Window with Light Guide Design
If a smaller window is desired while maintaining a wide
effective viewing angle of the ISL29013, a cylindrical piece of
transparent plastic is needed to trap the light and then focus
and guide the light on to the device. Hence, the name light
guide or also known as light pipe. The pipe should be placed
directly on top of the device with a distance of d1 = 0.5mm to
achieve peak performance. The light pipe should have a
minimum of 1.5mm in diameter to ensure that whole area of
the sensor will be exposed. See Figure 5.
