Step by step build photoresistor LDR NPN BJT 2N3904 light controlled switch circuit by electronzap
I do a step by step build of a 2N3904 NPN Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT) switch that is controlled by a voltage divider made up of a fixed resistor and a photoresistor/light dependent resistor (LDR). This transistor switch circuit is used to turn a LED on and off depending on how much light is falling on the LDR.

If I wanted to light 5 series red LEDs with 12V, I can do so if I protect them with 150Ω. Unfortunately "12V" batteries, tend to have a higher than 12V almost all of the time. 13V pushes the 5 series LEDs with 150Ω current limiting resistor to it's limit of almost 20mA of current (shown in a different video. A 12V (reverse biased) zener diode with 1k resistor can be added to an NPN BJT (such as 2N3904) wired as an Emitter Follower to limit the voltage across the load to about 12V. In fact, when the supply voltage is 20V, there's enough current flowing through the zener diode get about 12.6V based on my measurement. Meaning that about 12V gets set at the Emitter, thanks to the Base-Emitter voltage drop of about 0.6V to 0.7V.

The LM334 is a three terminal adjustable current source. The amount of current through it and all series components are set by a fixed voltage (0.064V) across a resistor that connect the R and V- terminal.

Having already covered the astable multivibrator mode of the 555 timer in this "quick" series, I just add a new component, the light dependent resistor (LDR), also called the photoresistor, as the main resistor that controls the output and flashing LED.
