Note: In manual mode, exceeding the lux (max) causes an overload error (exponent = 1111).
To utilize the ultra-low power consumption of the IC in
end applications, an interrupt pin is provided to eliminate
the need for the system to poll the device continuously.
Since every clock and data bit transmitted on I
consume up to 1mA (assuming 1.8kI pullup resistor to
a 1.8V rail), minimizing the number of I
on the data bus can save a lot of power. In addition,
eliminating the need to poll the device frees up process-
ing resources for the master, improving overall system
performance.
The typical sequence of communication with the IC is
as follows:
1) Master reads lux reading from registers 0x03 and
