Graph of resistance versus light level. LDR Sunram CdS spectral response with visible light spectrum superimposed. The common CdS (cadmium sulfide) LDRs have peak spectral response at about 550 nm which is the green region of the visible spectrum.

2024年4月20日 · In your exam, you must be able to describe the applications of thermistors in circuits including thermostats. Remember the shape of the temperature-resistance graph, as it is a common exam question to draw and interpret. The graph should not touch the x-axis, as it implies 0 resistance which is only possible in something called a superconductor.

2024年11月14日 · Graph of light intensity and resistance for an LDR. LDRs can be used as light sensors, so, they are useful in circuits which automatically switch on lights when it gets dark, for example, street lighting and garden lights. In the dark, its resistance is very large (millions of ohms) In bright light, its resistance is small (tens of ohms)

2024年3月23日 · An LDR is a variable resistor that changes its resistance according to the intensity of the light falling on its surface. As light intensity increases the resistance of an LDR or light-dependent resistor decreases. Hence it is called a light sensor. In simple words, it is a type of sensor that senses the intensity of the surrounding light.

LDRs are used to measure the light level. They are slow to react so they are not used with fibre-optic or other optical communications systems. They are used in light meters for photography and for systems that turn on lights when it gets dark. The LDR is normally used with a fixed resistor.

2021年11月24日 · You can use the current and p.d. data to calculate the resistance of the LDR for different uncovered areas (i.e. light intensities). Then plot a graph of the uncovered area against resistance. Your results should match the relationship shown in Figure 2.

This is a graph between the resistance of the LDR and with change in the intensity of the incident light called illumination. As LDR is not linear, the relationship forms a curve as shown in the figure below. The x-axis represents illumination in lux while the y …

Know the current-voltage curve I-V graph for an LDR is linear i.e. it is an ohmic conductor at constant temperature. Know how an LDR is used to control the output of lights i.e. acts as on off light meter.

What is Light Dependent Resistor? An electronic component like LDR or light-dependent resistor is responsive to light. Once light rays drop on it, then immediately the resistance will be changed. The resistance values of an LDR may change over several orders of magnitude. The resistance value will be dropped when the light level increases.
