Size

This light-dependent resistor (LDR) senses ambient light with 100–200kΩ dark resistance dropping to <10kΩ in bright conditions—simple analog input for auto-lights or dusk detectors. Ideal for first-year engineering students pairing with Arduino analog pins for environmental monitoring.

CdS element; max 150VDC/50mW; response time ~20–100ms; 5–10mm epoxy-coated disc (GL5528-style). Voltage divider circuit: VCC + LDR + fixed resistor to GND, read junction.

Performance

  • Dark (1 lux): 100–200kΩ.
  • Light (10 lux): 10–20kΩ.
  • Max power: 50mW/150VDC.
