Component/Hub
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
The ``apds9960`` sensor platform allows you to use your APDS9960 RGB and gesture sensors
|
|
(`datasheet <https://cdn.sparkfun.com/datasheets/Sensors/Proximity/apds9960.pdf>`__,
|
|
`SparkFun`_) with ESPHome.
|
|
The :ref:`I²C <i2c>` is
|
|
required to be set up in your configuration for this sensor to work.

Configuration variables:
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
The configuration is made up of three parts: The central component, individual sensors,
|
|
and direction binary sensors.
|
|
|
|
Base Configuration:
|
|
|
|
- **address** (*Optional*, int): The I²C address of the sensor. Defaults to ``0x39``.
|
|
- **update_interval** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): The interval
|
|
to check the sensor. Defaults to ``60s``.
|
|
- **led_drive** (*Optional*, int): The LED drive level in mA. One of 100mA, 50mA, 25mA, 12.5mA. Defaults to ``100mA``.
|
|
- **proximity_gain** (*Optional*, int): The proximity gain level. One of 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x. Defaults to ``4x``.
|
|
- **ambient_light_gain** (*Optional*, int): The ambient light gain level. One of 1x, 4x, 16x, 64x. Defaults to ``4x``.
|
|
- **gesture_led_drive** (*Optional*, int): The gesture LED drive level in mA. One of 100mA, 50mA, 25mA, 12.5mA. Defaults to ``100mA``.
|
|
- **gesture_gain** (*Optional*, int): The proximity gain level. One of 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x. Defaults to ``4x``.
|
|
- **gesture_wait_time** (*Optional*, int): The gesture wait time in ms. One of 0ms, 2.8ms, 5.6ms, 8.4ms, 14ms, 22.4ms, 30.8ms, 39.2ms. Defaults to ``2.8ms``.

|
Sensor
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
The ``apds9960`` sensor allows you to use your :doc:`apds9960` to perform different
|
|
measurements.
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **type** (**Required**, string): The type of sensor measurement. One of
|
|
|
|
- ``CLEAR``
|
|
- ``RED``
|
|
- ``GREEN``
|
|
- ``BLUE``
|
|
- ``PROXIMITY``
|
|
|
|
- All other options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
|
|
|
|
Binary Sensor
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
The ``apds9960`` binary sensor allows you to use your :doc:`apds9960` to perform different
|
|
measurements.
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
|
|
- **direction** (**Required**, string): The direction to measure. One of:
|
|
|
|
- ``UP``
|
|
- ``DOWN``
|
|
- ``LEFT``
|
|
- ``RIGHT``
|
|
|
|
- All other options from :ref:`Binary Sensor <config-binary_sensor>`.
|
|
|
|
Troubleshooting:
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
With some APDS9960 modules the VL pin needs to be supplied with 3.3V for gesture sensing to work. The VL pin provides power for the infrared LED that is used to detect gestures. There may be two pads on the module which, if shorted with a solder joint, cause the main VCC power pin to supply power for the infrared LED as well. However, providing a separate power supply via the VL pin may help to isolate the rest of the circuit from noise created by pulsing the infrared LED at relatively high power.
