RGB Digital Light Sensor
RGB light sensors help product manufacturers improve both mobile and fixed (TV) viewing for users. Intersil’s ISL29125 RGB digital light sensor includes on-chip IR filtering technology and high angular response in a 1.65 mm x 1.65 x 0.75 mm form factor. With an operating voltage range of 2.25 V to 3.63 V, the sensor delivers […]
Kit Provides Sensors and Sensor Fusion Development Tools
Called a development ecosystem with sensor fusion technology, Texas Instruments’ Sensor Hub BoosterPack is a plug-in daughter card for its ARM Cortex-M4 microcontroller (MCU). TivaWare software shipped with board enables measurement of pressure, humidity, ambient and infrared (IR) light along with temperature and motion (including acceleration, orientation and compass). Sensors on the board include: • […]
Single IR-Based Sensor Performs Ambient Light and Proximity Sensing
At Convergence 2010 in Detroit, Intersil’s Niyant Patel explains how a single infrared (IR) sensor can provide both ambient light and proximity sensing for vehicles. The Intersil ISL29028 ambient light and proximity sensor operates linearly down to 1 millilux and can use 850nm and 950nm external IR LEDs. For more information on Intersil’s ISL29028 ambient […]
