The MikroElektronika Ambient 17 Click is a compact add on board used to measure the amount of the present ambient light. This board features the TSL2572, a digital output ambient light sensor with an I2C interface from ams AG. The TSL2572 can detect a wide range of illuminance up to 60klx and provides excellent responsivity close to the human eyes response. It is designed to control the brightness in various applications based on ambient light availability, brightness for optimum visibility, and energy efficiency. This Click board is the most suitable for obtaining ambient light data for adjusting brightness in applications that require power saving and better visibility.
