GL10528 Photoresistor Sensor LDR 10-20KΩ 10mm

The GL10528 Photoresistor Sensor LDR 10-20KΩ 10mm is a light-dependent resistor that changes its resistance based on the intensity of light it detects. It typically has a diameter of 10mm, providing a broad light-sensitive surface area. Made usually from cadmium sulfide (CdS), its resistance decreases as light intensity increases, ranging from several megaohms in darkness to a few hundred ohms under bright light. It features high sensitivity, fast response, and good reliability, operating within a temperature range of approximately -30°C to +70°C. The LDR can handle maximum voltages up to around 250V and power ratings of up to 200mW depending on specific variants. Common applications include light sensing for automatic lighting controls, street lamps, security systems, camera exposure control, robotics, and various consumer electronics requiring ambient light
