UV SENSOR
(ML8511 Data Sheet)

ML8511 is Oki’s factory calibrated UV sensor. This is the first UV sensor on the market that is factory calibrated saving time and effort for customers looking to implement UV Sensing in their products.

Description

The ML8511 is a UV light sensor, which is suitable for acquiring UV intensity indoors or outdoors. The ML8511 is equipped with an internal amplifier, which converts photo-current to voltage depending on the UV intensity. This unique feature offers an easy interface to external circuits such as ADC. In the power down mode, typical standby current is 0.1mA, thus enabling a longer battery life.

Features

• Optical sensor for UV-A and UV-B
• Analog voltage output
• Low supply current (300 mA typ. ) and Low standby current (0.1mA typ. )
• Small and thin surface mount package

Functions

• UV sensor (PN-photodiode)
• Current-to-voltage converting amplifier

Package

12-pin QFN SMD (1.0mm terminal pitch)
