Connection Procedure:
Step
1: Connect the positive terminal of the
solar panel (Pin 51) to one end of the resistor 220Ω (R2, Pin 3).
Step
2: Connect the other end of resistor
220Ω (R2, Pin 4) to the Anode of the LED (Pin 43).
Step
3: Connect the Cathode of the LED (Pin
44) to the negative terminal (Pin 52) of the solar panel.
Step
4: As sunlight (or any source of light)
falls on the solar panel, it generates electrical energy, causing the LED to
glow.
Explanation:
In this project, we aim to demonstrate how
solar energy can be harnessed to illuminate an LED. By connecting a solar panel
to an LED in series, we can witness the conversion of light energy into
electrical energy. The solar panel, comprising photovoltaic cells, directly
converts sunlight into electrical voltage through the photovoltaic effect. As
sunlight falls on the solar panel, it generates electrical energy, causing the
LED to glow. This project showcases the practical application of solar energy
in powering everyday devices.
