Presented here is an automatic motion sensor switch built around a cheap ‘Doppler
Microwave Radar Sensor’ that can be easily used as standalone detection sensor. The
circuit, designed as an alternative to the common PIR motion detectors. is perfect for
DIY microwave motion sensor light switch, human sensor alarms, smart security
devices, etc. The given circuit offers a detection sensitivity of about 7 meters, and
when triggered its switch remains in the active state for around 3 seconds before
returning to the idle state. At the heart of this affordable idea is the RCWL-0516
microwave radar motion sensor module.

The schematic shown next is infact a perfect blend of an AC230V power supply unit,
and a DC12V electromagnetic relay driver realized with the help of some generally
available inexpensive components, in addition to the aforesaid microwave radar
module. The whole circuit can be assembled on a small piece of
veroboard/customized printed circuit board to enclose in any convenient plastic
container. Keep in mind that the circuit always carries fatal high-voltages, so extreme
care must be taken to ensure that unisolated section of the electronics should be kept
insulated from the outside world!

Itis good, especially corridor lighting, to have a light sensor (CDS Sensor/LDR)
attached with the motion-sensing sensor, since it ensures that even if some
movement is detected, the switch will only be activated when there is little light or
zero light. Here, you can solder a 5mm LDR on the 2-pin solder pad tagged as CDS.
If you are adding the light sensor, note that by adding a resistor (in parallel with the
internal 1M ohm resistor, marked as R-CDS) its possible to change the light detection
threshold as per individual requirement. A 47K-100K resistor in parallel with that 1M
resistor will work fine with standard 5mm LDRs.
As you might noticed, the 12V electromagnetic relay (RL1) in the circuit is driven by an
‘$8060 transistor (Ti), If desired, you can also use other relays with a different supply
voltage rating (6V for instance). However, in that case, the power supply configuration
(now 12V) will have to be changed, of course with some other modifications.

This is a dangerous power supply. When C1 is faulty the zener diode will
be lit. There isnt even a fuse in line.
Its better to use a buck converter or anything with an transformer and a
78L12, Everything is safer than the provided scheme,

@Maatie: Most Chinese electronics designs now are based on
capacitive topologies because they are more compact and
economical. Further, my prototype is working safely since last 90
days. In the circuit, you can find an inrush current limiter (Ra), and a
1UF/400V “CBB22" type capacitor (specifically designed for AC
applications and meet the safety requirements of various safety
standards) as the key component.
See, the Polypropylene film has superior electrical characteristics.
the Polypropylene film features very low dielectric losses, a high
insulation
resistance. a low dielectric absorption, and a very high dielectric
strength. Further, the capacitor has a flame retardant red epoxy resin
seal, Further, in my experience, the most common (usually but not
always) failure mode of a zener diode is short circuit. In short, nothing
to fear more about safety issues!
Obviously youre free to try any better 12V power supply unit in lieu
like the compact 12V smps module from HLK

Can someone tell me that is it possible that switching of relay may
trigger sensor as false detection because i am facing this issue when i
am keeping sensor too close to relay

| was hoping to find a circuit to find timber studs in a wall cladded with
plaster board, using a radar module. | have had many stud finders over
the years and they never work accurately. | always have to drill a hole to
make sure. | have even bought a Flir sensor phone, but it was not good
enough. What do you recommend?

@lance Christiansen’ As youre aware, detecting wood with
electronics is a bit complex task. Materials like wood are very poor
electrical conductors. A commercial wood stud finder works by
sensing density changes inside walls
What | learned so far is that a thermal camera/imager canit see
through walls! However, if we point a thermal camera at a wall it will
detect heat from the wall. and if something inside the wall causes
enough of a temperature difference, the imager will be able to sense
it on the surface of the wall. This doesnt make much sense here.
You can of course try the impulse radar idea (transmitting raw
signals to classify different wall types as well as the material behind
the walls) if youre ready to rig up one device yourself. But what lam
thinking of is the new design of an electronic timber stud detector
able to “see through walls’ it might take sometime to complete.
though,
| apologize for my limited knowledge on this subject. Thanks!
