TIOPT3001IDNPRQ1
Overview
The OPT3001IDNPRQ1 is an AEC-Q100 qualified digital ambient light sensor (ALS) with a spectral response that closely matches the human eye's photopic curve. It features an integrated 23-bit effective dynamic range and automatic gain ranging, allowing it to measure light levels from 0.01 lux up to 83,865 lux without manual intervention. Operating from 1.6V to 3.6V, it is designed for precision light sensing in environments with varying illumination and glass attenuation.
Why Choose This Part
The sensor provides excellent infrared (IR) rejection, ensuring accurate measurements even when placed under dark glass. Its 23-bit dynamic range eliminates the need for complex software gain-staging, while the ultra-low 1.8uA typical operating current makes it ideal for power-sensitive applications.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Interface with the device using the I2C or SMBus protocol and utilize the built-in interrupt pin for threshold-based wakeups. Developers can use the OPT3001EVM evaluation module and the TI GUI tool to rapidly characterize the sensor's performance under various optical filters or cover glass materials.
