  • pooljuhtelement, mille takistus väheneb valguse, infrapuna- või ultraviolettkiirguse toimel
  • type of resistor whose resistance decreases when the intensity of light increases
  • passive component that decreases resistance with respect to receiving luminosity (light) on the component's sensitive surface
fototakisti preferred
Usage examples
  • Fototakisti takistus väheneb juhusliku valguse intensiivsuse suurenemisega, ehk teisisõnu, sellel on fotojuhtivus, mille tõttu saab fototakistit rakendada valgustundlikes detektorahelates ning valgusaktiveeritud ja tumedalt aktiveeritud lülitusahelates, mis toimivad takistuspooljuhina.
fotoresistor
photoresistor preferred
Usage examples
  • The resistance of a photoresistor decreases with increase in incident light intensity; in other words, it exhibits photoconductivity. A photoresistor can be applied in light-sensitive detector circuits and light-activated and dark-activated switching circuits acting as a resistance semiconductor.
