Optical Sensors
Optical Sensors:
Proximity - are designed for use to detect the presence of object or motion detection in various industrial, mobile, electronic appliances and retail automations.
Ambient Light - provide precise light detection for a wide range of ambient brightness and are commonly used in LCD Backlight Control in mobile phones, LCD TV/Panel and Notebook applications.
