TSL25413

TSL2541 ALS, Light-to-Digital Sensor The TSL2541 is a very-high sensitivity light-to-digital converter General Description that transforms light intensity into a digital signal output capable of direct IC interface. The ALS sensor features 2 output channels, a visible channel and an IR channel. The visible channel has a photodiode with a UV and IR blocking filter whereas the IR channel has a photodiode with an IR pass filter. Each channel has a dedicated data converter producing a 16-bit output. This architecture allows applications to accurately measure ambient light which enables devices to calculate illuminance to control a display backlight.
