Proposed value for R3 and R4, e.g. 2.2 kΩ to 4.7 kΩ, depend also on the I2C bus speed.

I2C Interface The VCNL4020 contains seventeen 8 bit registers for operation control, parameter setup and result buffering. All registers are accessible via I2C communication. Figure 13 shows the basic I2C communication with VCNL4020. The built in I2C interface is compatible with all I2C modes (standard, fast and high speed). I2C H-level range = 1.7 V to 5 V. Please refer to the I2C specification from NXP for details.

The predefined 7 bit I2C bus address is set to 0010 011 = 13h. The least significant bit (LSB) defines read or write mode. Accordingly the bus address is set to 0010 011x = 26h for write, 27h for read. VCNL4020 has seventeen user accessible 8 bit registers. The register addresses are 80h (register #0) to 90h (register #16). REGISTER FUNCTIONS Register #0 Command Register Register address = 80h The register #0 is for starting ambient light or proximity measurements. This register contains 2 flag bits for data ready indication. TABLE 1 - COMMAND REGISTER #0 Bit 7 Bit 6 Bit 5 Bit 4 Bit 3 Bit 2 Bit 1 Bit 0 config_lock als_data_rdy prox_data_rdy als_od prox_od als_en prox_en selftimed_en Description config_lock Read only bit. Value = 1 als_data_rdy Read only bit. Value = 1 when ambient light measurement data is available in the result registers. This bit will be reset when one of the corresponding result registers (reg #5, reg #6) is read. prox_data_rdy Read only bit. Value = 1 when proximity measurement data is available in the result registers. This bit will be reset when one of the corresponding result registers (reg #7, reg #8) is read. als_od prox_od als_en prox_en selftimed_en R/W bit. Starts a single on-demand measurement for ambient light. If averaging is enabled, starts a sequence of readings and stores the averaged result. Result is available at the end of conversion for reading in the registers #5(HB) and #6(LB). R/W bit. Starts a single on-demand measurement for proximity. Result is available at the end of conversion for reading in the registers #7(HB) and #8(LB). R/W bit. Enables periodic als measurement R/W bit. Enables periodic proximity measurement R/W bit. Enables state machine and LP oscillator for self timed measurements; no measurement is performed until the corresponding bit is set Note • With setting bit 3 and bit 4 at the same write command, a simultaneously measurement of ambient light and proximity is done. Beside als_en and/or prox_en first selftimed_en needs to be set. On-demand measurement modes are disabled if selftimed_en bit is set. For the selftimed_en mode changes in reading rates (reg #4 and reg #2) can be made only when b0 (selftimed_en bit) = 0. For the als_od mode changes to the reg #4 can be made only when b4 (als_od bit) = 0; this is to avoid synchronization problems and undefined states between the clock domains. In effect this means that it is only reasonable to change rates while no selftimed conversion is ongoing.

Setting a delay time between IR LED signal and IR input signal evaluation. This function is for compensation of delays from IR LED and IR photo diode. Also in respect to the possibility for setting different proximity signal frequency. Correct adjustment is optimizing measurement signal level. ( DEFAULT = 0) Proximity frequency R/W bits. Setting the proximity IR test signal frequency The proximity measurement is using a square IR signal as measurement signal. Four different values are possible: 00 = 390.625 kHz (DEFAULT) 01 = 781.25 kHz 10 = 1.5625 MHz 11 = 3.125 MHz Modulation dead time R/W bits. Setting a dead time in evaluation of IR signal at the slopes of the IR signal. ( DEFAULT = 1) This function is for reducing of possible disturbance effects. This function is reducing signal level and should be used carefully. Note • The settings for best performance will be provided by Vishay. With first samples this is evaluated to: Delay Time = 0 ; Dead Time = 1 and Prox Frequency = 0 . With that register#15 should be programmed with 1 (= default value). Register #16 Ambient IR Light Level Register Register address = 90h. This register is not intended to be used by customer. 3. IMPORTANT APPLICATION HINTS AND EXAMPLES 3.1 Receiver standby mode In standby mode the receiver has the lowest current consumption of about 1.5 μA. In this mode only the I2C interface is active. This is always valid, when there are no measurement demands for proximity and ambient light executed. Also the current sink for the IR-LED is inactive, so there is no need for changing register #3 (IR LED current). 3.2 Data Read In order to get a certain register value, the register has to be addressed without data like shown in the following scheme. After this register addressing, the data from the addressed register is written after a subsequent read command. Receive byte Read data from VCNL4020 S Slave address Wr A Register address A P S Slave address Rd A Data byte A P S = start condition P = stop condition A = acknowledge Host action VCNL4020 response Fig. 14 - Send Byte/Receive Byte Protocol The stop condition between these write and read sequences is not mandatory. It works also with a repeated start condition. Note • For reading out 2 (or more) subsequent registers like the result registers, it is not necessary to address each of the registers separately. After one read command the internal register counter is increased automatically and any subsequent read command is accessing the next register.

The single measurement itself takes actually only appr. 300 μs. The following figures show examples of this measurement timing in standard mode using averaging function 2 and 8 as examples for illustration (possible values up to 128).
