This motion sensor LED ceiling light board has been designed using 4 white LEDs each of 1-3W, PIR sensor module, Atmega328 microcontroller, low ohm IRLR7843 MOSFET, and few other components. The PIR sensor detects the infra-red rays emitted by human motion within the detection area and switches on the 4 white LEDs for 10 seconds. The project helps in energy-saving applications and new green building projects. Detecting distance: 1 to 20 feet. Detecting angle: 360 degrees. Installation height 2-15 feet. 2 mounting holes are provided to mount this board. It is advisable to use this board indoors.

Installation height 2-15 feet. 2 mounting holes are provided to mount this board. It is advisable to use this board indoors.The operation of this circuit is simple, the motion sensor provides a TTL output pulse when it detects the human presence, then the ATmega328 microcontroller detects the trigger on digital in D12 and sets the digital pin D3 high for 10 seconds, this high signal triggers the MOSFET which drives power to 4 LEDs in parallel. Resistors R2 and R5 act as current limiting resistors, U1 is a 5V regulator that provides 5V DC to the microcontroller and sensor from an input supply 12V DC. The operating power supply is 9-12V DC and its draws 500mA of current. The project tested with 3W white LEDs, but any other LED can be used, but take care of current limiting resistor R2 and R5 respectively to LEDs current requirements. CN1 4 pin male header is provided for power input, CN2 SIP8 connector provided for bootloader burning and programming using Arduino IDE.”
