SemiconductorsThe VEML6040A3OG with Vishay Semiconductors Photo IC Sensors is a light-to-digital converter module that provides quick and accurate measurement of Red, Green, Blue (RGB) and White (W) light emission. The VEML6040A3OG is an array of photodiodes with on-chip 16-bit analog-to-digital converters that can detect light intensity from 0.005 all the way up to the saturation point of 2000 lux. Its low-power and low-noise design makes it ideal for battery-powered applications such as portable light and color measurement and display systems. The device communicates using either I2C or serial interface and operates on a supply voltage from 2.5 V to 3.6 V. It is an ideal solution for applications related to scientific analysis, interactive light displays, and certain types of medical device applications.
