The presentation outlines a project to build a light detector circuit using a NAND gate chip at Dhaka International University. It details the components needed, how the circuit operates, and includes a truth table for the NAND gate. The light detector functions by responding to varying light levels, turning an LED on or off based on the input from a photoresistor.

5. What is Light Detector?
 A light detector circuit is a circuit that can detect
light.
 When a bright light shines on the circuit, such as
from a flashlight, the LED will turn ON.

6.  Truth Table of NAND Gate
 Each NAND gate has input pins and 1 output pin.
The following chart shows NAND gate logic, which shows
what output a NAND gate chip will produce for a set of
given inputs:

9.  How Light Detector circuit works?
•For this Circuit we use a voltage divider as an
Input of NAND gate.
•When a photoresistor is exposed to darkness,
it has very high resistance for this resistance
All the voltage will pass through the 6.8 K resistor
as a result NAND gate input will be High that means
‘1’ and as the NAND gate input is short
So basically it will get its input (1 1). So from the
Truth Table of NAND gate it means the output
will be ‘0’

10.  How Light Detector circuit works? (Cont)
•Again when a photoresistor is exposed to
brightness it’s resistance will drop dramatically.
So the voltage will fall half across the
photoresistor. For this the NAND gate Input will
gate ‘0’. From truth table we will gate the output
as high. That means ‘1’
