NOA2301W
Digital Proximity Sensor
with Interrupt
Description
The NOA2301W combines an advanced digital proximity sensor
and LED driver coupled with a tri−mode I2C interface with interrupt
capability in an integrated monolithic device. Multiple power
management features and very low active sensing power consumption
directly address the power requirements of battery operated mobile
phones and mobile internet devices.
The proximity sensor measures reflected light intensity with a high
degree of precision and excellent ambient light rejection. The
NOA2301W enables a proximity sensor system with a 16:1
programmable LED drive current range and a 30 dB overall proximity
detection range.
The NOA2301W is ideal for improving the user experience by
enhancing the screen interface with the ability to measure distance for
near/far detection in real time.
