Auto Intensity Control of Power LED Using Arduino

This document describes a circuit that uses an Arduino, LDR light sensor, and PWM to automatically control the intensity of a power LED based on ambient light conditions. The circuit can not only turn the LED on and off when it is dark or bright outside, but can also vary the LED brightness according to the outside light level. It uses an LDR light sensor to detect ambient light, and PWM signals from the Arduino to gradually increase or decrease the LED intensity based on the LDR reading.

INTRODUCTION
 Sometimes we forget to turn off the lights and
waste electricity and you must have also seen
s t r e e t l i g h t t u r n e d o n i n t h e d a y. W e a l r e a d y
have lots of circuits on Dark detector where
lights turn off automatically if it is bright
outside and turns ON if it is dark outside. But
in this circuit we are not only turning On and
off lights based on light conditions but
also varying the intensity of light according to
outside light conditions. Here we have used
LDR and PWM concept with Arduino for
decreasing or increasing the brightness of
t h e 1 w a t t P o w e r L E D a u t o m a t i c a l l y.
MATERIALS REQUIRED

 Arduino UNO
 LDR
 Resistor (330 ohm, 10k ohm)
 Capacitor 103pf (0.1uF)
 Transistor BC547
 1 watt Power LED
 Connecting wires
 Breadboard
CONTENT
 Sometimes we forget to turn off the lights and waste
electricity and you must have also seen street light turned on
in the day. We already have lots of circuits on Dark
detector where lights turn off automatically if it is bright
outside and turns ON if it is dark outside. But in this circuit we
are not only turning On and off lights based on light conditions
but also varying the intensity of light according to outside light
conditions. Here we have used LDR and PWM concept with
Arduino for decreasing or increasing the brightness of the 1
watt Power LED automatically.
 Basically, PWM refers to Pulse Width Modulation, the output
signal via a PWM pin will be an analog signal and acquired as a
digital signal from the Arduino. It uses the duty cycle of the
digital wave to generate the sequential analog value for the
signal. And, that signal is further used to control the brightness
of the Power LED.
