About this product

GL5539 is a 5 mm light-dependent resistor (LDR), also called a photoresistor, whose resistance decreases as the light falling on it increases. Listed with a 30-90kΩ resistance range and fast response, it is used in automatic lighting, light-detection and security alarm projects with a microcontroller or a voltage divider.

How do I read it with a microcontroller?

Connect it in a voltage divider with a fixed resistor and read the midpoint voltage on an analog input. Choose the fixed resistor so the reading changes clearly across the light levels you need to detect.

Should I measure it myself before setting a threshold?

Yes. Resistance depends on the lighting conditions, so the listed range is only a guide. Measure the LDR under your own lighting before setting a threshold in code.
