Broadcom APDS-9007 Series Ambient Light Sensor, 2.4mm Length, 2mm Width - APDS-9007-020

This ambient light sensor measures ambient illumination and provides an analogue current output for use in Compact consumer electronics. It is designed for surface mounting and operates from low supply voltages, making it suitable for integration in space-constrained devices that require Rapid detection of changes in light level.

Features and Benefits:

• Low-voltage operation supports supply range 2V-3.6V for power-sensitive systems
  Fast response time 200 μs rise and fall for quick light-change detection
  Analogue current output enables straightforward sensor interfacing
  Six-pin surface package facilitates Compact board-level placement
  Wide operating temperature range −40 °C to 85 °C for varied environments

Applications

• Suitable for ambient light control in mobile phones
  Ideal for automatic exposure in digital cameras
  Used with PDAs for display brightness adjustment
  Can be used for ambient sensing in TVs
  Appropriate for webpads requiring responsive light feedback

What package type should designers expect for PCB footprint planning?

The device is supplied in a chip LED package and is intended for surface mounting with six connection pins for board layout.

How does the sensor behave across temperature extremes?

It functions across a minimum of −40 °C up to a maximum of 85 °C, supporting operation in both cold and warm conditions.

What kind of output does the device provide to a downstream circuit?

It delivers an analogue output in the form of a current signal suitable for conversion or direct measurement by analogue front ends.

Is this sensor specified for automotive applications?

Automotive-grade approval is not required for this device and it is not specified as an automotive sensor.

What are the physical size considerations for integration into Compact products?

The sensor occupies a small footprint with dimensions of 2.4 mm length, 2 mm width and 0.8 mm height.
