Ambient light sensor 0-200klx

This ambient light sensor has a transparent semi-spherical casing that allows for improved light collecting performance. It supports a detection range of 0 to 200klx and uses I2C communication. The spectral response of the on-chip photodiode mimics the perception of ambient light by the human eye and blocks IR and UV radiation. An adaptive gain block automatically selects the appropriate lux range to optimize the count/lux. This sensor is ideal for use in smartphones, smart vehicle lights, smart incubators, and similar applications.
