Design And Construction Of A Smart Emergency Light

ABSTRACT

An emergency light can come in handy at all sorts of time, especially when there’s a power outage. This work is on a white LED-based smart emergency light that automatically turns on when mains power supply fails.

The circuit consists of power supply, battery charger and switching sections. The power supply and charger sections are built around transformer X1, diodes D1 and D2, transistor T1, resistors R1 and R2, and zener diode ZD1. The power supply for the circuit is derived from AC mains by using 9V-0-9V, 250mA step-down transformer X1. Diodes D1 and D2 rectify the AC voltage into DC voltage, which is smoothed by filter capacitor C1. The unregulated DC voltage is regulated by transistor T1 along with resistor R1 and zener diode ZD1. The regulated DC voltage, via resistor R2, charges the lead-acid battery.
