Light Intensity to Frequency IC.jpg

This is a programmable light to frequency IC from TAOS that outputs a pulse train or a square wave (50% duty) with the frequency that is directly proportional to the incident light intensity. Uses a simple TTL output for easy interfacing to a microcontroller.

Three different sensitivity selections and four different frequency scaling parameters.

Features:

  • Supply voltage 2.7 - 5.5VDC
  • 320nm - 1050nm response range
  • 2mA supply current in power on mode
  • 5uA current in power down mode mode
  • Temperature compensated for UV to visible range
