGY OF SOLDER JOINTS

    When two metals A and B are soldered with a filler material S. The following

    regions occur in the final joint structure.

    1. PURE A

    2. ALLOY OF A AND S

    3. PURE S

    4. ALLOY OF S AND B

    5. PURE B

    The alloy region consists of irreversible compounds created out of the metals and the

    filler. The filler, the thickness of this alloy being 0.1 to 1.0 microns. This zone is usually

    called as intermetallic layer in case of Cu-Solder (sn-pb) combination. They are typically

    cu3sn, cu6sn5. This intermetallic layer is mainly responsible for the strength of the joint.

    This layer thickness increases with time and temperature of the soldering. This

    intermetallic layer is brittle in nature. Hence the thickness of this layer has to be controlled.

    5.3 What is solder?

    Solder is an alloy (mixture) of tin and lead, typically 60% tin

    and 40% lead. It melts at a temperature of about 200C. Coating

    a surface with solder is called 'tinning' because of the tin content

    of solder. Lead is poisonous and you should always wash your

    hands after using solder.

    Solder for electronics use contains tiny cores of flux, like the wires inside a mains flex.

    The flux is corrosive, like an acid, and it cleans the metal surfaces as

    the solder melts. This is why you must melt the solder actually on the

    joint, not on the iron tip. Without flux most joints would fail because metals quickly

    oxidise and the solder itself will not flow properly onto a dirty, oxidised, metal surface.

    The best size of solder for electronics is 22swg (SWG= standard wire gauge).

    5.4 Desoldering

    At some stage you will probably need to desolder a joint to remove or re-position a wire or

    component. There are two ways to remove the solder:

    1. With a desoldering pump (solder

    sucker)

    Set the pump by pushing the spring-loaded

    plunger down until it locks.

    Apply both the pump nozzle and the tip of your soldering iron to the joint.

    Wait a second or two for the solder to melt.

    Then press the button on the pump to release the

    plunger and suck the molten solder into the tool.

    Repeat if necessary to remove as much solder as possible. The pump will need emptying occasionally by unscrewing the nozzle.

    2. With solder remover wick

    (copper braid)

    Apply both the end of the wick and the tip of your soldering iron to the joint.

    As the solder melts most of it will flow onto the wick, away from the joint .

    Remove the wick first, then the soldering iron.

    Cut off and discard the end of the wick coated with solder.

    After removing most of the solder from the joint(s) you may be able to remove the wire

    or component lead straight away (allow a few seconds for it to cool). If the joint will not

    come apart easily apply your soldering iron to melt the remaining traces of solder at the

    same time as pulling the joint apart, taking care to avoid burning yourself.

    For electronics work the best type is one powered by mains electricity (230V in the

    UK), it should have a heatproof cable for safety. The iron's power rating should be 15 to

    25W and it should be fitted with a small bit of 2 to 3mm diameter.

    5.6 Other types of soldering iron

    Low voltage soldering irons are available, but their extra safety is undermined if you

    have a mains lead to their power supply! Temperature controlled irons are excellent for

    frequent use, but not worth the extra expense if you are a beginner. Gas-powered irons are

    designed for use where no mains supply is available and are not suitable for everyday use.

    Pistol shaped solder guns are far too powerful and cumbersome for normal electronics use.

    5.7 Soldering iron stand

    You must have a safe place to put the iron when you are

    not holding it. The stand should include a sponge which

    can be dampened for cleaning the tip of the iron.

    The working of a domestic appliances controlled by a light source is as follows. The

    primary of the transformer is given a 230v AC supply. As the transformer is a step down

    transformer the output is 12 V ac supply. The rectifier connected to the secondary of the

    transformer converts the 12V dc supply. The 12V dc supply is further reduced to 6 V dc

    supply using a regulator 7806. Regulator operates by comparing actual output to some

    fixed internal reference voltage. As we are using regulator 7806 the required internal

    reference voltage is 6v. And hence the 12v dc supply is reduced to 6v dc supply.

    When the light is incident on the Light dependent resistor (LDR), where the resistance

    is dependent on the intensity of the light, the non inverting and the inverting terminals of

    the op-amp IC311 are compared. If the non inverting terminal voltage is greater than the

    inverting terminal voltage then the signal is passed to the opto coupler or the optical link.

    The opto coupler or the opto isolator provides isolation between the comparator circuit and

    the relay switch, hence this is known as isolating circuit as it provides isolation. The opto

    coupler is optical transmission path to transfer an electronic signal between elements of

    a circuit , typically a transmitter and a receiver, while keeping them electrically isolated

    since the electrical signal is converted to a light beam, transferred, then converted back to

    an electrical signal, there is no need for electrical connection between the source and

    destination circuits.

    When the non inverting terminal is greater than the inverting terminal the electronic

    signal is passed to the opto coupler, the opto coupler consists of a led which glows when

    the electronic signal is passed. The LED glows and the electric signal is converted to light

    signal. When the led glows the receiver in the opto coupler coverts the light signal received

    to electronic signal again. This electronic signal is sent to the electromagnetic relay switch

    where the switch operates and the bulbs or the domestic appliance connected to the other

    end of the electromagnetic relay switch can be operated. The voltage on the other end of

    the electromagnetic relay switch is obtained in ac again. thence in the working of the

    domestic appliances controlled by the light source the ac voltage supply is converted to dc

    voltage after the rectifying process and is again converted to ac supply after the operation

    of the electromagnetic rely switch.

    CONCLUSION: Hence the light operated domestic appliances controller can be

    operated using any light source.
