 LDR

LIGHT DEPENDENT RESISTOR OR ABBREVIATED WITH LDR IS A TYPE OF RESISTOR WHOSE RESISTANCE VALUE OR RESISTANCE
VALUE DEPENDS ON THE INTENSITY OF THE LIGHT IT RECEIVES. LDR RESISTANCE VALUES WILL DECREASE DURING BRIGHT
LIGHT AND THE BARRIERS WILL BE HIGH IF IN DARK CONDITIONS. IN OTHER WORDS, THE LDR (LIGHT DEPENDENT RESISTOR)
FUNCTION IS TO CONDUCT AN ELECTRIC CURRENT IF IT RECEIVES A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF LIGHT INTENSITY (LIGHT
CONDITIONS) AND OBSTRUCTS THE ELECTRIC CURRENT IN DARK CONDITIONS.
 LDR Shapes and Symbols
 Measure LDR in Bright Condition by using Multimeter

1. SET THE POSITION OF THE MULTIMETER SELECTOR SCALE IN THE OHM POSITION.
2. CONNECT THE RED PROBE AND PROBE BLACK MULTIMETER ON BOTH LEGS OF LDR (NO
POLARITY)
3. GIVE A BRIGHT LIGHT TO THE LDR
4. READ THE RESISTANCE VALUE ON THE DISPLAY MULTIMETER. THE LDR RESISTANCE VALUE
UNDER BRIGHT CONDITIONS WILL BE AROUND 500 OHM.
 Measure LDR in Dark Conditions using Multimeter

1. SET THE POSITION OF THE MULTIMETER SELECTOR SCALE IN THE OHM POSITION
2. CONNECT THE RED PROBE AND PROBE BLACK MULTIMETER ON BOTH LEGS OF LDR (NO
POLARITY)
3. COVER THE SURFACE OF THE LDR OR MAKE SURE THE LDR DOES NOT GET LIGHT
4. READ THE RESISTANCE VALUE ON THE DISPLAY MULTIMETER. THE LDR RESISTANCE VALUE IN
DARK CONDITIONS WILL BE AROUND 200 KOHM.
Sample case

A chicken coop needs heat from an incandescent lamp with the right heat. The incandescent
lamp will light up if the surroundings of the enclosure are less exposed to sunlight, and the light will
die by itself if the illumination of sunlight is sufficient.
In this case, it is concluded that the lighting of the chicken coop will
die during the day and will die if there is no sun.We can use the LDR
as a light sensor.
