Photo-Resistor Sensor (LDR 10MM)

Description

This is a very small light sensor . It is called light sensor or photocell or LDR (light dependent sensor) or photo-resistor. A photocell changes  resistance depending on the amount of light it is exposed to. These little sensors make great ambient light triggers (when light in the room turns on, do something).

• Max voltage : 150V
• Max power: 200mW

Dimensions

• 2 x 10 x 12mm
• 5 mm between pins
