TEMT6000 Ambient Light Sensor Module — Analog, Arduino
The TEMT6000 ambient light sensor module measures ambient light intensity with a spectral response closely matching the human eye. Outputs an analog voltage proportional to light intensity — connect directly to an Arduino analog input. Ideal for automatic display brightness control and light-dependent automation.
Key Specifications
- Sensor: TEMT6000 | Output: Analog voltage
- Spectral response: 570nm peak (human eye matched)
- Supply voltage: 3.3–5V | Current: 20mA max
- Angle: ±60° half-angle
- Compliance: RoHS compliant
Why Choose This?
- ✅ Human eye spectral response — measures perceived brightness accurately
- ✅ Analog output — direct connection to Arduino analog input
- ✅ Wide angle — ±60° for broad ambient light capture
- ✅ Simple integration — no library needed, read analogRead() directly
Typical Applications
- Automatic display brightness control
- Smart lighting and daylight harvesting
- Light-activated relay and automation
- Arduino weather station light measurement
