Microduino Light indicator-Digital tube(TSL2561)

Language	English

Objective This tutorial will teach you to use the TSL2561 sensor and use digital tube to dispaly the result. Equipment Microduino-Core Microduino-FT232R Microduino-Weatherstation Other equipment USB cable Breadboard Jumper Breadboard Digital tube 220Ω resistor TSL2561 light sensor: 文件:TSL2561.jpg 600px Product overview TSL2561 is a light-digital converter which converts light into digital signal output, contains I2C interface or SMBus interface. Each device connected to a photosensitive diode tube and infrared photosensitive diode on a single CMOS integrated circuit. The integrated circuit has 20bit dynamic range optimal light response ability. Features： Programmable to set light intensity's threshold, when the actual light intensity exceeds the threshold sends a interrupt signal; Digital output meets standard SMBus (TSL2560) and I2C (TSL2561) bus protocol; Analog gain and digital output time programmable control; 1.25mm x 1.75mm ultra small encapsulated, in low power mode, the power consumption only has 0.75 mW; Automatic inhibition 50 Hz/60 Hz light wave.

Step 3: Set up circuit, as follows: 文件:Microduino数码管关照指示器连接图(TSL2561).jpg 600px Step 4：Run program. Step 5：Observe digital tube, cover the light sensor with the hand and then let it see the light again, look at the digital tube change. Result Cover the TSL2561 sensor with the hand, the digital tube's value will decrease, put the hand away, the value will increase. Video http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XNjkyMzUwMDc2.html
