Product features

Human-Eye Spectral Sensitivity: Features an NPN TEMT6000 silicon phototransistor calibrated to mimic human visual perception across a 390 nm - 700 nm peak spectrum.

Wearable LilyPad Form Factor: Engineered on a circular, washable PCB layout with generous sew tabs designed for conductive thread stitching into smart textiles and e-wearables.

Analog Voltage Signal Telemetry: Generates an analog voltage output directly proportional to ambient illuminance, simplifying brightness graphing on microcontroller ADC pins.

Wide Operating Voltage Capability: Operates efficiently across 3.3V - 5.0V power rails, ensuring seamless compatibility with LilyPad Arduino, ESP32, and wearable microcontrollers.

Low Power Draw Design: Built with minimal current consumption in mind to maximize battery life in portable, body-worn smart garments and IoT prototypes.

Materials and care

Board & Component Material: Washable, thin FR-4 glass-epoxy PCB with smooth rounded edges, large silver-plated sew pads, and surface-mount TEMT6000 sensor IC.

Technical Specifications:

Peak Sensitivity Wavelength: 570 nm (390 nm - 700 nm visible spectrum).

Operating Voltage: 3.3V - 5.0V DC.

Output Signal: Linear Analog Voltage.

Color: Purple PCB with White LilyPad Silk Screen & Gold/Silver Sew Pads.

Usage Advice: Stitch VCC, GND, and OUT to your wearable controller using conductive thread; ensure the optical sensing window faces outward toward ambient light.

Maintenance: Hand-wash e-textile projects gently in mild soap water after removing battery power; ensure complete drying before reapplying power.

Merchandising tips

Essential E-Textiles & Smart Clothing Sensor: Position as the go-to ambient light transducer for interactive costumes, smart jackets, safety wearables, and wearable art projects.

Highlight Conductive Thread Stitching: Emphasize how large, rounded sew tabs allow quick, solderless stitching into soft circuits using conductive thread or standard wires.

Recommended Cross-Sell Add-ons: Pair with TEMT6000 Light Sensor Module, GY-30 BH1750FVI Digital Light Intensity Illumination Sensor Module, 4Pin Photoresistor Light Detection Sensor, and ESD antistatic mat 50x40CM PCB Welding Mat.

Featured Collection Star: Display prominently on your Light Sensor Module collection page as your standard wearable light sensor.
