8.3.3.1 Output Sample Counter

The OPT4001 device features a register COUNTER as part of the output registers which increments for every successful measurement. This register can be read as part of the output registers which helps the application to keep track of measurements. The 4 bit counter starts at 0 on power-up and counts up to 15 after which the counter resets back to 0 and continues to count up, which is particularly helpful in situations like the following:

  • Host or the controller needs consecutive measurements. Utilizing the COUNTER register allows the controller to compare samples and makes sure that the samples are in expected order without missing intermediate counter values.
  • As a safety feature where when light level are not changing, the controller can make sure that the measurements from OPT4001 are not stuck by comparing values of register COUNTER between measurements. If the COUNTER values continue to change over samples, the device is updating the output register with the most recent measurement of light levels.
