The ams TMD2712 series features proximity detection and digital ambient light sensing. The extremely tiny 1mm x 2mm module incorporates an IR VCSEL and factory calibrated VCSEL driver. The proximity detection feature provides object detection by photodiode detection of reflected IR energy. Detect/release events are interrupt driven, and occur when proximity result crosses upper and/or lower threshold settings. The ALS and IR photodiodes have dedicated data converters producing 16-bit data.
