Using an LDR, this Philips circuit directly activates a relay when light strikes the sensor. The relay is 45 V with 20k coil resistance. The 220 nF capacitor must be polyester for 400 V.
This circuit sensor is an NTC with a resistance of the order of 2k. The SCR can be from the TIC...
The load current can be adjusted up to about 1 A. The transistor can be TIP32 or TIP42. The...
