General Description

General Description
AS7341 is an 11-channel spectrometer for spectral identification and color matching applications used
in mobile devices. The spectral response is defined in the wavelengths from approximately 350nm to
1000nm. 6 channels can be processed in parallel by independent ADCs while the other channels are
accessible via a multiplexer. 8 optical channels cover the visible spectrum, one channel can be used
to measure near infra-red light and one channel is a photo diode without filter (“clear”). The device
also integrates a dedicated channel to detect 50Hz or 60Hz ambient light flicker. The flicker detection
engine can also buffer data for calculating other flicker frequencies externally. The NIR channel in
combination with the other VIS channel may provide information of surrounding ambient light
conditions (light source detection).The device can also be synchronized to external signals via pin
GPIO.
AS7341 integrates filters into standard CMOS silicon via Nano-optic deposited interference filter
technology and its package provides a built in aperture to control the light entering the sensor array.
Control and Spectral data access is implemented through a serial I²C interface. The device is available
in an ultra-low profile package with dimensions of 3.1mm x 2mm x 1mm.
