Light Dependant Circuit

This tutorials covers the following topics;

  • Applying an analogue input into the PICAXE

This tutorial introduces applying analogue inputs into the PICAXE. This simple circuit uses an LDR setup in a potential divider circuit to switch between 2 LEDs. One LED when ambient light is above a certain level and another LED when ambient light is below that level.



Whats required for the tutorial;
  • Battery Pack
  • PICAXE 18X developer board with PICAXE 18X
  • 2 LEDs
