APDS-9301
Miniature Ambient Light Photo Sensor
with Digital (I²C) Output
Data Sheet
Description
The APDS-9301 is Light-to-Digital Ambient Light Photo
Sensor that converts light intensity to digital signal output
capable of direct I²C interface. Each device consists of one
broadband photodiode (visible plus infrared) and one
infrared photodiode. Two integrating ADCs convert the
photodiode currents to a digital output that represents the
irradiance measured on each channel. This digital output
can be input to a microprocessor where illuminance
(ambient light level) in lux is derived using an empirical
formula to approximate the human-eye response.
