The ams TCS3701 color and proximity sensor features ambient light and RGB color sensing in parallel with proximity detection in a low-profile 2.5 × 2.0 × 0.5mm package. The device provides five concurrent ambient light-sensing channels: Red, Green, Blue, Clear, and Wideband. The RGB and Clear channels have a UV/IR blocking filter. This architecture accurately measures ambient light. It enables the calculation of illuminance, chromaticity, and color temperature to manage display appearance.
