The TMD2772 family of devices provides digital ambient light sensing (ALS), a complete proximity detection
system, and digital interface logic in a single 8-pin surface mount module. The devices are register-set and
pin-compatible with the TMD2771 family of devices and include new and improved ALS and proximity detection
features. The ALS enhancements include a reduced-gain mode that extends the operating range in sunlight.
Proximity detection includes improved signal-to-noise performance and more accurate factory calibration. A
proximity offset register allows compensation for optical system crosstalk between the IR LED and the sensor.
To prevent false proximity data measurement readings, a proximity saturation indicator bit signals that the
internal analog circuitry has reached saturation.
The TMD2772 ALS is based on the TAOS patented dual-diode technology that enables accurate results and
approximates human eye response to light intensity under a variety of lighting conditions. The proximity
detection system includes an LED driver and an IR LED, which are factory trimmed to eliminate the need for
end-equipment calibration due to component variations.

Detailed Description
The light-to-digital device provides on-chip photodiodes, integrating amplifiers, ADCs, accumulators, clocks,
buffers, comparators, a state machine, and an I
2
C interface. Each device combines one photodiode (CH0),
which is responsive to both visible and infrared light, and a second photodiode (CH1), which is responsive
primarily to infrared light. Two integrating ADCs simultaneously convert the amplified photodiode currents to
a digital value providing up to 16-bits of resolution. Upon completion of the conversion cycle, the conversion
result is transferred to the Ch0 and Ch1 data registers. This digital output can be read by a microprocessor
where the luminance (ambient light level in lux) is derived using an empirical formula to approximate the human
eye response.
A fully integrated proximity detection solution is provided with an 850-nm IR LED, LED driver circuit, and
proximity detection engine. An internal LED driver pin (LDR) is externally connected to the LED cathode (LEDK)
to provide a controlled LED sink current. This is accomplished with a proprietary current calibration technique
that accounts for all variances in silicon, optics, package, and most important, IR LED output power. This
eliminates or greatly reduces the need for factory calibration that is required for most discrete proximity sensor
solutions. The
device
is factory calibrated to achieve a proximity count reading at a specified distance with a
specific number of pulses. In use, the number of proximity LED pulses can be programmed from 1 to 255 pulses,
which allows different proximity distances to be achieved. Each pulse has a 16
μs
period with a 7.2
μs
on time.
Communication with the device is accomplished through a fast (up to 400 kHz), two-wire I
2
C serial bus for easy
connection to a microcontroller or embedded controller. The digital output of the device is inherently more
immune to noise when compared to an analog photodiode interface.
The device provides a separate pin for level-style interrupts. When interrupts are enabled and a pre-set value
is exceeded, the interrupt pin is asserted and remains asserted until cleared by the controlling firmware. The
interrupt feature simplifies and improves system efficiency by eliminating the need to poll a sensor for a light
intensity or proximity value. An interrupt is generated when the value of an ALS or proximity conversion exceeds
either an upper or lower threshold. In addition, a programmable interrupt persistence feature allows the user
to determine how many consecutive exceeded thresholds are necessary to trigger an interrupt. Interrupt
thresholds and persistence settings are configured independently for both ALS and proximity.
