The TSL2740-EVM is an evaluation board used to test ambient light sensing applications. It contains several components that make up what is known as a "Photorespive System." The main components of the system are the TSL2740, a low power ambient light sensor and the MSP430 microcontroller, which provide a simple and low-power platform for ambient light sensing applications.

The TSL2740-EVM is primarily used in applications where it is necessary to measure the light intensity in the surroundings and adjust the bright or dark image accordingly. It is used in many applications, from car headlights, medical devices and white goods to industrial automation. It can also be used for backlight control, which requires detection of ambient light levels to adjust backlight intensity and colour.

The working principle of the TSL2740-EVM is relatively simple. It works on a photo-resistor system which consists of a photo-resistor and a voltage source. The photo-resistor is a semiconductor device whose electrical conductivity changes with the amount of light it receives. When the amount of light increases, the photo-resistor conducts more current and the voltage source decreases, and vice versa.

The TSL2740-EVM also incorporates a microcontroller to handle the light sensing process. The microcontroller sends a signal to the photo-resistor which calibrates the response of the device in correlation with the levels of light it receives. This signal is also sent to an analog to digital converter which converts the analog signal into a digital signal, which is then sent to the microcontroller for further processing.

The TSL2740-EVM is also capable of measuring ambient temperature along with light intensity. This application is achieved by using a temperature sensor, another analog to digital converter, and a reference voltage. The temperature information can then be used to adjust the ambient light sensing process.

In summary, the TSL2740-EVM is a powerful and easy-to-use ambient light sensing package. It incorporates several components such as a photo-resistor and microcontroller which allow users to accurately and reliably measure the light intensity in the surrounding environment. It can also measure ambient temperature and adjust the ambient light sensing process according to the temperature. This makes it an ideal platform for a variety of ambient light sensing applications, ranging from automotive to industrial and domestic.
