Description LDR Photosensitive Resistor 12mm

An LDR photoresistor 12mm is a special component in electronic circuits. This resistor adapts to the amount of light in the environment. In the dark, the resistance shoots up to around 1MOhm, which means that it allows almost no current to pass through. As soon as light falls on it, the resistance drops to a range between 10KOhm and 20KOhm. This makes it an ideal component for projects where light control is crucial. The LDR is compact with dimensions of only 12.0 x 2.0 mm, making it easy to fit into various designs. It can be safely used with a maximum voltage of 150V DC, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. These properties make the LDR photoresistor an essential element for projects that react to light conditions.
