Analog Light Sensor + Light Sensitive Switch using OPT101
https://www.electronics-lab.com/analog-light-sensor-light-sensitive-switch-using-opt101/
You may have seen many light-sensitive switch circuits based on an LDR sensor. Usually, the sensitivity of the LDR based light sensor is poor. We wanted a very sensitive light switch hence we decided to make a circuit based on a light sensor rather than LDR. After a little research on the internet, we found […]

ON Semiconductor NOA1213 Ambient Light Sensor (ALS) is a very low power sensor with an analog current output and a power down mode to conserve power. This ALS is designed for handheld device applications with active power dissipation less than 8µA at dark (less than 200pA quiescent power). The NOA1213 ALS operates over a wide […]
Build Your Own I2C Sensor
https://www.electronics-lab.com/build-i2c-sensor/
Since Raspberry Pi doesn’t have a built-in ADC (Analog to Digital converter) to read the voltage off from most of sensors, the best solution is to add I2C ADC chips and modules to your project. Paweł Spychalski faced this problem while building his own weather station that is based on Raspberry Pi. It collects various […]
