Product Introduction

WH11867UF is a light-to-digital converter that combines a photodiode, current amplifier, analog circuits, and a digital signal processor.

The Ambient Light Sensor (ALS) has a built-in filter that suppresses the infrared spectrum and provides a spectral response close to that of the human eye. The ALS can detect from darkness to direct sunlight with a selectable detection range of approximately 40 dB. Dual-channel output (human eye) ensures a good light ratio under different lighting conditions. The ALS has a good light ratio under different lighting conditions.

WH11867UF features programmable interrupt with high/low thresholds.
