Description

The LIGHTSOURCE01EVM is a stable uniform light source used for the calibration of ambient light sensors (ALS) and color sensors. This light source is designed to be used in production environments to calibrate and test final products containing TI light sensors. This stabilized light source can be used to simulate sunset (4200K CCT) and noon (6400K CCT) lighting modes. The light source serves is uniform and constant with less than ±1% variation in light output over time, and less than ±1% variation in uniformity on a 1 inch diameter area. The illuminance level and modes can be adjusted using the light source EVM GUI on ti.com.
