MikroElektronika Ambient 2 Click
Overview
Ambient 2 Click is a compact add-on board that measures only the visible part of the light spectrum from any source (mimicking how humans see the light).
This board features the OPT3001, a digital output ambient light sensor with an I2C interface and interrupt from Texas Instruments. The sensor’s spectral response tightly matches the human eye’s photopic response and includes significant (99%) infrared rejection. It has a flexible and wide operating range for the ambient light sensor with a resolution of 0.01lux and full detectable illumination of 83865.6lux over a 23-bit effective dynamic range. This Click board™ is the most suitable for obtaining ambient light data in applications such as automatic residential and commercial lighting management.

Requirements
This shield can only be used with a board that provides a mikroBUS™ socket and defines a
mikrobus_i2c node label for the mikroBUS™ I2C interfac e. See Shields for more
details.
Programming
Set -DSHIELD=mikroe_ambient_2_click when you invoke west build. For example:
# From the root of the zephyr repository
west build -b mikroe_clicker_ra4m1 --shield mikroe_ambient_2_click samples/sensor/light_polling
