Description
The TSL2560 and TSL2561 are light-to-digital converters that transform light intensity to a digital signal output
capable of direct I
2
C (TSL2561) or SMBus (TSL2560) interface. Each device combines one broadband
photodiode (visible plus infrared) and one infrared-responding photodiode on a single CMOS integrated circuit
capable of providing a near-photopic response over an effective 20-bit dynamic range (16-bit resolution). Two
integrating ADCs convert the photodiode currents to a digital output that represents the irradiance measured
on each channel. This digital output can be input to a microprocessor where illuminance (ambient light level)
in lux is derived using an empirical formula to approximate the human eye response. The TSL2560 device
permits an SMB-Alert style interrupt, and the TSL2561 device supports a traditional level style interrupt that
remains asserted until the firmware clears it.
While useful for general purpose light sensing applications, the TSL2560/61 devices are designed particularly
for display panels (LCD, OLED, etc.) with the purpose of extending battery life and providing optimum viewing
in diverse lighting conditions. Display panel backlighting, which can account for up to 30 to 40 percent of total
platform power, can be automatically managed. Both devices are also ideal for controlling keyboard illumination
based upon ambient lighting conditions. Illuminance information can further be used to manage exposure
control in digital cameras. The TSL2560/61 devices are ideal in notebook/tablet PCs, LCD monitors, flat-panel
televisions, cell phones, and digital cameras. In addition, other applications include street light control, security
lighting, sunlight harvesting, machine vision, and automotive instrumentation clusters.

Detailed Description
The TSL2560 and TSL2561 are second-generation ambient light sensor devices. Each contains two integrating
analog-to-digital converters (ADC) that integrate currents from two photodiodes. Integration of both channels
occurs simultaneously. Upon completion of the conversion cycle, the conversion result is transferred to the
Channel 0 and Channel 1 data registers, respectively. The transfers are double-buffered to ensure that the
integrity of the data is maintained. After the transfer, the device automatically begins the next integration cycle.
Communication to the device is accomplished through a standard, two-wire SMBus or I
2
C serial bus.
Consequently, the TSL256x device can be easily connected to a microcontroller or embedded controller. No
external circuitry is required for signal conditioning, thereby saving PCB real estate as well. Since the output
of the TSL256x device is digital, the output is effectively immune to noise when compared to an analog signal.
The TSL256x devices also support an interrupt feature that simplifies and improves system efficiency by
eliminating the need to poll a sensor for a light intensity value. The primary purpose of the interrupt function is
to detect a meaningful change in light intensity. The concept of a
meaningful change
can be defined by the user
both in terms of light intensity and time, or persistence, of that change in intensity. The TSL256x devices have
the ability to define a threshold above and below the current light level. An interrupt is generated when the value
of a conversion exceeds either of these limits.

NOTES: 2. 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.
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Integration time T
int
, is dependent on internal oscillator frequency (f
osc
) and on the integration field value in the timing register as
described in the
Register Set
section. For nominal f
osc
= 735 kHz, nominal T
int
= (number of clock cycles)/f
osc
.
Field value 00: T
int
= (11
×
918)/f
osc
= 13.7 ms
Field value 01: T
int
= (81
×
918)/f
osc
= 101 ms
Field value 10: T
int
= (322
×
918)/f
osc
= 402 ms
Scaling between integration times vary proportionally as follows: 11/322 = 0.034 (field value 00), 81/322 = 0.252 (field value 01),
and 322/322 = 1 (field value 10).
6. Full scale ADC count value is limited by the fact that there is a maximum of one count per two oscillator frequency periods and also
by a 2-count offset.
Full scale ADC count value = ((number of clock cycles)/2
−
2)
Field value 00: Full scale ADC count value = ((11

918)/2
−
2) = 5047
Field value 01: Full scale ADC count value = ((81
×
918)/2
−
2) = 37177
Field value 10: Full scale ADC count value = 65535, which is limited by 16 bit register. This full scale ADC count value is reached
for 131074 clock cycles, which occurs for T
int
= 178 ms for nominal f
osc
= 735 kHz.
7. Low gain mode has 16
y
lower gain than high gain mode: (1/16 = 0.0625).
8. The sensor Lux is calculated using the empirical formula shown on p. 22 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.
