Required parts: Solar cell, 100 ohm resistor (brown black brown gold), yellow led, 

microcontroller (µC), wire jumper.

 

How it works

:  The controller 

requires 2

-

5V to operate. This 

voltage is supplied by the solar 

panel.  The microcontroller is 

pre

-

programmed with software 

that turns the output on and off 

in a loop.  The signal is output 

via pin 4.  When the output is 

on, current flows via the led and 

the resistor, hereby causing the 

led to light.
