Please Help Me Decipher This LDR Data Sheet

[Filament]

I'm basically looking for an LDR to replace a pot in a feedback looper I'm planning to build so I'd like it to go from roughly zero resistance to about 500K - 1Meg resistance but I can't figure out what the columns in this data sheet mean for sure.

Are the min, typ and max values given resistances you'd expect to see at 10 Lux/2 foot candles and if so, what the heck is the significance of the "Lux 2850 K" heading.  That confuses me.

Also, under the "Dark" column is the resistance given the amount of resistance you'd expect to measure if the LDR was in total darkness (i.e. your foot/hand was over the "eye" blocking all the light)

Thanks in advance

Lemme just give this little nudge....there you go.

Your assmptions ae correct.  The resistance values listed are for those light intensities. The "2850K" refers to the color of the light used.  Shamelessly stolen from someone's web site:

"A key thing to remember about light is that it is usually made up of many different types (colors) of light at different wavelengths. The reading, therefore, is a result of the combined effects of all the wavelengths. A standard color can be referred to as color temperature and is expressed in degrees Kelvin. The standard color temperature for calibration of most light meters is 2856 degrees Kelvin which is more yellow than pure white."

Also, under the "Dark" column is the resistance given the amount of resistance you'd expect to measure if the LDR was in total darkness (i.e. your foot/hand was over the "eye" blocking all the light)

Yes, after  "relaxation" period of 5 seconds.

Big Dave M comes through!  Thanks man!
