APDS-9005

APDS-9005 Miniature Surface-Mount Ambient Light Photo Sensor Data Sheet Description The APDS-9005 is a low cost analog-output ambient light photo sensor in miniature chipLED lead-free surface mount package. It consists of a photo sensor, whose spectral response is close to the CIE standard photopic observer, as show in figure 2. The APDS-9005 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 Spectral responsivity close to that of 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 Recommended operating temperature : -40°C to 85°C Vcc supply 1.8 to 5.5V Lead-free package, RoHS compliance Output linearity across wide illumination range Application Support Information The Application Engineering Group is available to assist you with the application design associated with APDS9005 ambient light photo sensor module.
