Good value

Works well for the price. Just note that you need to solder the header pins yourself if they aren't pre-attached.

5 FAQ

Q: Is the pinout standard across batches?

A: Yes, the pins are typically arranged as VCC, GND, and OUT. Please check the silkscreen on your board to confirm.

Q: Does this work with 3.3V logic boards?

A: Yes, the module operates from 2.7V to 5.5V, so it is compatible with 3.3V systems like ESP32 or Raspberry Pi.

Q: What library should I use for this?

A: No specific library is needed. You can read the output pin using standard analog read functions in your IDE.

Q: Can it measure direct sunlight?

A: It can detect sunlight, but direct exposure to intense sun may saturate the output. Indirect measurement is recommended.

Q: Is there a digital output available?

A: No, this specific module provides only an analog voltage output proportional to light intensity.
