APDS-9306/APDS-9306-065 Miniature Surface-Mount Digital Ambient Light Sensor
Data Sheet
Description
Avago Technologies' APDS-9306/APDS-9306-065 is a lowvoltage Digital Ambient Light Sensor that converts light intensitytodigitalsignaloutputwithI2Cinterface.Itconsists ofphotodiode,ADC,oscillatorandpower-onresettoensure consistent start-up. ADCs convert the photodiode currents to a digital output and the device is capable of rejecting 50Hz and 60Hz flicker caused by artificial light sources.
The APDS-9306/APDS-9306-065 approximates the response of the human-eye providing direct read out, where the output count is proportional to ambient light level. Low light functionality enables operation behind darkened glass.
