TEMT6000 Ambient Light Sensor Module, Purple PCB

The TEMT6000 ambient light sensor measures brightness the way people perceive it. Its phototransistor is filtered to approximate the human eye’s spectral response, so readings correspond to how bright a room actually looks - better than a bare LDR for lux-style measurements.

Wire the three pins (VCC, GND, SIG) and read the analog output on any microcontroller: perfect for auto-dimming displays, daylight-responsive lighting, plant-light monitoring and weather stations. The tiny board tucks into enclosures and behind panels easily.

Typical specs: ~570nm peak response, wide 60° acceptance angle, 3.3-5V supply.
