The ams TCS3408 series is an ultra-high sensitivity light-to-digital converter that features ambient light and colour sensing and selective flicker detection. The ambient light and colour sensing function provide five concurrent ambient light sensing channels as red, green, blue, clear, and wideband. The RGB and clear channels have a UV/IR blocking filter. This architecture accurately measures ambient light and enables the calculation of illuminance, chromaticity, and colour temperature to manage display appearance.
