The TLS2561 is a digital light sensor which senses light on two wavelengths and outputs two 16 bit results. These values are accessed over an I2C bus. This test program simply reads and displays the ADC results. The manufacturer provides a C source example that can then be used to convert this to LUX. For now I’m not particularly interested in this feature. What is possibly of more interest is the interrupt capability of the device which may allow it to wake a slumbering MCU when light levels fall between certain values. This may be of use in a power saving context. More to follow but for now, source code for my various STM32L031 examples can be found over here on github
