Miniature Surface-Mount Ambient Light Photo Sensor Data Sheet Description The APDS-9005 is a low cost analog-output ambient light photo sensor in miniature chipLED lead-free surface mount package. It consists of a photo sensor, whose spectral response is close to the CIE standard photopic observer, as show in figure 2. The APDS-9005 is ideal for applications in which the measurement of ambient light is used to control display backlighting. Mobile appliances such as the mobile phones and PDAs that draw heavy current from display backlighting will benefit from incorporating these photo sensor products in their designs by reducing power consumption significantly.
