The The MikroElektronika's Ambient 10 Click is a compact add on board used to sense the amount of the present ambient light. This board features the APDS-9006-020, analogue output ambient light photo sensor from Broadcom Limited. It consists of a spectrally suited photo sensor, which provides excellent responsivity that is close to the response of the human eyes. Besides, it is also characterized by good output linearity across a wide illumination range, low sensitivity variation across various light sources, and comes with the ability to process the output signal in analogue or digital form. This Click board is the most suitable for obtaining ambient light data for adjusting brightness in applications that require power saving and better visibility.
