General Description

The TSL237 light-to-frequency converter bines a silicon photodiode and a current-to-frequency converter on a single monolithic CMOS integrated circuit.

Output is a square wave (50% duty cycle) with frequency directly proportional to light intensity (irradiance) on the photodiode.

The digital output allows direct interface to a microcontroller or other logic circuitry.

Key Features

  • egration techniques. Frequency measurements provide the added benefit of averaging out random- or high-frequency variations (jitter) resulting from noise in the light signal. Resolution is limited mainly by available counter registers and allowable measurement time. Frequency measurement is well suited fo.
