Ambient Light Sensor
Converting Photocurrent to Voltage
ALS-PDIC144-6C/L378
Note:
1. The output voltage (Vout) is the product of photocurrent (IPH) and loading resistor (RL)
2. A right loading resistor shall be chosen to meet the requirement of maximum ambient light
and output saturation voltage:
Vout(max.) = Iout(max.) × RL ≦ Vout(saturation)=Vcc-0.8V
3. To avoid 60Hz ripple from fluorescent lights, suggest that time constant must be greater than
0.5second:
RL x CL > 0.5 (empirical data)
