Ambient light sensors

29 October 2014 Opto-Electronics

Vishay’s latest generation of ambient light sensors detect light or brightness in a manner similar to the human eye, closely matching our ability to see light with wavelengths between 380 nm to 780 nm. They allow settings to be adjusted automatically in response to changing ambient light conditions and can turn on and off and adjust features of lighting systems to ensure safety and conserve battery power. Available in a range of viewing angles or angles of half sensitivity, the sensors come in leaded and surface mount packages, with either photodiode or phototransistor outputs. They are available in automotive qualified packages and in versions containing an infrared filtering epoxy for enhanced ambient light sensing performance.
