The CCS811 is an ultra-low power digital gas sensor solution which integrates a metal oxide (MOX) gas sensor for monitoring indoor air quality (IAQ) including a wide range of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), a microcontroller unit (MCU), an Analog-to-Digital converter (ADC), and an I²C interface.

The iAQ-core Indoor Air Quality Module is a low-cost, ultracompact solution for detecting poor air quality. This module uses micromachined metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) technology to detect a broad range of VOCs while correlating directly with CO2 and TVOC levels in the room.

BELAGO is a proprietary infrared dot-pattern illuminator for stereoscropic imaging platforms with eye-safety feature. It produces a very high-contrast dot pattern that stereo-matching algorithms can use to address low-texture situations and achieve high-accuracy depth maps. An additional benefit of the dot pattern is a reduction of the computational load required to perform the depth calculation. The BELAGO dot-pattern illuminator is provided in a miniature package that is compatible with standard lead-free reflow processes. As such, it can be successfully used onboard of a great variety of 3D sensing platforms, from mobile to IoT to robotics. BELAGO emitters produce approximately 5k dots at 940nm.

The TSL2521 features ambient light sensing, as well as flicker detection. The device comes in a low-profile and small footprint, L2.0mm x W1.0mm x H0.5mm optical QFN package. The Ambient Light Sensing function provides two concurrent ambient light sensing channels, which can be arbitrarily connected to the photodiodes via a programmable multiplexer. TSL2521 incorporates a set of Infrared photodiodes and a set of clear photodiodes. The clear photodiode area is covered with a UV/IR blocking filter. This architecture accurately measures ambient light and enables the calculation of irradiance of different light sources. Calculation results help to improve display appearance and picture taking. The device also integrates direct detection of ambient light flicker. Flicker detection is executed in parallel with ambient light sensing and has independent gain configuration. The flicker detection engine will sample and buffer data for calculating flicker frequencies externally on a host CPU.

The AS8579 is a capacitive sensor that detects the change of capacity in different applications. The capacitive sensor measures the impedance that originates between a conducting surface (metallic object) and a human being. The IC captures the current of a metal object and applies algorithms to determine the capacitive and resistive information. The outcome information can be read through a SPI Interface that can be also used for IC configuration. This high precision performance sensor also supports a multitude of diagnostic features that meet standard functional safety requirements. The capacitive sensing IC is specifically designed to function in an electro-magnetic environment (EMC) with high magnetic disturbances. This allows the sensor to distinguish in a hands-on application if the driver‘s hand is on the steering wheel or not. The AS8579 is available in an SSOP24 package and operates at a supply voltage of 5V.

Mira030 is a high speed global shutter image sensor for applications that require compact solutions. It outputs monochrome images with an effective pixel array of 1080H × 1280V, and supports complex on-chip operations such as high dynamic range (HDR) mode, external triggering, windowing, horizontal or vertical mirroring. Its maximum frame rate is 180fps at a full image resolution. On-chip registers can be accessed via the standard I²C interface.

The AS6200 is a complete digital sensor system. It offers a unique combination of ultra-low power consumption, small form factor and high accuracy. The AS6200 provides a fully calibrated and linearized sensor system that can easily be accessed via an I²C interface. It provides a resolution of 12-bit over the full temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. The integrated alarm functionality enables micro controller wake-up calls on defined temperature thresholds. An internal voltage regulator enables stable accuracy independent of the supply voltage between 1.8 to 3.6V. For power sensitive applications, the device can enter a low-power wait state with 0.1μA current consumption.

The AS-MLV-P2 high-performance sensor component is highly sensitive to volatile organic compounds for superior monitoring of indoor air quality. Produced using a combination of thin-film, thick-film and other patent-pending proprietary technologies. The AS-MLV-P2 component is available in a package with ultimate design efficiency.The heater and inter-digital electrode structures are placed on an approximately one micrometer-thin LPCVD silicon nitride membrane to achieve the lowest possible power consumption.

CCS801 is an ultra-low power MOX multi-gas sensor for monitoring indoor air quality including Carbon Monoxide (CO) and a wide range of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) such as Ethanol. CCS801 can be used as an equivalent carbon dioxide (eCO₂) sensor to represent eCO₂ levels in real world environments, where the main source of VOCs is from humans.
