Overview
Das Proximity 17 Click Board™ ist eine kompakte Zusatzplatine, die eine Näherungssensorlösung für den Nahbereich enthält. Diese Platine verfügt über das TMD2635, ein Miniatur-Näherungssensormodul von AMS AG. Das TMD2635 bietet erweiterte Näherungsmessung in einem winzigen und dünnen optischen Land Grid Array-Modul, das einen 940 nm Infrarot-Oberflächenemissionslaser mit vertikaler Kavität (IR VCSEL) enthält, der werkseitig für die IR-Näherungsreaktion kalibriert ist. Es bietet außerdem erweiterte Übersprechgeräuschunterdrückung durch eine Vielzahl von Offset-Anpassungen über eine digitale I2C-Schnellmodusschnittstelle, um unerwünschte IR-Energiereflexion am Sensor auszugleichen. Dieses Click Board™ ist für Verbraucher- und Industrieanwendungen geeignet.
Das Proximity 17 Click Board™ wird von einer mikroSDK-kompatiblen Bibliothek unterstützt, die Funktionen enthält, die die Softwareentwicklung vereinfachen. Dieses Click Board™ wird als vollständig getestetes Produkt geliefert und ist bereit für den Einsatz auf einem System, das mit der mikroBUS™-Buchse ausgestattet ist.
How Does The Proximity 17 Click Board™ Work?
The Proximity 17 Click Board™ is based on the TMD2635, a miniature close-range proximity sensor module from AMS AG. The TMD2635 implements a 940nm infrared VCSEL (Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser) factory calibrated for IR proximity response, alongside a digital I2C serial interface. The proximity detection feature provides object detection (e.g., close proximity) by photodiode detection of reflected IR energy sourced by the integrated VCSEL emitter. The proximity engine also features a wide range offset adjustment to compensate for unwanted IR energy reflection at the sensor. The results are further improved by automatic ambient light subtraction.
The TMD2635 does not require a specific Power-Up sequence but requires a supply voltage of 1.8V to work correctly. Therefore, a small regulating LDO is used, the MAX8511, providing a 1.8V out of both 5V and 3.3V mikroBUS™ power rails. Also, it can be shut down through software with a low standby current, allowing the power rails to remain powered at all times.
The Proximity 17 Click Board™ communicates with MCU using the standard I2C 2-Wire interface with a maximum clock frequency of 400kHz, fully adjustable through software registers with a 14-bit proximity result stored in a PDATA register. Since the sensor for operation requires a power supply of 1.8V, this Click board™ also features the PCA9306 and SN74LVC1T45 voltage-level translators. The I2C interface bus lines are routed to the voltage-level translators allowing this Click board™ to work with both 3.3V and 5V MCUs properly. Also, it uses an interrupt pin, the INT pin of the mikroBUS™ socket, used for when an interrupt occurs to alert the system when proximity result crosses upper or lower threshold settings.
The Proximity 17 Click Board™ can operate with both 3.3V and 5V logic voltage levels selected via the VCC SEL jumper. This way, it is allowed for both 3.3V and 5V capable MCUs to use the communication lines properly. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library that contains easy-to-use functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.
