Description
The ALS-PDIC15-21B/TR8 is a compact surface mount photo-sensor IC for detecting ambient
light illuminating intensity. The sensitivity is superior to that of a phototransistor, and exhibits
little chip-to-chip variation. It has excellent spectral sensitivity to the illuminating light source
and excellent output linearity. Due to very low photo current fluctuation versus temperature
change, ALS-PDIC15-21B/TR8 is very suitable for hand-held or outdoor application device.
Applications
‧Detection of ambient light to control display backlighting
Mobile devices – Mobile phones, PDAs, GPS
Computing device – TFT LCD monitor for Notebook computer
Consumer device – TFT LCD TV, Plasma TV
‧Automatic residential and commercial management
‧Automatic contrast enhancement for electronic signboard
‧Ambient light monitoring device for daylight and artificial light
– Street light

Note:
1. The output voltage (Vout) is the product of photocurrent (IPH) and loading resistor (RL)
2. A right loading resistor shall be chosen to meet the requirement of maximum ambient light,
and output saturation voltage:
Vout(max.) = Iout(max.) × RL ≦ Vout(saturation)=Vcc-0.8V
3. To avoid 60Hz ripple from fluorescent lamps, we suggest that the time constant must be
greater than 0.5 second:
RL × CL
≧ 0.5

Recommended method of storage
Reflow Terms:
JEDEC Level 4 Specification
Dry box storage is recommended as soon as the aluminum bag has been opened prevent
moisture absorption. The following conditions should be observed, if dry boxes are not
available:
℃ to 30℃
Storage temperature 10
Storage humidity
≦60%RH max
After more than 72 hours under these conditions moisture content will be too high for
Reflow soldering. In case of moisture absorption, the devices will recover to former
condition by drying under the following condition:
℃ ℃/-0℃ and 5%RH (dry air / nitrogen), or
96 hours at 60℃+5℃ and < 5%RH for all device containers, or
24 hours at 125℃+5℃ not suitable for reel or tubes
192 hours at 40 +5
ESD Precaution:
Proper storage and handing procedures should be followed to prevent ESD damage to
the devices especially when they are removed from the Anti-static bag. Electro-Static
Sensitive Devices warning labels are on the packing.
Recommended Solder Profile
Notice:
(1) Reflow soldering should not be done more than two times.
(2) When soldering, do not put stress on the devices during heating.
(3) After soldering, do not warp the circuit board.
