High-Precision Ambient
Light Sensor with Three I2C
Slave Addresses, EEPROM
and Dark Current
Compensation
Description
The NOA1312 high−precision ambient light sensor (ALS) is
designed for very high accuracy (better than ±5% tolerance) handheld
applications. The device integrates a 16−bit ADC, a 2−wire I2C digital
interface with three pin−selectable I2C slave addresses, internal clock
oscillator, EEPROM and a power down mode. A photopic optical color
filter together with built in dynamic dark current compensation and
precision calibration capability plus excellent IR and 50/60 Hz flicker
rejection enables highly accurate measurements from very low light
levels to full sunlight. The device can support simple count equals lux
readings in interrupt−driven or polling modes. The NOA1312
employs proprietary CMOS image sensing technology from
ON Semiconductor to provide large signal to noise ratio (SNR) and
wide dynamic range (DR) over the entire operating temperature range.
