Light Sensor Analog TEMT6000

1 USD

The analog light sensor TEMT6000 is a bipolar phototransistor (transistor controlled by the amount of light). It works more precisely than photoresistors. The sensor has an analog output. Its use in conjunction with the ADC built into the Arduino gives fairly accurate readings. An external ADC can be used to measure smaller values. The module has a sensitivity angle of ± 60 °. Working voltage: 5 V. Working temperature: -40 to +85 ° C. Consumption current: up to 20 mA. The sensor is set to work with visible radiation. Recorded radiation wavelength: from 360 to 970 nm (visible radiation limits: 380 and 780 nm).
