The proximity sensor is an 8-bit ADC which operates in a similar
fashion. When proximity sensing is enabled, the IRDR pin will
drive a user-supplied infrared LED, the emitted IR reflects off an
object (i.e., a human head) back into the ISL29029, and a sensor
converts the reflected IR wave to a current signal in 0.54ms. The
ADC subtracts the IR reading before and after the LED is driven
(to remove ambient IR such as sunlight), and converts this value
to a digital count stored in Register 0x8.
The ISL29029 is designed to run two conversions concurrently: a
proximity conversion and an ALS (or IR) conversion. Please note that
because of the conversion times, the user must let the ADCs perform
one full conversion first before reading from I
PROX_DATA (wait 0.54ms) or ALSIR_DT1/2 (wait 100ms). The timing
between ALS and Prox conversions is arbitrary (as shown in Figure 3).
The ALS runs continuously with new data available every 100ms. The
proximity sensor runs continuously with a time between conversions
decided by PROX_SLP (Register 1 Bits [6:4]).
Changes from ISL29028
The ISL29029 is identical to the ISL29028 with a few small
changes: the x29 photodiode structure has been improved for better
ALS linearity in high-IR conditions, and the x29’s PROX interrupt
scheme behaves as an out-of-window comparator (compared to the
x28’s PROX level-comparator with hysteresis). If the internal
registers are of concern to the customer, please contact Intersil for a
list of changes (internal register changes are independent of part
performance).
Ambient Light and IR Sensing
The ISL29029 is set for ambient light sensing when Register bit
ALSIR_MODE = 0 and ALR_EN = 1. The light-wavelength response of
the ALS appears as shown in Figure 6. ALS measuring mode (as
opposed to IR measuring mode) is set by default.
When the part is programmed for infrared (IR) sensing
(ALSIR_MODE = 1; ALS_EN = 1), infrared light is converted into a
current and digitized by the same ALS ADC. The result of an IR
conversion is strongly related to the amount of IR energy incident
on our sensor, but is unitless and is referred to in digital counts.

Proximity Sensing
When proximity sensing is enabled (PROX_EN = 1), the external
IR LED is driven for 0.1ms by the built-in IR LED driver through
the IRDR pin. The amplitude of the IR LED current depends on
Register 1 bit 3: PROX_DR. If this bit is low, the load will see a
fixed 110mA current pulse. If this bit is high, the load on IRDR
will see a fixed 220mA current pulse as seen in Figure 4.
When the IR from the LED reaches an object and gets reflected
back into the ISL29029, the reflected IR light is converted into
current as per the IR spectral response shown in Figure 7. One
entire proximity measurement takes 0.54ms for one conversion
(which includes 0.1ms spent driving the LED), and the period
between proximity measurements is decided by PROX_SLP
(sleep time) in Register 1 Bits 6:4.
Average LED driving current consumption is given by Equation 1.
A typical IRDR scheme is 220mA amplitude pulses every 800ms,
which yields 28μA DC.
Total Current Consumption
Total current consumption is the sum of I
pin sinks current (as shown in Figure 4) and the average IRDR
