Excelitas offers ambient light sensors that provide an easy solution for applications requiring a response similar to the human eye, making them ideal when the response should only be influenced by visible light.
Within this product family, we offer two types of Excelitas devices: IR-filtered silicon photodiodes and IR-filtered silicon phototransistors. These devices contribute in various applications to energy conservation in both fixed and portable devices. They are available in a number of standard packages, including surface mount for automated assembly.
Applications: Interior and Exterior Light Switching (Dusk/Dawn Switch); Interior and Exterior Light Control (Dimming); Automotive Headlight Dimmer; Display Contrast Control; Energy Conservation
