3079A - Basic Light / Dark Activated Switch

3079A - Basic Light / Dark Activated SwitchThis circuit uses a simple LDR based circuit in super-Darlington set-up to activate the onboard relay (see Relay FAQ for details).

Best suited to applications where the change in light level is large and the transition quick.

The Light/Dark mode switch is used to select either light or dark activation of the relay. This enables the unit to be operated in its low-current standby mode for the majority of the time according to your application.
