ML8511
UV Sensor with Voltage Output
GENERAL DISCRIPTION
The ML8511 is a UV sensor, which is suitable for acquiring UV intensity indoors or outdoors. The ML8511 is
equipped with an internal amplifier, which converts photo-current to voltage depending on the UV intensity.
This unique feature offers an easy interface to external circuits such as ADC. In the power down mode, typical
standby current is 0.1A, thus enabling a longer battery life.
FEATURES
• Photodiode sensitive to UV-A and UV-B
• Embedded operational amplifier
• Analog voltage output
• Low supply current (300A typ.) and low standby current (0.1A typ.)
• Small and thin surface mount package (4.0mm x 3.7mm x 0.73mm, 12-pin ceramic QFN)
APPLICATIONS
• Smart phone, Watch, Weather station,Bicycle navigation, Accessary, Gaming

TIMING CHART
Supply voltage and EN signal state should take one of the following procedures:
1. EN should be HIGH or LOW at the same time when VDD is applied.
2. EN should be HIGH or LOW while VDD is applied.
Output should be read after output voltage level becomes stable. Maximum time required until stable output
voltage reaches is 1 millisecond after EN goes HIGH.

Notes for Mounting the Surface Mount Type Package
The surface mount type packages are very susceptible to heat in reflow mounting and humidity absorbed in
storage. Therefore, before you perform reflow mounting, contact our responsible sales person for the product
name, package name, pin number, package code and desired mounting conditions (reflow method, temperature
and times).
Specifications are defined without considering the UV absorption by an external cover material.
Please contact our sales representativeus when the cover material is applied.
Do not press or rub the surface of the resin covering the top of the package where, which is on the UV-ray is
light received.
In addition, do not apply pressure at high temperature.
