Functional description

the current consumption scales accordingly i.e. the average current consumption at 1 Hz

under the same conditions would be 0.17 mA.

Figure 14. Typical ranging current consumption (10 Hz sampling rate)

The minimum average current consumption in Figure 14. is 1.5 mA, 0.5 mA of which comes

from pre-calibration before each measurement and 1.0 mA from post-processing (readout

averaging). Pre-calibration is a fixed overhead but readout averaging can be reduced or

effectively disabled by setting the READOUT__AVERAGING_SAMPLE_PERIOD{0x10A} to

zero (default setting is 48).

Note:

Decreasing the READOUT__AVERAGING_SAMPLE_PERIOD will increase sampling

noise. It is recommended that any change in setting be properly

evaluated in the end application.

Minimum current consumption scales with sampling rate i.e. at a sampling rate of 1 Hz the

current consumption associated with pre- and post-processing will be 0.15

μA.

Current consumption calculator

Table 11. gives a breakdown of typical current consumption for pre-calibration, ranging and

readout averaging.

Current consumption can then be calculated as follows:

I (

μA) = sampling_rate * [Q1 + (Q2 * RESULT__RANGE_RETURN_CONV_TIME in ms) +

Q3 * (1.3 + (READOUT__AVERAGING_SAMPLE_PERIOD * 0.0645 ms))]

Table 7. gives typical convergence times for different target reflectance.

So, for example, RESULT__RANGE_RETURN_CONV_TIME for a 3% target at 50 mm

is 4.35 ms. At 10 Hz sampling rate this gives:

I (

μA) = 10 * [41.6 + (22 * 4.35) + 25 * (1.3 + (48 * 0.0645))] = 2472 μA
