Vishay VCNL36687S Proximity Sensor

The VCNL36687S is a compact proximity sensor integrated with a high-power VCSEL laser diode, photodiodes, amplifiers, and A/D converters in a single package. It features an I2C interface and programmable thresholds for proximity detection, with intelligent cancellation to eliminate cross talk. Operating from 1.65 V to 1.95 V, it detects objects up to 20 cm with low pulse current of 20 mA. Ideal for mobile devices, AR/VR headsets, and power-efficient applications, it offers fast response, adjustable persistence, and proximity detection logic output for reliable operation and low false triggers.
