MAX44000PMB1

MAX44000PMB1 Peripheral Module

Description

The MAX44000PMB1 peripheral module provides the necessary hardware to interface the MAX44000 ambient and infrared proximity sensor to any system that utilizes PmodK-compatible expansion ports configurable for I2C communication. The IC combines a wide-dynamic range ambient light sensor with an integrated infrared (IR) proximity sensor. The on-chip ambient light sensor has the ability to make wide dynamic range 0.03 lux to 65,535 lux measurements. An on-chip IR proximity detector is matched with an integrated IR LED driver. All readings are available on an I2C communication bus.

Refer to the MAX44000 IC data sheet for detailed information regarding operation of the IC.
