Waveshare TSL25911FN High Sensitivity Ambient Light Sensor Module
The Waveshare TSL25911FN Ambient Light Sensor Module is a high-sensitivity digital light-to-digital converter compatible with 3.3V/5V systems like Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and STM32. It provides precise ambient light intensity measurement from 0 to 88,000 lux via a fixed I2C interface.
Features
- High-sensitivity digital ambient light sensor based on TSL25911FN chip.
- Extremely wide dynamic range of 600M:1 for operation in diverse lighting conditions.
- I2C interface with a fixed address (0x29) for simple microcontroller integration.
- Onboard voltage translator ensures compatibility with both 3.3V and 5V logic systems.
- Includes programmable interrupt output with upper and lower threshold settings.

The Waveshare TSL25911FN module integrates a sophisticated light-sensing IC that combines broadband (visible + infrared) and infrared-only photodiodes on a single CMOS chip. Dual integrating analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) digitize the photodiode currents, providing a direct digital output via I2C. This architecture minimizes noise interference and allows a host processor to calculate accurate illuminance (lux) using an empirical formula that approximates human eye response.
Designed for stability across varying environments, the sensor features an exceptional 600M:1 dynamic range and a sensitivity down to 188 µLux. The embedded infrared-responding photodiode enables precise measurements even in environments with strong infrared background noise. The module includes a voltage level translator, making it ready to use with both 3.3V and 5V development boards without external logic shifting.
