The TSL2560 and TSL2561 Light-to-Digital Converters are designed specifically for use in display panels (LCD, OLED, etc.) to help extend battery life and provide optimum viewing in diverse lighting conditions. These single-chip devices enable display panel backlighting, which can account for up to 30-40 percent of total platform power, to be managed automatically.
The TSL2560 (SMBus interface) is intended for use in notebook and tablet PCs.
The TSL2561 (I²C interface) is ideal for use in LCD monitors, flat-panel televisions and cell phones. The TSL2561 also finds applications in digital cameras where it can be used to manage exposure control. Other applications for both devices include street light control, security lighting, sunlight harvesting and machine vision
