Abstract-This paper outlines the design and implementation of a temperature indicator using LM35 temperature sensor and LED without the use of Arduino. The LM35 sensor provides an accurate temperature reading, and the LED visually represents the temperature level. This paper covers the paper’s objectives, components, circuit design, and working principle. The paper provides a captivating blend of temperature monitoring, creating an engaging and informative visual display of changing environmental conditions. This innovative circuit employs a thermistor (LM35), to capture real time temperature data. The sensor’s output is then meticulouslyprocessedbyanintegratedcircuit (IC) that intricately controls a series of vibrant LEDs. What makes this paper truly enticing is its ability to transform mundane data into a mesmerizing visual spectacle. As temperatures rise or fall, the LEDs gracefully light up or dim, creatinga dynamicandeye-catchingdisplay. It canbeusedas a learning tool, or simplya decorativetemperature indicator. The “Temperature indicator LED circuit” paper serves as an excellent example of data visualization in a way that is both accessible and visually captivating.

WhentheLM35outputexceeds0.5volts,itlinkstoPin3of the Op-amp LM358[17]. By establishing the reference voltageat0.5voltsonPin2ofLM35,thevoltageatPin3 (the non-inverting input) surpasses that at Pin 2 (the inverting input). Consequently, the output of the LM35 operational amplifier (PIN 1) rises to a high state. The equations governing the operational amplifier output (Vout)areasfollows:

a) Vout= (R2/R1+R2) * Vin

(Here R2 is the second part of the potentiometer:2kΩ First part of the potentiometer is 10+8=18kΩ)

b) Vout= (2/18+2) * 5=0.5v

4. RESULT ANALYSIS

Here in this paper Without the LM358 component in the simulation, the output behaviour changes. When the temperatureremainsbelow50°C,theLM358remainsinactive, keeping Q1 off. Consequently, Q2's base receives power through R2, leading to the illumination of the green LED. However,oncethe temperaturesurpasses50°C,theLM358 generatesanoutput,causingQ1toactivateandtheredLEDto lightup.ThisactionresultsinQ2beingunabletoreceivebias, causing it to turn off. Hence, the paper operates with a thresholdtemperatureof50°C,signifiedbythesechangesin LEDstatus.
