OPT3002EVM: 300 ~ 1000nm Ambient Light Sensor, 1.6 ~ 3.6V in

This user's guide describes the characteristics, operation, and use of the OPT3002 evaluation module (EVM). This user's guide discusses how to set up and configure the software and hardware, and reviews various aspects of the program operation. Throughout this document, the terms evaluation board, evaluation module, and EVM are synonymous with the OPT3002EVM. This document also includes an electrical schematic, printed circuit board (PCB) layout drawings, and a parts list for the EVM.

The OPT3002 is an ambient light sensor (ALS) with a digital output integrated circuit. The OPT3002 usesa two-wire interface that works with the I2C protocol, making this device ideal for many applications. The OPT3002EVM is a platform for evaluating the performance of the OPT3002 under various conditions. The OPT3002EVM consists of two PCBs. The first PCB is the SM-USB-DIG board that communicates with the computer, provides power, and sends and receives appropriate digital signals. The second PCB is the OPT3002 test board that contains the OPT3002 device and its support circuitry.
