ENGR 1181
Today's Learning Objectives
 After today's class, students will be able to:
• Describe and build both a calibration and solar
meter circuit
• Convert decimal values to binary values
• Discuss how a potentiometer works
• Explain how a photodiode light sensor works
• Compare a pictorial image of a circuit to a
schematic wiring diagram
• Use a Photodiode Light Sensor and a Binary
Voltmeter circuit to measure the intensity of light
(in Watts/m2)
Solar Energy Meter
In lab today, you will build a solar energy meter circuit to
measure the energy intensity from a light source.

TrimPot – varies input voltage
 Total resistance (Pin 1 to Pin 3) = 10 kOhms
 Resistance at Pin 2 varies by turning the small adjustment screw
(0 to +5V on Pin 2)
 Use it to change the input voltage to the Binary Voltmeter circuit

8-BIT BINARY DISPLAY
• D7 is the Most Significant Bit (MSB).
D0 is the Least Significant Bit (LSB)
• The 8-bit binary number can be
converted to a decimal number using
a formula

Task 3 – How the Light Sensor Works
• The Photodiode converts light
photons to a current
Isolar
Amplifier
Photodiode
V Output
• The Amplifier converts the current to
a voltage
• The voltage output of the Light
Sensor Board is proportional to the
intensity of sunlight (Isolar, Watts /
m2)
The calibration equation for the Solar Light Meter is:
Isolar = 5.0 Ndecimal (Watts / m2)
Use the Solar Energy Meter to measure
the intensity of a light source
Comment on shading LEDS and Blinking on least significant digits
 Place the spotlight in
the ring stand so that the
front of the bulb is 13
inches away from the
top of the Light Sensor.
 Make sure that the
Photodiode is directly in
the center of the beam.
 Measure the Intensity
of the light source at
distances of 23, 19, 15,
11 and 7 inches.
