Description
The Si1120 is a low-power, reflectance-based proximity and ambient light sensor with advanced analog signal processing and analog PWM output. It includes an integrated differential photodiode, signal processor, and LED driver. Proximity sensing is based on the measurement of reflected light from an external, optically-isolated, strobed LED. A separate visible light photodiode is used for ambient light sensing. The standard package for the Si1120 is an 8-pin ODFN.
