Technical parameters

Power
Maximum Operating VoltageUp to 250 V DC (varies by model)
Power DissipationTypically 100 mW continuous (depending on ambient temperature and packaging)
Environment and package
Temperature Range-25 °C to +75 °C for plastic versions; wider for TO-can types
Other
Dark ResistanceTypically 0.5 MΩ to >10 MΩ (measured after 10–15 s in darkness)
Light ResistanceRanges from ~300 Ω to 20 kΩ at 10 lux, depending on model
NSL photoresistors are available in two configurationsa hermetically sealed TO-can package for high-reliability environments and a two-pin plastic-coated ceramic header for cost-sensitive or compact applications. Both versions provide excellent durability, moisture resistance, and stable electrical characteristics over time.
Packaging OptionsTO-5/TO-8 hermetically sealed metal can or two-pin plastic-coated ceramic header
Response TimeRise and fall times between 30 ms and 100 ms (approximate)
Spectral Response400 nm to 700 nm (peak at ~550 nm)
