This sensor is connect to analog pin #A5 and will read between 0 and 1023 with higher values corresponding to higher light levels. A reading of about 300 is common for most indoor light levels.

Circuit Playground is here, and it's the best way to practice programming on real hardware. No soldering or sewing required! Circuit Playground features an ATmega32u4 micro-processor, just like our popular Flora. It also is round and has alligator-clip pads around it. You can power it from USB, a AAA battery pack, or Lipoly for advanced users . Program your code into it, then take it on the go. ATmega32u4 Processor, running at 3.3V and 8MHz MicroUSB port for programming and debugging with Arduino IDE USB port can act like serial port, keyboard, mouse, joystick or MIDI Adafruit Industries Page 4 of 35 Circuit Playground has built-in USB support. Built in USB means you plug it in to program it, it just shows up - all you need is a Micro-B USB cable, no additional purchases are needed! With the new Arduino IDE, it takes only a few seconds to add support The Circuit Playground has USB HID support, so it can act like a mouse or keyboard to attach directly to computers. Here's some of the great goodies baked in: 10 x mini NeoPixels, each one can display any rainbow color 1 x Motion sensor LIS3DH triple-axis accelerometer with tap detection, free-fall detection 1 x Temperature sensor thermistor 1 x Light sensor phototransistor 1 x Sound sensor MEMS microphone 1 x Mini speaker magnetic buzzer 2 x Push buttons, left and right 1 x Slide switch 8 x alligator-clip friendly input/output pins Adafruit Industries Page 5 of 35 Includes I2C, UART, and 4 pins that can do analog inputs/PWM output All 8 pads can act as capacitive touch inputs Green "ON" LED so you know its powered Red "#13" LED for basic blinking Reset button Adafruit Industries Page 6 of 35 Pinouts Circuit Playground is chock-full of blinkies, sensors and electronic goodies. Since there's a lot going on, we're going to look at each piece one by one and talk about what it is and how to use it. This is a technically-oriented description for the Developer Edition and the people who are planning on writing code for Circuit Playground GPIO + Capacitive Touch Pads Adafruit Industries Page 7 of 35 All 8 non-power pads around the circuit playground have the ability to act as capacitive touch pads. Each pad has a 1Mohm resistor between it and digital pin You can toggle this pin to control whether the resistor is a pullup or pulldown or floating. Note that this means that all the pads have a 2Mohm resistance between them. You can also of course just use those pads for GPIO, we expose the hardware Serial TX + RX , hardware I2C SDA + SCL and 4 gpio pins that can also do analog readings. They are the same exact pins as those on the Flora Adafruit Industries |
