VD6283 on Arduino UNO

[SBurc.1]

Hello everyone,

i bought the X-Nucleo-6283A1 development Board from ST together with an Nucleo-F401RE Developmentboard.

I have also installed the GUI and it works ok, the calculation of CCT is not performing correct, but thats ok so far...

Now i wanted to perform the whole operation by myself on an Arduino UNO.

Like other members already mentioned, the datasheet is not very good, i set everything up and i am able to read out Device ID, Silicon rev, ...

but no matter what i do, i cant read out the ALS Channels.

The datasheet mentions a "driver API" but there is no possibility to download anything.

Can someone tell me where to get more Informationen about this topic, or has done the same on a different Controller not provided by ST?

Otherwise my company will not use this sensor for their product.

Kind regards

Sebastian Burchert

Hello,

Thank you for your interest for our products. 

However, currently, the driver is not ready to be published on st.com.

We are planning a release of it by beginning of 2024. 

Sorry for the delay,

Best regards

Anne

if i want to use the sensor in one of our products how can i get the values of the sensor without using the driver?

..as always : read ds and write your own "driver" .

(i did it for making an ambient back-light  for my TV , with similar sensor APDS9960 ; 3 or 4 hours and ready.)

depends on what you want to do with it, ie CCT calculation might be more difficult game. :)

>i cant read out the ALS Channels

so you didnt read ds long enough ... no valid setting for working mode , i assume.
