summary VCSEL datasheet Optical Sensors application note
In summary, Vishay’s VCNL36687S integrates a proximity sensor and a high power VCSEL into one small package. It incorporates photodiodes, amplifiers, and analog-to-digital converting circuits into a single chip. Programmable features like the interrupts for individual high and low thresholds offer the best utilization of resource and power savings of the microcontroller. With just 20 mA pulse current, the VCNL36687S can detect the Kodak Gray Card in a distance of 20 cm, where other sensors need 200 mA. The sensing functions are easily operated via the simple command format of I²C interface protocol.
