In this post I have explained a simple automatic PIR controlled solar garden light circuit which will switch ON the LEDs only under two conditions: when it is completely dark and when a human being is detected in the vicinity. The above feature of the circuit ensures that the LEDs are turned ON only when […]

Darkness Activated PIR Lamp Circuit
A very simple darkness activated or night activated PIR lamp circuit project has been explained in the following article. Further in the article we also learn how to upgrade this circuit with an additional emergency lamp facility. This darkness activated PIR lamp will work as I have explained below: It will remain deactivated or disabled […]
Automatic Door Circuit using PIR – Touchless Door
Along with social distancing and masks, the other major thing the post COVID-19 era has compelled the world to implement is to go touchless. This is being recommended for the many public devices, such as doors, hand sanitizers, buttons, switches etc. in order to restrict the spread of viruses that may be caused due to […]
PIR Burglar Alarm Circuit
The PIR burglar alarm explained here will detect a human intruder within the stipulated range and sound an alarm. Thus, the system could be effectively use for detecting trespassing, theft, intrusion, burglars, or any form of unlawful entry inside a restricted area or zone. Basic Principle The operating principle of the proposed burglar alarm circuit […]
5 Simple Motion Detector Circuits using PIR
A PIR motion sensor alarm is a device which detects the infrared radiation from a moving human body and triggers an an audible alarm. In this post I have explained 5 simple motion detector circuits using op amp and transistor. We also discuss the pinout details of the standard passive infrared (PIR) sensor RE200B. We […]
PIR Sensor Datasheet, Pinout Specifications, Working
In this post I am going to explain the datasheet of PIR or Pyroelectric Infrared Radial Sensor HC-SR501. We will understand for what purpose PIR sensor is used? Its basic trigger operations, pin connection details, technical specifications and finally we will be looking at some real life applications. We will begin by understanding the actual […]
