1 low power ambient light and proximity sensor with enhanced infrared rejection ISL29147 the ISL29147 is a low power ambient light sensor (als) and proximity (prox) sensor. it has a built-in ir-led for the proximity function. the als func tion measures the amount of light (in the visible spectrum) incident on the ISL29147. the als function has a programmable ambient ir-rejection, which allows fine tuning of light source variations and is ideal for light sensor applications under dark protective glass. the als provides a 12-bit measurement. a passive optical filter removes unwanted wavelengths (ir or ultraviolet) to ensure accurate als measurement. the proximity function includes a new offset adjustment to compensate for the ir light re flected off the inside of the protective glass cover and back to the ISL29147 sensor. this offset adjustment allows the sensor to compensate for these internal reflections and preserve the dynamic range of the proximity measurement. the built-in current-driver pulses an external infrared led at a programmed current for 90s. the infrared light that is reflected and received by the ISL29147 is digitized by an 8-bit adc. the proximity sensor also has a passive optical filter designed to pass ir and reject visible wavelengths. the ISL29147 provides a hardware pin to indicate an interrupt event. the interrupt pin saves po wer as the host micro-controller can ?wake-up? on an interrupt event and does not need to poll the device for an interrupt event. the interrupt generator is user configurable and provides several options for als and prox trigger configurations. the ISL29147 supports an smbus compatible i 2 c interface for configuration and control. features ? internal ir-led and sensor for a complete solution ? ideal for applications un der dark or tinted glass ? enhanced ambient sunlight rejection to 40k lux ? programmable proximity sleep time between proximity measurements optimizes power consumption ? hardware interrupt - no polling required ? programmable ir compensation to fine-tune als performance for various glass compositions ? programmable ir led drive current to 250ma ? operates from 2.25v to 3.63v v dd ? power-down i dd, typical 0.2a dc ? tiny 2.40x4x1.2 (mm) optical co-package applications ? display dimming and adjustment - mobile devices: smart phones, pda, gps - computing: monitors, laptops, notebooks - picture frames, tablet-pcs, lcd-tv ? object detection - touchscreen disabling -smart power-saving figure 1. typical applications circuit 5 6 7 8 4 3 2 1 vdd scl gnd led+ sda int irdr led- ISL29147 c 1 , c 2 : 1f ceramic 10v capacitor int sda scl smbus master v dd _irled v dd c 2 1f c 1 1f vdd_pullup u1 int pullups scl, sda and r 1 100 ? r 1 : 100 ? 5% resistor september 16, 2013 fn8409.0 caution: these devices are sensitive to electrostatic discharge; follow proper ic handling procedures. 1-888-intersil or 1-888-468-3774 | copyright intersil americas llc 2013. all rights reserved intersil (and design) is a trademark owned by intersil corporation or one of its subsidiaries. all other trademarks mentioned are the property of their respective owners.
