MikroElektronika Ambient 6 Click Light Sensor for VEML7700

Ambient 6 click can sense the intensity of the ambient light, providing the measurement data in digital format over the I2C interface. It utilizes the VEML7700, a miniature ambient light sensor (ALS) with I2C interface. Packed in a small transparent casing, this sensor can provide very accurate readings: thanks to a 16-bit dynamic range, it can be used in very dim and very bright lighting conditions. A well-proven Filtron™ technology allows response close to a real human eye, while the O-Trim™ technology allows for ALS tolerance less than 10%. The flicker noise rejection algorithm further improves accuracy, while excellent thermal compensation ensures consistency of the measurement results. Ambient 6 click is supported by a mikroSDK compliant library, which includes functions that simplify software development. This Click board™ comes as a fully tested product, ready to be used on a system equipped with the mikroBUS™ socket.
