## Description

The TEMT6000x01 is a compact ambient light sensor that operates as an NPN phototransistor. The more light that hits the sensor, the stronger the base bias, producing an analog output proportional to the ambient light level. Its spectral response is closely matched to the human eye, making it ideal for visible light detection. Simple to use with just an analog input — connect to any microcontroller's ADC pin to get a light level reading. No special libraries or digital protocols required. Key Features Analog Output – Simple connection to any ADC pin, no libraries needed NPN Phototransistor – Output current proportional to ambient light intensity Human Eye Response – Spectral sensitivity matched to visible light perception Compact Package – Small surface-mount form factor Specifications Sensor Type – NPN phototransistor Part Number – TEMT6000x01 Output – Analog (current proportional to light) Spectral Response – Visible light, matched to human eye Ideal For Ambient light level detection Automatic display brightness adjustment Light-triggered projects and automation Arduino and microcontroller prototyping Package Contents 1× TEMT6000x01 Ambient Light Sensor
