Mouser Electronics is now stocking the APDS-9700 miniature single-chip signal conditioning IC from Avago Technologies, a supplier of analog interface components for communications, industrial and consumer applications.
According to a Mouser communiqu , the IC enhances the performance and robustness of optical sensors used for proximity or object detection, in consumer and industrial applications. When used with optical proximity sensors, the IC provides accurate and robust detection of objects - in ambient light and sunlight conditions. It will allow design engineers to package more functionality into those applications - where printed circuit board space is limited. As a result, the APDS-9700 provides designers with a total solution that offers ease of implementation and cost savings.
The IC is packaged in an eight-pin QFN package measuring 0.55mm x 2mm x 2mm. This combines the functionality of signal conditioning for proximity sensing into a single chip, to reduce the number of required components. The APDS-9700 includes an LED driver circuit, artificial light immunity, sunlight cancellation, and a built-in LED stuck high protection circuit - to enable operation in artificial or sunlight conditions.
The signal conditioning IC is suitable for use in devices including PDAs, mobile phones, handheld games, and laptop computers, as well as vending machines, industrial automation equipment, contactless switches, and sanitary automation devices.
Mike Scott, vice president (Active Products) of Mouser, says, "One of Mouser's core competencies is in working with our suppliers - to ensure we have available inventory of their newest products for our engineering customers' immediate design needs. Avago's new APDS-9700 signal conditioning IC gives engineers a solution to problems, associated with optical sensing applications in varying ambient light environments."
