Description

The VD6283 (1.83 x 1.0 x 0.55 mm) is ST's new color sensor with advanced light

flicker extraction. Light measurement is fast and accurate thanks to an individual

ADC and a readout for each color channel. The VD6283 uses hybrid color filters with

precise responses allowing accurate computation of the correlated color temperature

(CCT) and Lux information. The VD6283 can be used for display brightness

management or scene light correction.

With a patented architecture and a high-performance photodiode design, the VD6283

can extract light flickering frequencies to avoid “banding effects” on videos, or check

that they are safe for human eye. Additionally, the VD6283 is the only sensor able to

extract different light flicker waveforms from 100 Hz and 2 kHz, including LED square

signals, that can run flicker operations simultaneously with ALS operations.

Applications

• True tone color-sensing IC for screen brightness adjustment, and white balance

color assistance

• Lux and CCT measurement

• Light frequency extraction for flicker correction assistance
