Low Power Ambient Light and Proximity Sensor with Internal IR-LED and Digital Output
FN8419 Rev 3.00 April 28, 2016
The ISL29044A is an integrated ambient and infrared light-to-digital converter with a built-in IR LED and I2C Interface (SMBus patible). This device uses two independent ADCs for concurrently measuring ambient light and proximity in parallel. The flexible interrupt scheme is designed for minimal micro-controller utilization.
For ambient light sensor (ALS) data conversions, an ADC converts photodiode current (with a light sensitivity range up to 3200Lux) in 100ms per sample. The ADC rejects 50Hz/60Hz flicker noise caused by artificial light sources.
For proximity sensor (Prox) data conversions, the built-in driver turns on an internal infrared LED and the proximity sensor ADC converts the reflected IR intensity to digital. This ADC rejects ambient IR noise (such as sunlight) and has a 547μs conversion time.
