EE 228 Project

The project involves designing and implementing an automatic night lamp using an LDR and a BJT transistor, which turns an LED ON in darkness and OFF in light. Students will work in groups of up to four to create a portable breadboard prototype, including a circuit diagram and a report. Evaluation will be based on circuit implementation, demonstration, understanding of concepts, project report, and presentation.

Electronics Engineering (EE-228)

Semester Project
Deadline: 30th April 2026 (Thursday)
Note: Maximum 4 students per group

Project Title: Automatic Night Lamp using LDR and Transistor


1. Problem Statement
Design and implement a portable breadboard-based automatic night lamp circuit that
senses ambient light intensity and automatically turns an LED ON in darkness and OFF
in the presence of light.
The system must use an LDR (Light Dependent Resistor) as the sensing element and a
BJT transistor as an electronic switch. The complete circuit should be made using low-
cost and easily available analog components, assembled on a small breadboard, and
powered using a portable battery source for demonstration.

2. Objectives
The objectives of this project are to:

• Understand the working of an LDR as a light sensor


• Study BJT transistor switching operation
• Design a simple analog sensing and switching circuit
• Implement the circuit on a portable breadboard
• Demonstrate practical use of analog electronics in automation

3. Required Components
Students may use the following components:

• LDR
• BC547 transistor
• LED
• Resistors
• Potentiometer
• 9 V battery
• Mini breadboard
• Jumper wires
4. Functional Requirements
The project must satisfy the following:

• LED should remain OFF in normal light


• LED should turn ON when the LDR is covered or placed in darkness
• Complete circuit should fit on a portable breadboard
• Circuit must operate on battery power
• Setup should be easy to carry for viva/demo

5. Deliverables
Each group/student must submit:

• Working breadboard prototype


• Circuit diagram
• List of components
• Brief explanation of working principle
• Short report (2–3 pages)
• Live demonstration

7. Suggested Evaluation Criteria


Criteria Weightage
Circuit implementation 30%
Working demonstration 30%
Understanding of concepts 10%
Project Report 10%
Viva / presentation 20%

8. Learning Outcomes
After completing this project, students will be able to:

• Use analog sensors in practical circuits


• Apply transistor switching concepts
• Assemble breadboard circuits
• Relate electronics with simple automation systems
• Build low-cost portable prototypes
