●Measurement mode explanation Measurement Mode H-Resolution Mode L-Resolution Mode Measurement Time. Typ. 120ms. Typ. 16ms. Resolution 1 Lx. 4 Lx.
We recommend to use H-Resolution Mode. Measurement time (integration time) of H-Resolution Mode is so long that some kind of noise(including in 50Hz / 60Hz noise) is rejected. And H-Resolution Mode is 1 lx resolution so that it is suitable for darkness (less than 10 lx) ●Explanation of Asynchronous reset and Reset command "0000_0111" 1) Asynchronous reset All registers are reset. It is necessary on power supply sequence. Please refer "Timing chart for VCC and DVI power supply sequence" in this page. It is power down mode during DVI = 'L'. 2) Reset command Reset command is for only reset Illuminance data register. (reset value is '0') It is not necessary even power supply sequence. It is used for removing previous measurement result. This command is not working in power down mode, so that please set the power on mode before input this command.

●Application circuit example of DVI terminal The DVI terminal is an asynchronous reset terminal. Please note that there is a possibility that IC doesn't operate normally if the reset section is not installed after the start-up of VCC. (Please refer to the paragraph of "Timing chart for VCC and DVI power supply sequence") The description concerning SDA and the terminal SCL is omitted in this application circuit example. Please design the 2 application the standard of the I C bus as it finishes being satisfactory. Moreover, the description concerning the terminal ADDR is omitted. Please refer to the paragraph of "Timing chart for VCC and DVI power supply sequence" about the terminal ADDR design. ex 1) The control signal line such as CPU is connected.

Notes when CR is inserted between VCC and DVI
Please note that there is a possibility that reset section (1µs) can not be satisfied because the power supply is turned on when the rise time of VCC is slow When VCC is turned off, the DVI voltage becomes higher than VCC voltage but IC destruction is not occurred if recommended constant (R1 = 1kOhm, C1 = 1µF) is used. Please note that there is a possibility that Reset section (1µsec) cannot be satisfied if wait time is not enough long after turning off VCC. (It is necessary to consider DVI voltage level after turning off VCC.)
