APDS-9008

APDS-9008 Miniature Surface-Mount Ambient Light Photo Sensor Data Sheet Description The APDS-9008 is a low cost analog-output ambient light photo sensor in miniature chipLED lead-free surface mount package. It consists of a spectrally suited photo sensor, which provides excellent responsivity that is close to the response of the human eyes, as show in figure 2. The APDS-9008 is ideal for applications in which the measurement of ambient light is used to control display backlighting. Mobile appliances such as the mobile phones and PDAs that draw heavy current from display backlighting will benefit from incorporating these photo sensor products in their designs by reducing power consumption significantly. Features Excellent responsivity - Close responsivity to the human eye Miniature ChipLED Leadfree surface-mount package Height – 0.55 mm Width – 1.60 mm Depth – 1.50 mm Low sensitivity variation across various light sources Operating temperature : -40°C to 85°C Vcc supply 1.6 to 5.5V Lead-free package, RoHS compliance Output linearity across wide illumination range High output saturation voltage Application Support Information The Application Engineering Group is available to assist you with the application design associated with APDS-9008 ambient light photo sensor module.
