Grove Sunlight Sensor

Sunlight Sensor Grove is a multi-channel digital light sensor, which has the ability to detect UV light, visible light, and infrared light. It offers excellent performance under a wide dynamic range and a variety of light sources including direct sunlight. Suitable for your Raspberry Pi weather station or smart irrigation system using Arduino if you need to monitor the visible spectrum. Features Multi-channel digital light sensor: can detect UV-light, visible light and infrared light Wide spectrum detection range: 280-950nm Easy to use: I2C Interface(7-bit), compatible with Grove port, just plug-and-play Programmable configuration: Versatile for various applications Low power consumption: 3.3/5V Supply, suitable for many microcontrollers and SBCs Description This device is based on SI1151, a new sensor from SiLabs. The Si1151 is a low-power, reflectance-based, infrared proximity, UV index, and ambient light sensor with an I2C digital interface and programmable-event interrupt output. This device offers excellent performance under a wide dynamic range and a variety of light sources including direct sunlight. Grove - Sunlight Sensor includes an onboard Grove connector, which helps you to connect it to your Arduino easily. You can use this device for making some projects which need to detect light, such as a simple UV detector for your Raspberry Pi weather station, or a smart irrigation system using Arduino if you need to monitor the visible spectrum. datasheet : https://github.com/Seeed-Studio/Grove_Sunlight_Sensor
