DFRobot Gravity Analog Ambient Light Sensor for Arduino

Here comes DFRobot’s new Analog Ambient Light Sensor for Arduino or Raspberry Pi. Brand new design and much more convenient to use. This sensor helps you to detect the light density and reflect the analog voltage signal back to the Arduino controller. You can set the threshold of voltage level to trig other units on the Arduino project.

We also use the environmental PT550 light sensor and it is more sensitive to light than the normal one. Place check following improvement we made. We always devote ourselves to bring a better user experience.

To ease the difficulty of using this light sensor,  a Gravity Interface is adapted to allow plug&play.  The IO sensor shield is the best match for this sound sensor connecting to your Arduino. This sensor can work at 3.3V which makes it compatible with Raspberry Pi, Intel Edison, Joule, and curie.

Features:

1. Wide voltage range from 3.3V to 5V
2. Standard assembling structure (two 3mm holes with multiple of 5cm(1.97″) as interval)
3. Easily recognitive interfaces of sensors (“A” for analog and “D” for digital)
4. Icons to simply illustrate sensor function
5. High-quality connector
6. Immersion gold surface
