OPT3002: 100 mSec and 800 mSec Difference

Part Number: OPT3002

Hi Folks,

Tetracore Need to know how TI's achieved the Faster Sample time and If it is at all

As Accurate (Repeatable).  We see Large Quantization Error Why???

Is there a better OPTxxxx with the same, or better, performance and faster acquisition time.

Need More Data on Chip Operation!!!

Very Respectfully,

  • Hi Ephi,

    Regarding the 800ms and 100ms mode, the LSB for 800ms is the 10mLux minimum resolution of the device. In 100ms mode this increases to 80mLux so yes there is a trade off between resolution/LSB and the integration time on the current device. We do not have any released parts with better specs in the OPT300x line regarding this. What is the timeline for your current project? If you would like more info on our roadmap please send me an email at: bhandari at ti.com and we can talk further.

    Best,

    Alex
