The EAALSTIC1708A0 is a low cost ambient light sensor, consisting of phototransistor in mini
ature SMD. Everlight
Americas
ALS series products are a good effective solution to the power saving of display backlighting of mobile
appliances, such as the mobile phones, NB and PDAs. Due to the high rejection ratio of infrared radiation, the spectral
re
sponse of the ambient light sensor is close to that of human eyes.
Applications
Detection of ambient light to control display backlighting
Mobile devices – mobile phones, PDAs
Computing device – TFT LCD monitor for Notebook computer
Consumer device – TFT LCD TV, plasma TV, video camera, digital camera, toys
Automatic residential and commercial management
Automatic contrast enhancement for electronic signboard
Ambient light monitoring device for daylight and artificial light
Street light, CCD/CCTV

Note:
1. The output voltage (Vout) is the product of photocurrent (IPH) and loading resistor (RL)
2. A right loading resistor shall be chosen to meet the requirement of maximum ambient light,
and output saturation voltage:
Vout(max.) = Iout(max.) × RLVout(saturation)Vcc0.4V
3. To avoid 60Hz ripple from fluorescent lamps, we suggest that the time constant must be
greater than 0.5 second:

Recommended method of storage
Reflow Terms: JEDEC Level 4 Specification
Dry box storage is recommended as soon as the aluminum bag has been opened prevent
1. Over-current-proof
Customer must apply resistors for protection, otherwise slight voltage shift might cause
big current happen. (Burned-out might happen).

2. Storage
(1) Do not open moisture proof bag before components are ready to use.
(2) Before opening moisture proof bag, components should be kept at 30or less and
90%RH or less.
(3) Components should be used within a year.
(4) After opened moisture proof bag, components should be kept at 30or less and
70%RH or less.
(5) Components should be used within 72 hours after opened moisture proof bag.
(6) If the moisture absorbent material (silica gel) has faded away or the components
have exceeded the storage time, baking treatment should be performed using the
following conditions. (Baking treatment: 60±5for 24 hours)
ESD Precaution:
Proper storage and handing procedures should be followed to prevent ESD damage to the devices
especially when they are removed from the anti-static bag. Electro-Static Sensitive Devices warning
labels are on the packing.
Recommended
solder profile
Notice:
1. Reflow soldering should not be done more than two times.
2. When soldering, do not put stress on the devices during heating.
3. After soldering, do not warp the circuit board.

Soldering Iron
Each terminal is to go to the tip of soldering iron temperature less than 350for 3 seconds within once
in less than the soldering iron capacity 25W. Leave two seconds and more intervals, and do soldering of
each terminal. Be careful because the damage of the product is often started at the time of the hand solder.
Repairing
Repair should not be done after the device have been soldered. When repairing is unavoidable, a double-head
soldering iron should be used (as below figure). It should be confirmed beforehand whether the characteristics of the
device will or will not be damaged by repairing.
