Overview
Das UVC Click Board™ ist eine Ultraviolett-Sensorplatine, die ergänzt UVC Light Click Board™ für eine ultimative Ultraviolettlösung. Die Platine basiert auf einem Ultraviolettsensor GUVC-T21GH von GenUV, der UVC-Spektrum im Bereich von 220 nm bis 280 nm und Lichtintensitäten von 0 mW/cm² bis 9,3 mW/cm² messen kann.
Dank seiner hohen Empfindlichkeit und guten Sonnenblindheit kann es eine perfekte Lösung für die Überwachung von Sterilisationslampen sein, die bei der keimtötenden ultravioletten Bestrahlung (UVGI) verwendet werden, einer Desinfektionsmethode, die im Kampf gegen Viren und Bakterien zu einem unverzichtbaren Instrument wird.
Der UVC Click Board™ verfügt über zwei Möglichkeiten zum Lesen der UV-Sensorausgabe: direkter analoger Ausgabewert und digitale Ausgabe dank des MCP3221-ADC-Konverters.

How Does The UVC Click Board™ Work?
The UVC Click Board™ can provide reliable and stable UVC light intensity value by using GUVC-T21GH sensor which have spectral detection range of 220nm - 280nm with output responsivity of 0.6mV/nW (at 254nm). Light intensity is converted in digital value by using MCP3221 a successive approximation A/D converter (ADC) with a 12-bit resolution.
Communication to the MCP3221 is performed using a 2-wire, I2C compatible interface. Standard (100 kHz) and Fast (400 kHz) I2C modes are available with the device. An on-chip conversion clock enables independent timing for the I2C and conversion clocks.
To get reliable readings from sensor, ADC power and voltage reference is supplied from MCP1501T-33E/RW a buffered voltage reference with 3.3V output capable of sourcing up to 20mA of current as a low-drift bandgap-based reference. The bandgap uses chopper-based amplifiers, effectively reducing the drift to zero.
Second way of reading output voltage from sensor is by placing 0 ohm resistor on JP2 position labeled on PCB and reading analog value from AN pin on mikroBUS™. This way you can relay on external voltage reference and ADC with some other desired specifications for your application and you can measure light power intensity up to 14.1 mW/cm².
An SMD jumper labeled as VCC SEL can be moved to the desired position, allowing both 3.3V and 5V MCUs to be used with the UVC Click Board™.
