Light Depending Resistor (with PCB) - LDR

A Light Depending Resistor (LDR) is an electronic component that can detect and respond to changes in light levels. It consists of a semiconductor material that exhibits a variable resistance depending on the amount of light it is exposed to. This LDR is mounted on a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) for easy integration into electronic circuits. When the light intensity increases, the resistance of the LDR decreases, allowing more current to flow through it. Conversely, when the light intensity decreases, the resistance increases, reducing the current flow. This makes LDRs useful in applications such as automatic lighting systems, light-sensitive alarms, and photography equipment. The PCB allows for convenient soldering and connections, making it suitable for hobbyist projects and professional applications alike.
