type
Low cost dual-element sensor with standard size
CdS photoconductive cells utilize photoconductive effects in semiconductors that decrease their resistance when illuminated by light.
These sensors are non-polar resistive elements with spectral response characteristics close to the human eye (luminous efficiency), thus making
their operating circuits simple and small.
Dual-element sensors can be used to compare the signal from each element or perform signal processing by using a separation circuit.

*1: All characteristics are measured after exposure to light (100 to 500 lx) for one to two hours.
*2: The light source is a standard tungsten lamp operated at a color temperature of 2856 K.
*3: Measured 10 seconds after shutting off the 10 lx light.
*4: Typical gamma characteristics (within ±0.10 variations) between 100 lx to 10

*5: The rise time is the time required for the sensor resistance to reach 63 % of the saturated conductance level (when fully
illuminated). The fall time is the time required for the sensor resistance to decay from the saturated conductance level to
37 %.
