NOA1212 Ambient Light Sensor with Dark Current Compensation Description The NOA1212 is a very low power ambient light sensor (ALS) with an analog current output and a power down mode to conserve power. Designed primarily for handheld device applications, the active power dissipation of this chip is less than 8 mA at dark and its quiescent current consumption is less than 200 pA in power down mode. The device can operate over a very wide range of voltages from 2 V to 5.5 V. The NOA1212 employs proprietary CMOS image sensing technology from ON Semiconductor, including built−in dynamic dark current compensation to provide large signal to noise ratio (SNR) and wide dynamic range (DR) over the entire operating temperature range. The photopic optical filter provides a light response similar to that of the human eye. Together the photopic light response and dark current compensation insures accurate light level detection. www.onsemi.com 1 CUDFN6 CU SUFFIX CASE 505AL PIN ASSIGNMENT Features • Senses Ambient Light and Provides an Output Current Proportional • • • • • • • • • • • • to the Ambient Light Intensity Photopic Spectral Response Dynamic Dark Current Compensation Three Selectable Output Current Gain Modes in Approximately 10x Steps Power Down Mode Less than 18 mA at 100 lux Active Power Consumption in Medium Gain Mode (Less than 8 mA at Dark) Less than 200 pA Quiescent Power Dissipation in Power Down Mode at All Light Levels Linear Response Over the Full Operating Range Senses Intensity of Ambient Light from ~0 lux to Over 100,000 lux Wide Operating Voltage Range (2 V to 5.5 V) Wide Operating Temperature Range (−40°C to 85°C) Drop−in Replacement Device in 1.6 x 1.6 mm Package These Devices are Pb−Free, Halogen Free/BFR Free and are RoHS Compliant VDD ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ VSS 2 5 NC GB1 3 4 GB2 ORDERING INFORMATION Device Package Shipping† NOA1212CUTAG* CUDFN6 (Pb−Free) 2500 / Tape & Reel †For information on tape and reel specifications, including part orientation and tape sizes, please refer to our Tape and Reel Packaging Specifications Brochure, BRD8011/D. *Temperature Range: −40°C to 85°C.

The photo response of this sensor is as shown in Figure 3. The ambient light signal detected by the photo diode is converted to an analog output current by an amplifier with programmable gain. Table 4 shows the gain setting and the corresponding light sensitivity. The NOA1212 employs a sensitive photo diode fabricated in ON Semiconductor’s standard CMOS process technology. The major components of this sensor are as shown in Figure 2 . The photons which are to be detected pass through an ON Semiconductor proprietary color filter limiting extraneous photons and thus performing as a band pass filter on the incident wave front. The filter only Table 4.

Equation 4 computes the value for RL (High−Gain mode). This device can be placed in a power down mode by setting GB1 and GB2 to logic low level. In order for proper operation of this mode GB1 and GB2 should stay low 1.5 ms.

In many applications it is desirable to convert the output current into voltage. It may also be desirable to filter the effects of 50/60 Hz flicker or other light source transients. Conversion from current to voltage may be accomplished by adding load resistor RL to the output. The value of RL is bounded on the high side by the potential output saturation of the amplifier at high ambient light levels. RL is bounded on the low side by the output current limiting of the internal amplifier and to minimize power consumption. Equation 1 describes the relationship of light input to current output for the High−Gain mode. C L + 1ń2p f c R L (eq. 5) For our example, to filter out 60Hz flicker the value of CL would be 300 nF. Power Supply Bypassing and Printed Circuit Board Design Power supply bypass and decoupling can typically be handled with a low cost 0.1 mF to 1.0 mF capacitor. The exposed pad on the bottom of the package is internally connected to VSS pin 2 and should be soldered to the printed circuit board. (eq. 1) By adding RL to the output, IOUT is converted into a voltage according to Equation 2. V OUT + I OUT * R L + ǒ51 mAń100 luxǓ * E V * R L (eq. 4) For example, consider a 5 V supply with a desired EVMAX = 1000 lux, the value of RL would be 8.85 kW. The value for RL can easily be computed for different NOA1212 gain ranges by substituting the appropriate output current at 100 lux from Table 4. The optional capacitor CL can be used to form a low−pass filter to remove 50/60 Hz filter or other unwanted noise sources as computed with Equation 5.
