Simple Light Sensor Board

The Simple Light Sensor Board is a versatile solution for adding light detection to your electronics projects. It's a complete module that provides both analog and digital outputs, giving you the flexibility to create a wide range of applications. Whether you're building an automatic lighting system, a plant-monitoring device, or a smart home alarm, this sensor board provides the reliable light detection that every maker needs.

The onboard LM393 comparator and adjustable potentiometer make this board perfect for creating precise light-activated triggers. You can easily set a specific light threshold for the digital output, allowing you to trigger an action when the light level crosses a certain point. This is ideal for beginners who want a simple on/off signal, as well as for advanced users who need to fine-tune the sensor's sensitivity for their specific application. Perfect for students learning about sensors, hobbyists building interactive projects, or engineers prototyping new devices.

What makes this light sensor board special is its all-in-one design, combining a LDR with all the necessary circuitry on a compact module. This sensor will not give you detailed lux readings, just a simple analog value proportional to the amount of light. As with all our products, it's open-source, with all design files available for you to modify and adapt. Plus, with our 2-year warranty and technical support, you can be confident in your purchase.
