Digital Light Sensor ICs


ISL29001

Block Diagram


The ISL29001 is an integrated ambient light sensor with
ADC and I2C interface. With a spectral sensitivity curve
matched to that of the human eye, the ISL29001 provides
15-bit effective resolution while rejecting 50Hz and 60Hz
flicker caused by artificial light sources.

In normal operation, the ISL29001 consumes less than
300µA of supply current. A software power-down mode
controlled via the I2C interface disables all but the I2C
interface. A power-down pin is also provided, which reduces
power consumption to less than 1µA.

The ISL29001 includes an internal oscillator, which provides
100ms automatic integration periods, or can be externally
timed by I2C commands. Both the internal timing and the
illuminance resolution can be adjusted with an external
resistor.

Designed to operate on supplies from 2.5V to 3.3V, the
ISL29001 is specified for operation over the -40°C to +85°C
ambient temperature range. It is packaged in a clear 6 Ld
ODFN package.

TSL2550
AMBIENT LIGHT SENSOR
WITH SMBus INTERFACE


Description
The TSL2550 is a digital light sensor with a two-wire, SMBus
serial interface. It combines two photodiodes and a companding
analog-to-digital converter (ADC) on a single CMOS integrated
circuit to provide light measurements over an effective 12-bit
dynamic range.

The TSL2550 is designed for use with broad wavelength light
sources. One of the photodiodes (Channel 0) is sensitive to
visible and infrared light, while the second photodiode
(Channel 1) is sensitive primarily to infrared light. An integrating
ADC converts the photodiode currents to Channel 0 and
Channel 1 digital outputs. Channel 1 digital output is used to
compensate for the effect of the infrared component of ambient
light on Channel 0 digital output. The ADC digital outputs of the
two channels are used to obtain a value that approximates the
human eye response in the commonly used unit of Lux.

Feature
_ Converts Light Intensity to Digital Signal
_ Infrared Compensation to Approximate
Human Eye Response
_ Companding A/D for Wide Dynamic Range
_ Rejects 50 Hz/60 Hz Lighting Ripple
_ Two-Wire SMBus Serial Interface
_ Single Supply Operation (2.7 V to 5.5 V)
_ Low Active Power (1 mW typ)
_ Power Down Mode
_ Low-Profile Surface-Mount Package
