Designed for dimming LCD displays in mobile phones and laptops, the SensorEyeC series MLX75304 light sensor has a price of $0.50 in OEM quantities. The 3 x 3-mm sensor’s dynamic range — in excess of 100 dB — suits it for situations ranging from high brightness to low light.
A monolithic IC sensor, its integrated photodiode, transimpedance amplifier, and output stage not only minimize manufacturing cost, but also produces a highly linear response and low temperature dependency. Its frequency output assures precision control under all lighting conditions while simplifying the sensor interface. ($0.50 ea / OEM qty samples available now.)
