please see www.vishay.com/doc?99912 APPLICATIONS DESCRIPTION • Ambient light sensor for mobile devices (e.g. smart
phones, touch phones, PDA, GPS) for backlight dimming
even under tinted glass VEML6035 is a 16-bit low power, high sensitivity CMOS
ambient light sensor operated via a simple I2C command.
The sensor offers an active interruption feature that is
triggered outside of the threshold window settings
eliminating loading on the host. Active average power
consumption is around 300 μW. • Ambient light sensor for industrial on-/ off-lighting
operation
• Optical switch for consumer, computing, and industrial
devices and displays VEML6035 incorporates a photodiode, amplifiers, and …
