Vishay Semiconductors VCNL3036X01 High Res Digital Proximity Sensors
Vishay Semiconductors VCNL3036X01 High-Resolution Digital Proximity Sensors with an I2C interface integrate a mux and a driver for up to three external IREDs into one small package. The VCNL3036X01 series utilizes the CMOS process to incorporate photodiodes, amplifiers, and analog-to-digital converting circuits into a single chip. Vishay VCNL3036X01 Digital Proximity Sensors provide programmable interrupt features of individual high and low thresholds, allowing optimization of resources and power saving on the microcontroller. The sensors offer an operating voltage of 2.5V to 3.6V and are ideal for force feedback applications.
