Photosensitive Photoresistor Light Detector Module Resistor Arduino PIC AVR USA SHIP!

      

    Description:
 

 

    This is a light sensor photoresistor module designed for easy integration with your Arduino or other microcontroller.  This module is based on a 161 Cds(cadmium-sulphide) photoresistor which varies it’s resistance base on light intensity.  This module adds a pull-down resistor and three pin header to the photoresistor for easy connection to your project.  Just connect power and ground, the third pin is an analog signal which relates to the amount of light hitting the resistor.  It works in natural or artificial light.  You just need and analog-to-digital input on your microcontroller and you are ready!
