Product Description
This LDR Light Dependent Resistor (LDR Photorésistance) is an optoelectronic transducer for light intensity monitoring. This sensor provides resistance-to-illuminance conversion. It is used for characterizing photoconductivity and developing light-sensitive switching circuits in STEM research and industrial electronic sensing curricula. Note: LDR sensors are typically cadmium sulfide (CdS)-based components — exact composition has not been independently verified for this listing; handle and dispose of per standard electronic component and e-waste practice, and avoid ingestion.
