Circuit Documentation

Summary

This circuit is designed to control an AC-powered bulb using a 5V relay and an IR sensor. The IR sensor detects motion and triggers the relay, which in turn controls the AC power to the bulb. The circuit is powered by a 5V battery.

Component List

  1. 5V Relay

    • Pins: Normally Open, Common terminal, Normally Closed, In, GND, VCC
    • Description: A relay that operates at 5V to control high voltage AC loads.
    • Purpose: To switch the AC power to the bulb based on the signal from the IR sensor.
  2. 5V Battery

    • Pins: positive, negative
    • Description: A 5V power source.
    • Purpose: To provide power to the relay and the IR sensor.
  3. IR Sensor

    • Pins: out, gnd, vcc
    • Description: An infrared sensor that detects motion.
    • Purpose: To detect motion and send a signal to the relay.
  4. Bulb

    • Pins: GND, power
    • Description: An AC-powered bulb.
    • Purpose: To provide illumination when the relay is activated.
  5. AC Source

    • Pins: +, -
    • Description: An AC power source.
    • Purpose: To provide AC power to the bulb through the relay.
  6. Comment

    • Pins: None
    • Description: Placeholder for comments.
    • Purpose: Not used in the circuit.
