Page 3 Document Feedback TSL2571 - Detailed Description Detailed Description The TSL2571 light-to-digital device includes on-chip photodiodes, integrating amplifiers, ADCs, accumulators, clocks, buffers, comparators, a state machine, and an IC interface. The device combines one photodiode (CH0), which is responsive to both visible and infrared light, and one photodiode (CH1), which is responsive primarily to infrared light. Two integrating ADCs simultaneously convert the amplified photodiode currents into a digital value providing up to 16 bits of resolution. Upon completion of the conversion cycle, the conversion result is transferred to the data registers. This digital output can be read by a microprocessor through which the illuminance (ambient light level) in lux is derived using an empirical formula to approximate the human eye response. Communication to the device is accomplished through a fast (up to 400 kHz), two-wire IC serial bus for easy connection to a microcontroller or embedded controller. The digital output of the device is inherently more immune to noise when compared to an analog interface. The device provides a separate pin for level-style interrupts. When interrupts are enabled and a pre-set value is exceeded, the interrupt pin is asserted and remains asserted until cleared by the controlling firmware. The interrupt feature simplifies and improves system efficiency by eliminating the need to poll a sensor for a light intensity value. An interrupt is generated when the value of an ALS conversion exceeds either an upper or lower threshold. In addition, a programmable interrupt persistence feature allows the user to determine how many consecutive exceeded thresholds are necessary to trigger an interrupt. Interrupt thresholds and persistence settings are configured independently.

After a power-on-reset, the device is in the sleep mode. As soon as the PON bit is set, the device will move to the start state. It will then continue through the Wait and ALS states. If these states are enabled, the device will execute each function. If the PON bit is set to 0, the state machine will continue until all conversions are completed and then go into a low power sleep mode. Figure 15: Simplified State Diagram Sleep PON = 1 (r 0:b0) PON = 0 (r 0:b0) Start ALS Wait Note(s): In this document, the nomenclature uses the bit field name in italic followed by the register number and bit number to allow the user to easily identify the register and bit that controls the function. For example, the power on (PON) is in register 0, bit 0. This is represented as PON (r0:b0). Page 12 Document Feedback ams Datasheet [v1-01] 2018-Mar-27 TSL2571 - Principles of Operation Photodiodes Conventional silicon detectors respond strongly to infrared light, which the human eye does not see. This can lead to significant error when the infrared content of the ambient light is high (such as with incandescent lighting) due to the difference between the silicon detector response and the brightness perceived by the human eye. This problem is overcome through the use of two photodiodes. The channel 0 photodiode, referred to as the CH0 channel, is sensitive to both visible and infrared light, while the channel 1 photodiode, referred to as CH1, is sensitive primarily to infrared light. Two integrating ADCs convert the photodiode currents to digital outputs. The ADC digital outputs from the two channels are used in a formula to obtain a value that approximates the human eye response in units of lux. ALS Operation The ALS engine contains ALS gain control (AGAIN) and two integrating analog-to-digital converters (ADC) for the Channel 0 and Channel 1 photodiodes. The ALS integration time (ATIME) impacts both the resolution and the sensitivity of the ALS reading. Integration of both channels occurs simultaneously and upon completion of the conversion cycle, the results are transferred to the data registers (C0DATA and C1DATA). This data is also referred to as channel count. The transfers are double-buffered to ensure data integrity. Figure 16: ALS Operation ATIME(r 1) 2.72 ms to 696 ms CH0 ALS CH0 Data C0DATAH(r 0x15), C0DATA(r 0x14) ALS Control CH0 CH1 ADC CH1 Data C1DATAH(r 0x17), C1DATA(r 0x16) CH1 AGAIN(r 0x0F, b1:0) 1, 8, 16, 120 Gain ams Datasheet [v1-01] 2018-Mar-27 Page 13 Document Feedback TSL2571 - Principles of Operation The registers for programming the integration and wait times are a 2's compliment values. The actual time can be calculated as follows: ATIME = 256 - Integration Time / 2.72 ms Inversely, the time can be calculated from the register value as follows: Integration Time = 2.72 ms x (256 - ATIME) In order to reject 50/60-Hz ripple strongly present in fluorescent lighting, the integration time needs to be programmed in multiples of 10 / 8.3 ms or the half cycle time. Both frequencies can be rejected with a programmed value of 50 ms (ATIME = 0xED) or multiples of 50 ms (i.e. 100, 150, 200, 400, 600). The registers for programming the AGAIN hold a two-bit value representing a gain of 1x, 8x, 16x, or 120x. The gain, in terms of amount of gain, will be represented by the value AGAINx, i.e. AGAINx = 1, 8, 16, or 120. Lux Equation The lux calculation is a function of CH0 channel count (C0DATA), CH1 channel count (C1DATA), ALS gain (AGAINx), and ALS integration time in milliseconds (ATIME_ms). If an aperture, glass/plastic, or a light pipe attenuates the light equally across the spectrum (300 nm to 1100 nm), then a scaling factor referred to as glass attenuation (GA) can be used to compensate for attenuation. For a device in open air with no aperture or glass/plastic above the device, GA = 1. If it is not spectrally flat, then a custom lux equation with new coefficients should be generated. (See ams application note). Counts per Lux (CPL) needs to be calculated only when ATIME or AGAIN is changed, otherwise it remains a constant. The first segment of the equation (Lux1) covers fluorescent and incandescent light. The second segment (Lux2) covers dimmed incandescent light. The final lux is the maximum of Lux1, Lux2, or 0. CPL = (ATIME_ms x AGAINx) / (GA x 53) Lux1 = (C0DATA - 2 x C1DATA) / CPL Lux2 = (0.6 x C0DATA - C1DATA) / CPL Lux = MAX(Lux1, Lux2, 0) Page 14 Document Feedback ams Datasheet [v1-01] 2018-Mar-27 TSL2571 - Principles of Operation Interrupts The interrupt feature simplifies and improves system efficiency by eliminating the need to poll the sensor for light intensity values outside of a user-defined range. While the interrupt function is always enabled and it's status is available in the status register (0x13), the output of the interrupt state can be enabled using the ALS interrupt enable (AIEN) field in the enable register (0x00). Two 16-bit interrupt threshold registers allow the user to set limits below and above a desired light level range. An interrupt can be generated when the ALS CH0 data (C0DATA) falls outside of the desired light level range, as determined by the values in the ALS interrupt low threshold registers (AILTx) and ALS interrupt high threshold registers (AIHTx). It is important to note that the low threshold value must be less than the high threshold value for proper operation. To further control when an interrupt occurs, the device provides a persistence filter. The persistence filter allows the user to specify the number of consecutive out-of-range ALS occurrences before an interrupt is generated. The persistence register (0x0C) allows the user to set the ALS persistence (APERS) value. See the persistence register for details on the persistence filter values. Once the persistence filter generates an interrupt, it will continue until a special function interrupt clear command is received (see Command Register).

The device starts in the sleep mode. The PON bit is written to enable the device. A 2.72-ms delay will occur before entering the start state. If the WEN bit is set, the state machine will then cycle through the wait state. If the WLONG bit is set, the wait cycles are extended by 12x over normal operation. When the wait counter terminates, the state machine will step to the ALS state. The AEN should always be set. In this case, a minimum of 1 integration time step should be programmed. The ALS state machine will continue until it reaches the terminal count at which point the data will be latched in the ALS register and the interrupt set, if enabled.

The devices support the 7-bit IC addressing protocol. The IC standard provides for three types of bus transaction: read, write, and a combined protocol (see Figure 34). During a write operation, the first byte written is a command byte followed by data. In a combined protocol, the first byte written is the command byte followed by reading a series of bytes. If a read command is issued, the register address from the previous command will be used for data access. Likewise, if the MSB of the command is not set, the device will write a series of bytes at the address stored in the last valid command with a register address. The command byte contains either control information or a 5-bit register address. The control commands can also be used to clear interrupts. The IC bus protocol was developed by Philips (now NXP).

Write as 0. ALS Interrupt. Indicates that the device is asserting an ALS interrupt. Reserved. ALS Valid. Indicates that the ALS CH0 / CH1 channels have completed an integration cycle. Page 25 Document Feedback TSL2571 - Register Description ADC Channel Data Registers (0x14 - 0x17) ALS data is stored as two 16-bit values. To ensure the data is read correctly, a two-byte read IC transaction should be used with auto increment protocol bits set in the command register. With this operation, when the lower byte register is read, the upper eight bits are stored in a shadow register, which is read by a subsequent read to the upper byte. The upper register will read the correct value even if additional ADC integration cycles end between the reading of the lower and upper registers.

A 1-F low-ESR decoupling capacitor should be placed as close as possible to the VDD pin. Figure 32: Typical Application Hardware Circuit VDD VBUS VDD RP 1 mF TSL2571 RP RPI INT SCL GND SDA V BUS in Figure 32 refers to the IC bus voltage, which is either V DD or 1.8 V. Be sure to apply the specified IC bus voltage shown in the Available Options table for the specific device being used. The IC signals and the Interrupt are open-drain outputs and require pull-up resistors. The pull-up resistor (R P) value is a function of the IC bus speed, the IC bus voltage, and the capacitive load. The ams EVM running at 400 kbps, uses 1.5-k resistors. A 10-k pull-up resistor (RPI) can be used for the interrupt line. ams Datasheet [v1-01] 2018-Mar-27 Page 27 Document Feedback TSL2571 - Application Information Hardware PCB Pad Layout Suggested PCB pad layout guidelines for the Dual Flat No-Lead (FN) surface mount package are shown in Figure 33.

To ensure the package contains the smallest amount of absorbed moisture possible, each device is dry-baked prior to being packed for shipping. Devices are packed in a sealed aluminized envelope called a moisture barrier bag with silica gel to protect them from ambient moisture during shipping, handling, and storage before use. The FN package has been assigned a moisture sensitivity level of MSL 3 and the devices should be stored under the following conditions: * Temperature Range: 5C to 50C * Relative Humidity: 60% maximum * Total Time: 12 months from the date code on the aluminized envelope--if unopened * Opened Time: 168 hours or fewer Rebaking will be required if the devices have been stored unopened for more than 12 months or if the aluminized envelope has been open for more than 168 hours. If rebaking is required, it should be done at 50C for 12 hours.
