As electronics seamlessly weave their way into our lives, sensors play an increasingly important role. Light sensors are among the simplest and cheapest sensors, allowing their inclusion into numerous ...

TSL2520/21 ambient light/flicker detection sensors designed to fit in the gap between the display screen and the chassis of a smartphone High optical sensitivity and programmable gain give phone ...

This post sponsored by Texas Instruments. The OPT3001 sensor accurately measures the intensity of light visible to the human eye regardless of light source. Its precision spectral response tightly ...

Ambient light sensors (ALSs) are photodetectors that approximate the human eye’s response to light intensity under a variety of lighting conditions and through different attenuation materials. They’re ...

With the TSL2550 sensor, the intensity of ambient light can be converted to digital signals that, in turn, can be used to control the backlighting of display screens found in portable equipment, such ...

IR sensors rely on an emitter (IR LED) and a detector (photodiode or photoresistor) to measure infrared light and convert it ...
