APDS-9004 Miniature Surface-Mount Ambient Light Photo Sensor Data Sheet Description The APDS-9004 is a low cost analog-output ambient light photo sensor in miniature chipLED lead-free, reverse surface mount package. It consists of a photo sensor, whose spectral response is close to CIE standard photopic observer. Hence, it provides an excellent responsivity that is close to the response of human eyes, as shown in Figure 2. It is suitable for portable applications with its ultra small package design. The APDS-9004 is ideal for applications in which the measurement of ambient light is used to control display backlighting. Mobile appliances such as the mobile phones and PDAs that draw heavy current from display backlighting will benefit from incorporating these photo sensor products in their designs by reducing power consumption significantly.

The temperature profile is divided into four process zones, each with different ∆ T/ ∆ time temperature change rates or duration. The ∆T/∆time rates or duration are detailed in the above table. The temperatures are measured at the component to printed circuit board connections. In process zone P1, the PC board and APDS-9004 pins are heated to a temperature of 150°C to activate the flux in the solder paste. The temperature ramp up rate, R1, is limited to 3°C per second to allow for even heating of both the PC board and APDS-9004 pins. Process zone P2 should be of sufficient time duration (100 to 180 seconds) to dry the solder paste. The temperature is raised to a level just below the liquidus point of the solder, usually 200°C (392°F). Process zone P3 is the solder reflow zone. In zone P3, the temperature is quickly raised above the liquidus point of solder to 255°C (491°F) for optimum results. The dwell time above the liquidus point of solder should be between 20 and 40 seconds. It usually takes about 20 seconds to assure proper coalescing of the solder balls into liquid solder and the formation of good solder connections. Beyond a dwell time of 40 seconds, the intermetallic growth within the solder connections becomes excessive, resulting in the formation of weak and unreliable connections. The temperature is then rapidly reduced to a point below the solidus temperature of the solder, usually 200°C (392°F), to allow the solder within the connections to freeze solid. Process zone P4 is the cool down after solder freeze. The cool down rate, R5, from the liquidus point of the solder to 25°C (77°F) should not exceed 6°C per second maximum. This limitation is necessary to allow the PC board and APDS-9004 pins to change dimensions evenly, putting minimal stresses on the APDS-9004. It is recommended to perform reflow soldering no more than twice. 9 Appendix A: SMT Assembly Application Note Solder Pad, Mask and Metal Stencil Aperture Metal Stencil For Solder Paste Printing Land Pattern PCBA Solder Mask Slot Opening for APDS9004 to be exposed on the Reverse Side of the PCBA Figure 1.

There is a constraint on the minimum size of the window, which is placed in front of the photo light sensor, so that it will not affect the angular response of the APDS-9004. This minimum dimension that is recommended will ensure at least a ±35° light reception cone. If a smaller window is required, a light pipe or light guide can be used. A light pipe or light guide is a cylindrical piece of transparent plastic, which makes use of total internal reflection to focus the light. The thickness of the window should be kept as minimum as possible because there is a loss of power in every optical window of about 8% due to reflection (4% on each side) and an additional loss of energy in the plastic material. Figure 5a and 5b illustrate the two types of window that we have recommended which could either be a flat window or a flat window with light pipe. Flat APDS-9004 Figure 5(a).

The window should be placed directly on top of the photo sensor to achieve better performance and if a flat window with a light pipe is used, dimension D2 should be 1.5mm to optimize the performance of APDS-9004. 2.1 Optical Window Material The material of the window is recommended to be polycarbonate. The surface finish of the plastic should be smooth, without any texture. The recommended plastic material for use as a window is available from Bayer AG and Bayer Antwerp N. V. (Europe), Bayer Corp.(USA) and Bayer Polymers Co., Ltd. (Thailand), as shown in Table 2.

APDS-9004 consists of a phototransistor that enables the photo sensor to produce a high gain photo current to a sufficient level that can be converted to voltage with a standard value of external resistor. APDS-9004 is then easily integrated into systems that use ADC input which is available for sampling of the external source, as shown in figure 7 below. The amount of converted voltage, Vout, is mainly dependant proportionally on the photo current which generated by the brightness of the light shone on the photo sensor and the load resistor used, RL. Increasing the brightness of the light or/and the load resistor will increase the output voltage. Brightness is measured as “LUX” unit, which describes how intense a light source that our eyes perceive. LUX meter is the equipment for “LUX” measurement. Light sources with the same LUX level appear at the same brightness to the human eyes. Vcc 2,3 Light Source APDS-9004 1 Vout A/D 4 C NC RL microcontroller Figure 7. Configuration of APDS-9004 being used directly Selection of the load resistor RL will determine the amount of current-to-voltage conversion in the circuit. Light source e.g. fluorescent light consists of ac noise about 100Hz frequency. A capacitor of 10uF, which acting as a low-pass filter, is recommended to add in parallel with the load resistor to by-pass this ripples.
