Description

c
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 com-
bines 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.
