SKU: AF-161 · MPN: 161

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 of the photo cell (either one, its symmetric) to power (for example 5V) and the o...

SKU: DF-DFR0185-O

Electroluminescent (EL) wire is a thin, flexible, phosphor-coated wire that glows when a high AC voltage is applied. This 1-metre length of orange EL wire is perfect for adding a vibrant neon-style glow to costumes, props, signage, and decorative projects. EL wire operates at very low current, m...

SKU: EF-EF10114

A 1-metre length of green electroluminescent (EL) wire that emits a bright, even glow when powered by an EL inverter (sold separately). Flexible, lightweight, and cool to the touch, EL wire is perfect for costumes, signage, decorations, and ambient lighting effects. Terminated with a JST PH conn...

SKU: TB-XC4574

The light sensor, also known as the light dependent resistor (LDR). Typically, the resistance of the light sensor will decrease when the ambient light intensity increases.   Linksprite Page   Specifications Required Supply Voltage 3.3V-5V Linker Kit Compatible Sensor Outputs ...

Its compact design and easy operation make it an ideal choice for electronic projects and applications. Whether for robotics, automation equipment, or counting systems, this module pro...

SKU: AF-5913 · MPN: ADA5913

The Adafruit STEMMA Reflective Photo Interrupt Sensor uses a TCRT1000 right-angle optical module to detect reflective surfaces. An onboard IR LED emits light, and when an object reflects it back to the IR phototransistor, the output pin drops from high toward 0V — making it easy to detect the pre...
