The sensor in this application, a BPW21R photocell (from Vishay), is used to generate photocurrent proportional to the ambient light intensity (see the figure).
Unscrewing a sensor and replacing it is pretty straightforward. You might need this special socket to clear the wires. Twelve years and more than 100,000 miles have passed under your trusty ...
Capacitive sensor technology has evolved markedly over recent years, underpinned by advancements in integrated circuit design and novel measurement approaches. These sensors function by detecting ...
In the circuit, the voltage at pin 3 is set by VR1 so as to keep the output high in a particular light level. The high output keeps the LED off. The PN Photodiode act as the light sensor. When the ...
