TSL2672
Digital Proximity Detector
General Description
The TSL2672 family of devices provides proximity detection
when coupled with an external IR LED. The devices incorporate
a constant-current LED sink driver to pulse the external IR LED
and achieve very low average power consumption using the
low-power wait state with programmable wait time between
proximity measurements. In addition, the devices are
register-set and pin-compatible with the TSL2671 series and
include a number of new and improved features, such as
improved signal-to-noise and measurement accuracy. A
proximity offset register allows compensation for optical
system crosstalk between the IR LED and the sensor. To prevent
false measurements, a proximity saturation bit indicates that
the internal analog circuitry saturated. Interrupts have been
enhanced with the addition of a sleep-after-interrupt feature
that also allows for single-cycle operation.
