8.4.5.2 Lux and Color Calculations

The red (R), green (G), and blue (B) color content detected by the sensor can be calculated from the ADC_CODES of Channels 0, 1, and 2 using Equation 5, Equation 6, and Equation 7. The R,G,B values are defined such that white (R=G=B) is read when a D65 standard white light source is shined on the sensor.

Equation 5. R = ADC_CODES_CH0 x 2.4
Equation 6. G = ADC_CODES_CH1 x 1.0
Equation 7. B = ADC_CODES_CH2 x 1.3

It is typically convenient to normalize the R,G,B values to indicate color independent of light intensity. This can be done using the below equations and is represented here as R',G',B'. This allows colors to be compared independent of light intensity. Application Curve gives more details on working with normalized R',G',B' values.

Equation 8. R' = R/(R+G+B)
Equation 9. G' = G/(R+G+B)
Equation 10. B' = B/(R+G+B)

In addition to color information, the light intensity in extracted from the sensor as shown in Equation 11 and represented in units of lux.

Equation 11. lux = ADC_CODES_CH1 x 2.15e-3
