High-accuracy detection of visible and near-infrared light in automotive applications based on the OPT4003-Q1
Light 3 Click is a compact add-on board for precise ambient light measurement in automotive applications. This board features the OPT4003-Q1, an automotive-grade digital ambient light sensor from Texas Instruments. This digital ambient light sensor excels in detecting both visible and near-infrared light with high accuracy, thanks to its dual-channel functionality and filters that mimic the human eye's response while efficiently segregating NIR light. The board features semi-logarithmic output for extensive light intensity range coverage, automatic gain adjustment for optimal resolution without manual intervention, and flexible configuration options to suit various application needs. With its advanced optical filters, the Light 3 Click is an ideal upgrade from traditional light sensing solutions, offering precision, dynamic range, and efficient NIR filtration. It applies to various automotive systems, including interior and exterior lighting, entertainment units, adaptive mirrors, and head-up displays.

ABOUT CLICK BOARDS™
Click boards™ follow a modular prototyping add-on board standard invented by MIKROE, which revolutionizes the way users add new functionalities to development boards. Click boards™ enable design engineers to change peripherals easily, cutting months off development time. To enable hundreds of Click boards to be connected to the microcontroller or microprocessor, we have invented socket standard - mikroBUS™. This uniform connection interface allows you to connect any Click boards to a main board instantly. The company releases a new Click boards nearly every day at 10am, and many leading microcontroller companies including Microchip, NXP, Infineon, Dialog, STM, Analog Devices, Renesas and Toshiba now include the mikroBUS™ socket on their development boards.
ABOUT MIKROE
MIKROE is committed to changing the embedded electronics industry through the use of time-saving industry-standard hardware and software solutions. With unique concepts like Remote Access, One New Product/Day, Multi-Architectural IDE and most recently, the EmbeddedWiki™ platform with more then million ready-for-use projects, MIKROE combines its dev boards, compilers, smart displays, programmers/debuggers and 1600+ Click peripheral boards to dramatically cut development time. mikroBUS™; mikroSDK™; SiBRAIN™ and DISCON™ are open standards and mikroBUS only has been adopted by over 100 leading microcontroller companies and integrated on their development boards.
