Light click

Light Click is the add-on board with PD15-22CTR8 PIN photodiode, providing effective and easy way to measure ambient light intensity. It also features MAX6106 voltage reference and MCP3201 ADC with SPI interface. Measured ambient light intensity is sent as an analog or digital signal to the main board microcontroller. Light Click communicates through mikroBUS SPI (MISO, SCK, CS) and AN lines. PD15-22C-TR8 is a high photosensitive light sensor with fast response time. Provided SMD jumper allow user to select whether the board will be powered with 3.3V or 5V power supply.

PD15-22CTR8 has fast response time, high photo sensitivity and small junction capacitance. The device is Spectrally matched to visible and infrared emitting diode.
MCP3201 ADC provides SPI communication interface.
Both 3.3V and 5V power supply is supported.
