DESCRIPTION

VEML3328 sensor senses red, green, blue, clear, and IR

light by incorporating photodiodes, amplifiers, and analog /

digital circuits into a single CMOS chip. With this sensor, the

brightness and color temperature of a display backlight can

be adjusted based on the ambient light source, and it can

differentiate indoor from outdoor lighting environments.
