{"product_id":"kitronik-usb-led-strip-with-light-sensor-kt3562","title":"Kitronik USB LED Strip with Light Sensor","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Kitronik LED strip with a sensor has been specifically designed for use in custom enclosures for low-power lighting. The onboard sensor makes it the perfect choice for a night light or desk illumination that comes on when the ambient light levels drop. If desired, the sensor can be bypassed with a flick of a switch for continuous lighting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe power requirements of the board fall within the supply rating of a computer USB port (under 100mA). The PCB is approx. 50mm long, 10mm wide and has a mounting hole at one end. The board features 5 bright LEDs (Luminous Intensity ~8000mCd), a micro-USB power input, a phototransistor, and a three-way switch. The board also features GND and +5V pads for attaching alternative power sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe side-mounted slide switch has three positions: On, Off and Sense. The On and Off positions directly turn on\/off the LEDs, whereas the Sense position makes use of the end-mounted phototransistor to turn the LEDs on when the darkness threshold has been reached.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA clear gap has been left between the phototransistor and the rest of the components to allow a barrier to be placed between them in an enclosure design, ensuring no light from the LEDs can affect the sensor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecifically designed for low-power lighting projects.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe board features a light sensor, ideal for designing enclosures for night lights.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControl comes via a side-mounted 3-position switch.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition 1 = On.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition 2 = Off.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePosition 3 = Sense.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe board can be powered via a computer USB port.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe board also features GND and +5V pads for attaching alternative power sources.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe PCB features 5 LEDs (Luminous Intensity ~8000mCd) and a single mounting hole.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eContents:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 x White USB LED Strip with Sensor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 50mm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 10mm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeight: 4.5mm.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eVideo:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"youtube-video-container\" style=\"text-align: center\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"youtube-frame\" data-embed=\"b9DF3j9nsgs\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRequires:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/kitronik.co.uk\/products\/4154-1m-usb-type-a-to-micro-b-usb-noodle-cable\"\u003eUSB Lead\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eResources:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/resources.kitronik.co.uk\/pdf\/3562-kitronik-white-led-strip-sensor-datsheet.pdf\" title=\"\"\u003eDatasheet\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003cimg height=\"24\" width=\"25\" alt=\"pdf_icon.gif\" src=\"https:\/\/kitronik.co.uk\/images\/pdf_icon.gif\" style=\"vertical-align: middle\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/resources.kitronik.co.uk\/pdf\/3562-kitronik-usb-led-strip-light-sensor-teaching-notes.pdf\"\u003eTeaching Notes\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003cimg style=\"vertical-align: middle\" src=\"https:\/\/kitronik.co.uk\/images\/pdf_icon.gif\" alt=\"pdf_icon.gif\" width=\"25\" height=\"24\" data-mce-style=\"vertical-align: middle;\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/resources.kitronik.co.uk\/pdf\/3562-kitronik-usb-led-strip-light-sensor-essential-information.pdf\"\u003eEssential Information\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003cimg style=\"vertical-align: middle\" src=\"https:\/\/kitronik.co.uk\/images\/pdf_icon.gif\" alt=\"pdf_icon.gif\" width=\"25\" height=\"24\" data-mce-style=\"vertical-align: middle;\"\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/kitronik.co.uk\/blogs\/resources\/kitronik-led-strip-light-sensor-automatic-nightlight\"\u003eMake an automatic edge-lit night light\u003c\/a\u003e,\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDocuments \u0026amp;
