Ambient Light Sensor ICs
Analog Current Output Type
Ambient Light Sensor IC
BH1680FVC
●Descriptions
BH1680FVC is an analog current output ambient light sensor. This IC can detect the illuminance from 0lx to 50000lx. It is the
most suitable to obtain the ambient light data for adjusting LCD and Keypad backlight of Mobile phone for power saving and
better visibility. It is suitable also for the use of optical window that the visible light transmission is low because of the high
sensitivity type.
●Features
1) Compact surface mount package 1.6 x 1.6 mm
2) Output current in proportion to brightness
3) Suitable for optical window that the visible light transmission is low (High sensitivity type)
4) The influence of infrared is very small by an infrared cut filter
5) Supply voltage operates from 2.4V to 5.5V
6) Built-in shutdown function
7) 3 steps controllable output current gain
8) 1.8V logic input interface
9) Low sensitivity variation (+/-15%)
●Applications
Mobile phone, LCD TV, PDP TV, Laptop PC, Portable game console, Digital camera, Digital video camera, LCD display
