b) To design a printed circuit board layout of IR sensor module circuit using CAD tool
(Eagle).
Components Used:
Theory:
4. Photo diode: These diodes also have an anode and cathode just like normal LED.
But, unlike LED’s these do not emit light. Instead, when they detect light they allow
some current to flow through it. The amount of current that flows through the
Photodiode is directly proportional the amount of light detected by the Photodiode.
Due to this property of Photodiode, it is fairly used in situations where light has to be
detected. It is also commonly used with IR transmitter (IRLED) to form an IR pair
and used in applications like object detection, counter, encoder and much more.

5. Potentiometers: Resistors are also classified based on how much current it can
allow; this is called Power (wattage) rating. The higher the power rating the bigger
the resistor gets and it can also more current. For potentiometers the power rating is
0.3W and hence can be used only for low current circuits.
