4. Working Principle
The TEMT6000 light sensor senses ambient light through its internal photodiode and converts it into a corresponding electrical signal. The specific workflow is as follows:
-
Power connection : The module is connected to the power supply via VCC and GND, and supports DC 5V operation.
-
Signal output : The voltage output by the sensor changes with the light intensity; the output voltage increases when the light intensity is strong.
