    This document provides instructions for assembling an automatic evening lamp circuit on a printed circuit board (PCB). It includes: 1) A diagram of the circuit layout on the PCB, including the power supply section separated from the rest of the circuit for safety. 2) A list of the electronic components needed, including an IC, transistor, diodes, resistors, capacitors, relay, LEDs, and LDR light dependent resistor. 3) Steps for testing the power supply section first with just the green LED, then testing the bi-stable section around the IC using a battery, before connecting the relay and testing the full circuit. 4) Warnings to take extreme precautions
