APDS-9300
Miniature Ambient Light Photo Sensor
with Digital (I2C) Output
Data Sheet
Description
Features
The APDS-9300 is a low-voltage Digital Ambient Light
Photo Sensor that converts light intensity to digital signal
output capable of direct I2C interface. Each device consists
of one broadband photodiode (visible plus infrared) and
one infrared photodiode. 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.

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 Ee is supplied by an AlInGaP light–emitting diode with the following characteristics: peak wavelength lp = 640 nm and
spectral halfwidth Dl½ = 17 nm.
4. The 940 nm irradiance Ee is supplied by a GaAs light–emitting diode with the following characteristics: peak wavelength lp = 940 nm and spectral
halfwidth Dl½ = 40 nm.
5. Integration time Tint, is dependent on internal oscillator frequency (fosc) and on the integration field value in the timing register as described in
the Register Set section. For nominal fosc = 735 kHz, nominal Tint = (number of clock cycles)/fosc.
Field value 00: Tint = (11 • 918)/fosc = 13.7 ms
Field value 01: Tint = (81 • 918)/fosc = 101 ms
Field value 10: Tint = (322 • 918)/fosc = 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 Tint = 178 ms for nominal fosc = 735 kHz.
7. Low gain mode has 16x lower gain than high gain mode: (1/16 = 0.0625).
8. For sensor Lux calculation, please refer to the empirical formula in Application Note. It is 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.

Principles of Operation
Digital Interface
Analog–to–Digital Converter
Interface and control of the APDS-9300 is accomplished
through a two–wire serial interface to a set of registers
that provide access to device control functions and output data. The serial interface is compatible to I2C bus Fast–
Mode. The APDS-9300 offers three slave addresses that
are selectable via an external pin (ADDR SEL). The slave
address options are shown in Table 1.
The APDS-9300 contains two integrating analog–to–digital converters (ADC) that integrate the currents from the
channel 0 and channel 1 photodiodes. Integration of both
channels occurs simultaneously, and 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 invalid
data is not read during the transfer. After the transfer, the
device automatically begins the next integration cycle.

NOTE:
The Slave Addresses are 7 bits and please note the I2C protocols. A read/
write bit should be appended to the slave address by the master device
to properly communicate with the APDS-9300 device.
I2C Protocols
Each Send and Write protocol is, essentially, a series of
bytes. A byte sent to the APDS-9300 with the most significant bit (MSB) equal to 1 will be interpreted as a COMMAND byte. The lower four bits of the COMMAND byte
form the register select address (see Table 2), which is
used to select the destination for the subsequent byte(s)
received. The APDS-9300 responds to any Receive Byte requests with the contents of the register specified by the
stored register select address.

Register Set
The APDS-9300 is controlled and monitored by sixteen registers (three are reserved) and a command register accessed
through the serial interface. These registers provide for a variety of control functions and can be read to determine results of the ADC conversions. The register set is summarized in Table 2.

The mechanics of accessing a specific register depends on the specific I2C protocol used. Refer to the section on I2C
protocols. In general, the COMMAND register is written first to specify the specific control/status register for following
read/write operations.
Command Register
The command register specifies the address of the target register for subsequent read and write operations. The Send
Byte protocol is used to configure the COMMAND register. The command register contains eight bits as described in
Table 3. The command register defaults to 00h at power on.

N/A
The manual timing control feature is used to manually start and stop the integration time period. If a particular integration time period is required that is not listed in Table 6, then this feature can be used. For example, the manual timing
control can be used to synchronize the APDS-9300 device with an external light source (e.g. LED). A start command to
begin integration can be initiated by writing a 1 to this bit field. Correspondingly, the integration can be stopped by
simply writing a 0 to the same bit field.
11
Interrupt Threshold Register (2h - 5h)
The interrupt threshold registers store the values to be used as the high and low trigger points for the comparison function for interrupt generation. If the value generated by channel 0 crosses below or is equal to the low threshold specified,
an interrupt is asserted on the interrupt pin. If the value generated by channel 0 crosses above the high threshold specified, an interrupt is asserted on the interrupt pin. Registers THRESHLOWLOW and THRESHLOWHIGH provide the low byte
and high byte, respectively, of the lower interrupt threshold. Registers THRESHHIGHLOW and THRESHHIGHHIGH provide
the low and high bytes, respectively, of the upper interrupt threshold. The high and low bytes from each set of registers
are combined to form a 16–bit threshold value. The interrupt threshold registers default to 00h on power up.

NOTE:
Since two 8–bit values are combined for a single 16–bit value for each of the high and low interrupt thresholds, the Send Byte protocol
should not be used to write to these registers. Any values transferred by the Send Byte protocol with the MSB set would be interpreted as the
COMMAND field and stored as an address for subsequent read/write operations and not as the interrupt threshold information as desired. The Write
Word protocol should be used to write byte–paired registers. For example, the THRESHLOWLOW and THRESHLOWHIGH registers (as well as the
THRESHHIGHLOW and THRESHHIGHHIGH registers) can be written together to set the 16–bit ADC value in a single transaction.
Interrupt Control Register (6h)
The INTERRUPT register controls the extensive interrupt capabilities of the APDS-9300. The APDS-9300 permits traditional level–style interrupts. The interrupt persist bit field (PERSIST) provides control over when interrupts occur. A value
of 0 causes an interrupt to occur after every integration cycle regardless of the threshold settings. A value of 1 results
in an interrupt after one integration time period outside the threshold window. A value of N (where N is 2 through15)
results in an interrupt only if the value remains outside the threshold window for N consecutive integration cycles. For
example, if N is equal to 10 and the integration time is 402 ms, then the total time is approximately 4 seconds.
When a level Interrupt is selected, an interrupt is generated whenever the last conversion results in a value outside of
the programmed threshold window. The interrupt is active–low and remains asserted until cleared by writing the COMMAND register with the CLEAR bit set.
NOTE:
Interrupts are based on the value of Channel 0 only.

ADC Channel Data Registers (Ch - Fh)
The ADC channel data are expressed as 16–bit values spread across two registers. The ADC channel 0 data registers,
DATA0LOW and DATA0HIGH provide the lower and upper bytes, respectively, of the ADC value of channel 0. Registers
DATA1LOW and DATA1HIGH provide the lower and upper bytes, respectively, of the ADC value of channel 1. All channel
data registers are read–only and default to 00h on power up.

The upper byte data registers can only be read following a read to the corresponding lower byte register. When the
lower byte register is read, the upper eight bits are strobed into a shadow register, which is read by a subsequent read
to the upper byte. The upper register will read the correct value even if additional ADC integration cycles end between
the reading of the lower and upper registers.
NOTE: The Read Word protocol can be used to read byte–paired registers. For example, the DATA0LOW and DATA0HIGH registers
(as well as the DATA1LOW and DATA1HIGH registers) may be read together to obtain the 16–bit ADC value in a single transaction

The reflow profile is a straight-line representation of a
nominal temperature profile for a convective reflow solder process. The temperature profile is divided into four
process zones, each with different DT/Dtime temperature
change rates or duration. The DT/Dtime rates or duration
are detailed in the above table. The temperatures are
measured at the component to printed circuit board connections.
In process zone P1, the PC board and component pins are
heated to a temperature of 150°C to activate the flux in
the solder paste. The temperature ramp up rate, R1, is limited to 3°C per second to allow for even heating of both
the PC board and component pins.
Process zone P2 should be of sufficient time duration (100
to 180 seconds) to dry the solder paste. The temperature
is raised to a level just below the liquidus point of the solder.
Process zone P3 is the solder reflow zone. In zone P3, the
temperature is quickly raised above the liquidus point of
solder to 260°C (500°F) for optimum results. The dwell time
above the liquidus point of solder should be between 60
and 90 seconds. This is to assure proper coalescing of the
solder paste into liquid solder and the formation of good
solder connections. Beyond the recommended dwell time
the intermetallic growth within the solder connections
becomes excessive, resulting in the formation of weak
and unreliable connections. The temperature is then rapidly reduced to a point below the solidus temperature of
the solder to allow the solder within the connections to
freeze solid.
Process zone P4 is the cool down after solder freeze. The
cool down rate, R5, from the liquidus point of the solder to
25°C (77°F) should not exceed 6°C per second maximum.
This limitation is necessary to allow the PC board and
component pins to change dimensions evenly, putting
minimal stresses on the component.
It is recommended to perform reflow soldering no more
than twice.

Appendix A: Window Design Guide
A1: Optical Window Dimensions
To ensure that the performance of the APDS-9300 will not
be affected by improper window design, there are some
criteria requested on the dimensions and design of the
window. There is a constraint on the minimum size of the
window, which is placed in front of the photo light sensor,
so that it will not affect the angular response of the APDS9300. This minimum dimension that is recommended will
ensure at least a ±35° light reception cone. If a smaller window is required, a light pipe or light guide
can be used. A light pipe or light guide is a cylindrical
piece of transparent plastic, which makes use of total internal reflection to focus the light.
The thickness of the window should be kept as minimum
as possible because there is a loss of power in every optical
window of about 8% due to reflection (4% on each side)
and an additional loss of energy in the plastic material.
Table A1 and Figure A2 show the recommended dimensions of the window. These dimension values are based
on a window thickness of 1.0mm with a refractive index
1.585.
The window should be placed directly on top of the light
sensitive area of APDS-9300 (see Figure A3) to achieve
better performance. If a flat window with a light pipe is
used, dimension D2 should be 1.55mm to optimize the
performance of APDS-9300. D1

A2: Optical Window Material
The material of the window is recommended to be polycarbonate. The surface finish of the plastic should be
smooth, without any texture. The recommended plastic material for use as a window is
available from Bayer AG and Bayer Antwerp N. V. (Europe),
Bayer Corp.(USA) and Bayer Polymers Co., Ltd. (Thailand),
as shown in Table A2.

Figure B1. Application circuit for APDS-9300
The power supply lines must be decoupled with a 0.1 uF
capacitor placed as close to the device package as possible, as shown in Figure B1. The bypass capacitor should
have low effective series resistance (ESR) and low effective series inductance (ESI), such as the common ceramic
types, which provide a low impedance path to ground at
high frequencies to handle transient currents caused by
internal logic switching.
Pull-up resistors, R1 and R2, maintain the SDA and SCL
lines at a high level when the bus is free and ensure the

signals are pulled up from a low to a high level within the
required rise time. For a complete description of I2C maximum and minimum R1 and R2 values, please review the

com.
A pull-up resistor, R3, is also required for the interrupt
(INT), which functions as a wired-AND signal in a similar
fashion to the SCL and SDA lines. A typical impedance
value between 10 kΩ and 100 kΩ can be used.
