APDS-9004
Miniature Surface-Mount Ambient Light Photo Sensor
Data Sheet
Description
The APDS-9004 is a low cost analog-output ambient
light photo sensor in miniature chipLED lead-free,
reverse surface mount package. It consists of a photo
sensor, whose spectral response is close to CIE standard
photopic observer. Hence, it provides an excellent
responsivity that is close to the response of human
eyes, as shown in Figure 2. It is suitable for portable
applications with its ultra small package design.
The APDS-9004 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.
