INTEGRATION TIME IN INTERNAL TIMING MODE
This timing mode is programmed in the command register
00(hex) Bit 5. Most applications will be using this timing
mode. When using the Internal Timing Mode, f

INTEGRATION TIME IN EXTERNAL TIMING MODE
This timing mode is programmed in the command register
00(hex) Bit 5. External Timing Mode is recommended when
integration time can be synchronized to an external signal
such as a PWM to eliminate noise.
To read the light count DATA output, the device needs three

Noise Rejection
In general, integrating type ADC’s have excellent
noise-rejection characteristics for periodic noise sources
whose frequency is an integer multiple of the integration
time. For instance, a 60Hz AC unwanted signal’s sum from
0ms to k*16.66ms (k = 1,2...k
device’s integration time to be an integer multiple of the
periodic noise signal, greatly improves the light sensor
output signal in the presence of noise.
Maximum Ambient Intensity Condition
The operation of ambient light sensing (ALS) within the
ISL29013 utilizes two diodes, D1 and D2. The diodes are
measured sequentially and their outputs are converted with
an ADC. The output of the ALS is the difference between
these two measurements. In typical applications, the
ISL29013 is installed behind a dark cover window. In this
low-light condition, both D1 and D2 operate linearly and the
ALS output is linear as well (Figures 19 and 20). In brighter
environments, however, D1 and D2 can be subject to
saturation. As the ambient light grows bright enough to
subject one or both diodes to saturation, the ALS count
(output) decreases and eventually reaches zero in deep
saturation (Figure 18). When using the ISL29013 in high lux
applications, be sure to choose a low R
saturation at Range4, the lowest gain. For example,
