ISL29030A Features The ISL29030A is an integrated ambient and infrared light-to-digital converter with a built-in IR LED driver and I2C Interface (SMBus Compatible). This device uses two independent ADCs for concurrently measuring ambient light and proximity in parallel. The flexible interrupt scheme is designed for minimal microcontroller utilization. For ambient light sensor (ALS) data conversions, an ADC converts photodiode current (with a light sensitivity range of 2000 Lux) in 100ms per sample. The ADC rejects 50Hz/60Hz flicker noise caused by artificial light sources. The IALS pin provides an analog output current proportional to the measured light (420μA FSR). For proximity sensor (Prox) data conversions, the built-in driver turns on an external infrared LED and the proximity sensor ADC converts the reflected IR intensity to digital. This ADC rejects ambient IR noise (such as sunlight) and has a 540μs conversion time. The ISL29030A provides low power operation of ALS and proximity sensing with a typical 138μA normal operation current (110μA for sensors and internal circuitry, ~28μA for external LED) with 220mA current pulses for a net 100μs, repeating every 800ms (or under). The ISL29030A uses both a hardware pin and software bits to indicate an interrupt event has occurred. An ALS interrupt is defined as a measurement which is outside a set window. A proximity interrupt is defined as a measurement over a threshold limit. The user may also require that both ALS/prox interrupts occur at once, up to 16 times in a row before activating the interrupt pin. The ISL29030A is designed to operate from 2.25V to 3.63V over the -40°C to +85°C ambient temperature range. It is packaged in a clear, lead-free 8 lead ODFN package.

I2C DRIVER TIMING DIAGRAM FOR MASTER AND SLAVE CONNECTED TO COMMON BUS Principles of Operation I2C Interface The ISL29030A’s I2C interface slave address is internally hardwired as 0b1000100. Figure 2 shows a sample one-byte read. The I2C bus master always drives the SCL (clock) line, while either the master or the slave can drive the SDA (data) line. Every I2C transaction begins with the master asserting a start condition (SDA falling while SCL remains high). The first transmitted byte is initiated by the master and includes 7 address bits and a R/W bit. The slave is responsible for pulling SDA low during the ACK bit after every transmitted byte. Each I2C transaction ends with the master asserting a stop condition (SDA rising while SCL remains high). For more information about the I2C standard, please consult the Philips™ I2C specification documents. 8 Photodiodes and ADCs The ISL29030A contains two photodiode arrays which convert photons (light) into current. The ALS photodiodes are constructed to mimic the human eye’s wavelength response curve to visible light (see Figure 7). The ALS photodiodes’ current output is digitized by a 12-bit ADC in 100ms. These 12 bits can be accessed by reading from I2C registers 0x9 and 0xA when the ADC conversion is completed. The ALS converter is a charge-balancing integrating 12-bit ADC. Charge-balancing is best for converting small current signals in the presence of periodic AC noise. Integrating over 100ms highly rejects both 50Hz and 60Hz light flicker by picking the lowest integer number of cycles for both 50Hz/60Hz frequencies.

TIMING DIAGRAM FOR PROX/ALS EVENTS - NOT TO SCALE The proximity sensor is an 8-bit ADC which operates in a similar fashion. When proximity sensing is enabled, the IRDR pin will drive a user-supplied infrared LED, the emitted IR reflects off an object (i.e., a human head) back into the ISL29030A, and a sensor converts the reflected IR wave to a current signal in 0.54ms. The ADC subtracts the IR reading before and after the LED is driven (to remove ambient IR such as sunlight), and converts this value to a digital count stored in Register 0x8. The ISL29030A is designed to run two conversions concurrently: a proximity conversion and an ALS (or IR) conversion. Please note that because of the conversion times, the user must let the ADCs perform one full conversion first before reading from I2C Registers PROX_DATA (wait 0.54ms) or ALSIR_DT1/2 (wait 100ms). The timing between ALS and Prox conversions is arbitrary (as shown in Figure 3). The ALS runs continuously with new data available every 100ms. The proximity sensor runs continuously with a time between conversions decided by PROX_SLP (Register 1 Bits [6:4]). Ambient Light and IR Sensing The ISL29030A is set for ambient light sensing when Register bit ALSIR_MODE = 0 and ALR_EN = 1. The light-wavelength response of the ALS appears as shown in Figure 6. ALS measuring mode (as opposed to IR measuring mode) is set by default. When the part is programmed for infrared (IR) sensing (ALSIR_MODE = 1; ALS_EN = 1), infrared light is converted into a current and digitized by the same ALS ADC. The result of an IR conversion is strongly related to the amount of IR energy incident on our sensor, but is unitless and is referred to in digital counts. Proximity Sensing When proximity sensing is enabled (PROX_EN = 1), the external IR LED is driven for 0.1ms by the built-in IR LED driver through the IRDR pin. The amplitude of the IR LED 9 current depends on Register 1 bit 3: PROX_DR. If this bit is low, the load will see a fixed 110mA current pulse. If this bit is high, the load on IRDR will see a fixed 220mA current pulse as seen in Figure 4. 220mA (PROX_DR = 1) 110mA (PROX_DR = 0) PIN 8 - IRDR (IRDR IS HI-Z WHEN NOT DRIVING) FIGURE 4. CURRENT DRIVE MODE OPTIONS When the IR from the LED reaches an object and gets reflected back into the ISL29030A, the reflected IR light is converted into current as per the IR spectral response shown in Figure 7. One entire proximity measurement takes 0.54ms for one conversion (which includes 0.1ms spent driving the LED), and the period between proximity measurements is decided by PROX_SLP (sleep time) in Register 1 Bits 6:4. Average LED driving current consumption is given by Equation 1. I lRDR ;PEAK × 100μs I lRDR ;AVE = -------------------------------------------------------T SLEEP (EQ. 1) A typical IRDR scheme is 220mA amplitude pulses every 800ms, which yields 28μA DC. Total Current Consumption Total current consumption is the sum of IDD and IIRDR. The IRDR pin sinks current (as shown in Figure 4) and the average IRDR current can be calculated using Equation 1. IDD depends on voltage and the mode-ofoperation as seen in Figure 11. FN7722.0 November 18, 2010 ISL29030A Interrupt Function The ISL29030A has an intelligent interrupt scheme designed to shift some logic processing away from intensive microcontroller I2C polling routines (which consume power) and towards a more independent light sensor which can instruct a system to “wake up” or “go to sleep.” An ALS interrupt event (ALS_FLAG) is governed by Registers 5 through 7. The user writes a high and low threshold value to these registers and the ISL29030A will issue an ALS interrupt flag if the actual count stored in Registers 0x9 and 0xA are outside the user’s programmed window. The user must write 0 to clear the ALS_FLAG. A proximity interrupt event (PROX_FLAG) is governed by the high and low thresholds in registers 3 and 4 (PROX_LT and PROX_HT). PROX_FLAG is set when the measured proximity data is more than the higher threshold X-times-in-a-row (X is set by user; see following paragraph). The proximity interrupt flag is cleared when the prox data is lower than the low proximity threshold X-times-in-a-row, or when the user writes “0” to PROX_FLAG. Interrupt persistency is another useful option available for both ALS and proximity measurements. Persistency requires X-in-a-row interrupt flags before the INT pin is driven low. Both ALS and Prox have their own independent interrupt persistency options. See ALS_PRST and PROX_PRST bits in Register 2. The final interrupt option is the ability to AND or OR the two interrupt flags using Register 2 Bit 0 (INT_CTRL). If the user wants both ALS/Prox interrupts to happen at the same time before changing the state of the interrupt pin, set this bit high. If the user wants the interrupt pin to change state when either the ALS or the Proximity interrupt flag goes high, leave this bit to its default of 0. Analog-Out IALS Pin When ALS_EN = 1, The analog IALS output pin sources a current directly proportional to the digital count stored in register bits ALSIRDATA[11:0]. When ALS_EN = 0, this pin is in a high impedance state. See Figure 15 for the effects of the compliance voltage VI_ALS on IALS. ALS Range 1 Considerations When measuring ALS counts higher than 1800 on range 1 (ALSIR_MODE = 0, ALS_RANGE = 0, ALS_DATA > 1800), switch to range 2 (change the ALS_RANGE bit from “0” to “1”) and remeasure ALS counts. This recommendation pertains only to applications where the light incident upon the sensor is IR-heavy and is distorted by tinted glass that increases the ratio of infrared to visible light. For more information, see the separate ALS Range 1 Considerations document. VDD Power-up and Power Supply Considerations Upon power-up, please ensure a VDD slew rate of 0.5V/ms or greater. After power-up, or if the user’s 10 power supply temporarily deviates from our specification (2.25V to 3.63V), Intersil recommends the user write the following: write 0x00 to register 0x01, write 0x29 to register 0x0F, write 0x00 to register 0x0E, and write 0x00 to register 0x0F. The user should then wait ~1ms or more and then rewrite all registers to the desired values. If the user prefers a hardware reset method instead of writing to test registers: set VDD = 0V for 1 second or more, power back up at the required slew rate, and write registers to the desired values. Power-Down The power-down can be set 2 ways by the user. The first is to set both PROX_EN and ALS_EN bits to 0 in Register 1. The second and more simple way is to set all bits in Register 1 to 0 (0x00). Calculating Lux The ISL29030A’s ADC output codes are directly proportional to lux when in ALS mode (see ALSIR_MODE bit). (EQ. 2) E calc = α RANGE × OUT ADC In Equation 2, Ecalc is the calculated lux reading and OUT represents the ADC code. The constant α to plug in is determined by the range bit ALS_RANGE (register 0x1 bit 1) and is independent of the light source type. TABLE 15. ALS SENSITIVITY AT DIFFERENT RANGES ALS_RANGE αRANGE (Lux/Count) 0 0.0326 1 0.522 Table 15 shows two different scale factors: one for the low range (ALS_RANGE = 0) and the other for the high range (ALS_RANGE = 1). Noise Rejection Charge balancing ADC’s have excellent noise-rejection characteristics for periodic noise sources whose frequency is an integer multiple of the conversion rate. For instance, a 60Hz AC unwanted signal’s sum from 0ms to k*16.66ms (k = 1,2...ki) is zero. Similarly, setting the device’s integration time to be an integer multiple of the periodic noise signal greatly improves the light sensor output signal in the presence of noise. Since wall sockets may output at 60Hz or 50Hz, our integration time is 100ms: the lowest common integer number of cycles for both frequencies. Proximity Detection of Various Objects Proximity sensing relies on the amount of IR reflected back from objects. A perfectly black object would absorb all light and reflect no photons. The ISL29030A is sensitive enough to detect black ESD foam which reflects only 1% of IR. For biological objects, blonde hair reflects more than brown hair and customers may notice that skin tissue is much more reflective than hair. IR penetrates into the skin and is reflected or scattered FN7722.0 November 18, 2010 ISL29030A back from within. As a result, the proximity count peaks at contact and monotonically decreases as skin moves away. The reflective characteristics of skin are very different from that of paper. Typical Circuit A typical application for the ISL29030A is shown in Figure 5. The ISL29030A’s I2C address is internally hardwired as 0b1000100. The device can be tied onto a system’s I2C bus together with other I2C compliant devices. Soldering Considerations Convection heating is recommended for reflow soldering; direct-infrared heating is not recommended. The plastic ODFN package does not require a custom reflow soldering profile, and is qualified to +260°C. A standard reflow soldering profile with a +260°C maximum is recommended. (http://www.intersil.com/data/tb/TB477.pdf) Suggested PCB Footprint It is important that users check the “Surface Mount Assembly Guidelines for Optical Dual FlatPack No Lead (ODFN) Package” before starting ODFN product board mounting. (http://www.intersil.com/data/tb/TB477.pdf) Layout Considerations The ISL29030A is relatively insensitive to layout. Like other I2C devices, it is intended to provide excellent performance even in significantly noisy environments. There are only a few considerations that will ensure best performance. Route the supply and I2C traces as far as possible from all sources of noise. A 0.1µF and 1µF power supply decoupling capacitors need to be placed close to the device.
