ams OSRAM TSL2520-EVM Evaluation Kit is a complete demonstration platform for the TSL2520 Ambient Light Sensor. The TSL2520 is designed to fit in the gap between the display screen and the chassis of a smartphone. The accuracy and high sensitivity of this device, measuring ambient light levels down to just 1mlux, support responsive display brightness management and help improve camera image quality. The compact 2.0mm x 1.0mm x 0.5mm size of the TSL2520 makes it ideal for wearable and smartphone applications.
The ams OSRAM TSL2520-EVM Evaluation Kit consists of an EVM Controller Board, a TSL2520 Daughter Card, USB cable, and a Flash drive which includes the application installer and documentation. The EVM Controller Board features an onboard PIC Microcontroller and an industry-standard USB 2.0 interface. The EVM Controller Board provides power and I2C communication to the TSL2520 Daughter Card through a seven-pin connector. The EVM Controller Board is then connected to a PC through USB, enabling the user to interact with the target device via a Graphic User Interface (GUI).
The TSL2520 Daughter Card (TSL2520-DB) can also be purchased separately for users that do not require the EVM Controller Board.
