VCNL36828P is a compact VCSEL-based proximity sensor for short-range optical detection with low idle current and dual I2C addressing.

Best for

  • Short-range proximity sensing in space-constrained portable products
  • Applications requiring two selectable I2C addresses
  • Low-idle-current optical sensing

Avoid if

  • The design cannot provide a VCSEL supply above the required current-dependent minimum
  • A long-range distance sensor is required

Check before use

  • Validate proximity counts with the final cover window and target material
  • Select the VCSEL supply voltage for the programmed drive current
  • Use a repeated-start condition for I2C reads
