Description
The TSL2550 is a digital-output light sensor with
a two-wire, SMBus serial interface. It combines
two photodiodes and a companding analog-to-
digital converter (ADC) on a single CMOS
integrated circuit to provide light measurements
over an effective 12-bit dynamic range with a
response similar to that of the human eye.

GND 2
The TSL2550 is designed for use with broad wavelength light sources. One of the photodiodes (channel 0) is
sensitive to visible and infrared light, while the second photodiode (channel 1) is sensitive primarily to infrared
light. An integrating ADC converts the photodiode currents to channel 0 and channel 1 digital outputs. Channel
1 digital output is used to compensate for the effect of the infrared component of ambient light on channel 0
digital output. The ADC digital outputs of the two channels are used to obtain a value that approximates the
human eye response in the commonly used unit of Lux.
This device is intended primarily for use in applications in which measurement of ambient light is used to control
display backlighting such as laptop computers, PDAs, camcorders, and GPS systems. Other applications
include contrast control in LED signs and displays, camera exposure control, lighting controls, etc. The
integrating conversion technique used by the TSL2550 effectively eliminates the effect of flicker from
AC-powered lamps, increasing the stability of the measurement.

†
Stresses beyond those listed under “absolute maximum ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under “recommended operating conditions” is not
implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
NOTES: 1. All voltage values are with respect to GND.
2.
Package D only:
The device may be hand soldered provided that heat is applied only to the solder pad and no contact is made
between the tip of the solder iron and the device lead. The maximum time heat should be applied to the device is 5 seconds.

NOTES: 3. Optical measurements are made using small-angle incident radiation from light-emitting diode optical sources. Visible 640 nm LEDs
and infrared 940 nm LEDs are used for final product testing for compatibility with high volume production.
4. The 640 nm irradiance E
e
is supplied by an AlInGaP light-emitting diode with the following characteristics: peak wavelength
λp
= 640 nm and spectral halfwidth
Δλ½
= 17 nm.
5. The 940 nm irradiance E
e
is supplied by a GaAs light-emitting diode with the following characteristics: peak wavelength
λp
= 940 nm and spectral halfwidth
Δλ½
= 40 nm.
6. The sensor Lux is calculated using the empirical formula shown on p. 11 of this data sheet based on measured Ch0 and Ch1 ADC
count values for the light source specified. Actual Lux is obtained with a commercial luxmeter. The range of the (sensor Lux) / (actual
Lux) ratio is estimated based on the variation of the 640 nm and 940 nm optical parameters. Devices are not 100% tested with
fluorescent or incandescent light sources.
