An Automatic Night Light uses a photocell to detect the amount of available light in a room. Under strong light the resistance of the photocell is 1kn but goes up to 100k2 in total darkness. The photocell is put in series with a 4.7k2 resistor so as to make a voltage divider when the ends are connected between +5V and GND as shown. As it gets darker in the room, the resistance of the photocell goes up and raises the voltage on the "Sensor Voltage" line. At "dusk", the photocell has a resistance of 10k2.
