DESCRIPTION
KEY FEATURES Near Human Eye Spectral Response Very Low IR Sensitivity Highly Accurate & Repeatable Output Current vs. Light Scalable Output Voltage Temperature Stable Integrated High Gain Photo Current Amplifiers No Optical Filters Needed
APPLICATIONS
The LX1974 is a low cost silicon light sensor with spectral response that closely emulates the human eye. Patented circuitry produces peak spectral response at 520nm, with IR response less than 5%, of the peak response, above 900nm. The photo sensor is a PIN diode array with a linear, accurate, and very repeatable current transfer function. High gain current mirrors on the chip multiply the PIN diode photo-current to a sensitivity level that can be voltage scaled with a standard value external resistor. Output current from this simple to use two-pin device can be used directly or converted to a voltage by placing it in series with a single resistor at either of its two pins.
Dynamic range is determined by the resistors (typically in the range of 10K to 100K) and power supply values. Typically the LX1974 needs only 1.8V of headroom to operate at 1000 Lux illumination. Internal temperature compensation allows dark current to be kept below 200nA over the full specification temperature range (-40 to +85C), providing high accuracy at low light levels. Usable ambient light conditions range is from 1 to more than 5000 Lux. The LX1974 is optimized for controlling back lighting systems in low cost consumer products such as LCD TV, portable computers, and digital cameras.

APPLICATION NOTE
LIGHT UNITS In converting from W/cm to lux it is necessary to define the light source. Lux is a unit for the measurement of illuminance, which is the photometric flux density or visible light flux density. Whereas W/cm2 is a measurement of irradiance or the measurement of electromagnetic radiation, flux both visible and invisible. The first step in the conversion process is to convert irradiance to illuminance, which essentially involves running the irradiant flux through a photopic filter. In normal ambient, a photopic curve is used and in dark ambient, a scotopic curve (dark adapted eye) is used. If the light is composed of only one wavelength, a conversion chart will tell the conversion factor to convert W/m2 to lux (lumens/m2). If more than one wavelength is used, the light spectrum of the irradiance must be applied to the photopic filter to determine the resultant illuminance. The most sensitive wavelength for the normal light adapted human eye is 555nm, which corresponds to yellowish-green light. At 555nm, the conversion factor is 683 Lux = 1W/m2 = 100W/cm2. Therefore 14.6W/cm2 = 100 lux at 555nm.

If the photo sensor had a truly photopic response, it would produce the same output current for the same number of lux, regardless of the color of the light. However, because the match is not perfect, there is still wavelength dependency particularly at the ends of the visible spectrum. In the case of the LX1974 the peak photo response is at 520nm, however depending on the light source, what the human eye perceives as `white' light may actually be composed of peak wavelengths of light other than 520nm. For instance, a typical fluorescent lamp includes dominant light not only near 550nm but also at 404 and 435nm. Incandescent light sources such as standard tungsten lights generate substantial IR radiation out beyond 2000nm. For ease of automatic testing of the LX1974 the ATE (automatic test equipment) light source is configured with white LED's whose current is adjusted to output a calibrated flux density at 550nm. This allows consistent and repeatable testing of the sensor but corresponds to a light source unlike that typically found in an office, home or sunlit environment. In practice, the user needs to place the sensor in the target environment and calibrate the sensors output current range to match the application objective. This is easily accomplished by adjusting the output resistor, which sets the sensor's gain.

APPLICATION EXAMPLES
The following examples present both fully automatic (no user input) and semi-automatic to fully manual override implementations. These general guidelines are applicable to a wide variety of potential light control applications. The LX1974 can be used to control the brightness input of CCFL inverters (like Microsemi's PanelMatchTM inverter family, or line of controller IC's). Likewise, it can interface well with LED drivers like the LX1990 and LX1991 sink LED drivers, or boost drivers like the LX1992, LX1993, LX1994, and LX1995. In each specific application, it is important to recognize the need to correlate the output current of the LX1974 for the target environment and its ambient light conditions. The mechanical mounting of the sensor, light aperture hole size, use of a light pipe or bezel are critical in determining the response of the LX1974 for a given exposure of light.

The output node will actually reach 1.25V when the source current from the LX1974 is only about 44A since about 6A of current will be contributed from R1. This assumes a high impedance input to the LED driver. In Figure 5, user adjustable bias control has been added to allow control over the minimum and maximum output voltage. This allows the user to adjust the output brightness to personal preference over a limited range. In addition, an equivalent DC voltage may replace the PWM input source.

Figure 6 shows how a fully manual override can be quickly added to the example in figure 5. In addition to the gate to turn on and off the LX1974, a diode has been inserted to isolate the sensor when it is disabled.

Figure 4 - Fully Automatic Dimming
The example in figure 4 shows a fully automatic dimming solution with no user interaction. Choose R1 and R2 values for any desired minimum brightness and slope. Choose C1 to adjust response time to filter 50/60 Hz room lighting. As an example, let's say you wish to generate an output voltage from 0.25V to 1.25V to drive the input of an LED driver controller. The 0.25V represents the minimum LED brightness and 1.25V represents the maximum. The first step would be to determine the ratio of R1 and R2.
3.0V - 1 = 11 x R2 0.25V Next the value of R2 can be calculated based on the maximum output source current coming from the LX1974 under the application's maximum light exposure, lets say this has been determined to be about 50A . Thus R2 can be calculated; first order as follows: 1.25V R2 = = 25K R1 = 11 x R2 = 275K 50A
R1 = R2

APPLICATIONS APPLICATIONS
The preceding examples represent just a few of the potential sensor applications. Further details and additional circuits can be found in the application note (AN-28) LX1970 Visible Light Sensor located in the application section of Microsemi's website: www.microsemi.com. Although this application note is written around the LX1970 visible light sensor the circuits can be easily adapted for use with the LX1974.
