Description This Light Dependant Resistor (LDR) can be used to easily measure ambient light with your Arduino or other board with analog input. You will need to set this up as a voltage divider with a resistor of a...

SKU: LB-24-LIGHT | Brand: Little Bird

Light-dependent resistors are electronic components whose resistance changes with light intensity. They are also called LDRs, photoresistors, or photoconductors.   It has four pins:3.3V  : While 'VCC'...

SKU: AF-2831 | Brand: Adafruit

This Photo Transistor Light Sensor is a simple sensor that detects ambient light. It's kind of the opposite of an LED - when light hits the little chip inside, it induces current to flow from the long pin...

SKU: AF-161 | Brand: Adafruit

CdS cells are little light sensors. As the squiggly face is exposed to more light, the resistance goes down. When its light, the resistance is about 5-10KΩ, when dark it goes up to 200KΩ. To use, connect one side o...
