ISL29030AIROZ-T7

Optical Sensors - Ambient Light, IR, UV Sensors

The ISL29030AIROZ-T7 is an ambient light, Infrared, and ultraviolet sensor manufactured by Intersil. It is made up of a light-to-frequency converter, an IR photo detector, and a UV photo detector-all of which are contained in a single small package.

The optical sensor is packaged in a tiny 8-Arm, 10-mm x 6-mm module. It contains several advanced components that make it more efficient than other similar sensors, including a photodiode, a light-to-frequency converter, and an optical filter. This optical sensor is designed for wearables and consumer applications due to its low power consumption and light weight.

The ISL29030AIROZ-T7 is a complete ambient light and infrared sensor, providing a single integrated solution for accurate, low-power light sensing. Its high sensitivity and wide sensing range make it suitable for indoor and outdoor light applications.

The working principle of this sensor is based on the fact that light intensity changes create an electrical current that is converted into a frequency output. Light intensity is measured by measuring the amount of current created by the photo detector. The ISL29030AIROZ-T7 uses a specially designed photocell to measure the light intensity. The frequency output is then converted into a voltage output signal.

The ISL29030AIROZ-T7 also features a UV filter, which helps reduce the amount of ultraviolet light entering the sensor. This helps maintain a reasonable sensitivity even when operating in direct sunlight, and makes the sensor suitable for a variety of outdoor applications.

The ISL29030AIROZ-T7 sensor is an ideal solution for ambient light sensing applications in a variety of markets, such as consumer electronics, health and medical, automotive, industrial automation, and consumer Internet of Things (IoT) applications. It is an excellent choice for wearables, such as smart watches, fitness trackers, and heart rate monitors, due to its low power consumption and light weight.

In summary, the ISL29030AIROZ-T7 is an advanced, low-power ambient light and infrared sensor that can provide precisely accurate light sensing needed for current CI and IoT applications. It uses advanced components such as photodiodes, light-to-frequency converters, and optical filter to provide accurate, reliable light sensing in a tiny package, making it suitable for a variety of applications.
