Vishay Intertechnology Fully Integrated Proximity Sensor Receives 2024 China IoT Innovation Award and 2024 EE Awards Asia Award
December 06 2024 - 11:00AM
Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE: VSH) today announced that its
VCNL36828P fully integrated proximity sensor has recently been
honored by two industry awards programs. The device has received a
2024 China IoT Innovation Award in the “IoT Annual Product Award:
Sensor” category, and a 2024 EE Awards Asia Award in the “Best
Sensor of the Year (Most Promising Product)” category.
Now in its ninth year, the China IoT Innovation Awards —
presented by industry publication Elecfans — recognize products and
technologies introduced over the past year that have delivered a
far-reaching impact on the IoT industry. Presented by AspenCore,
the world’s largest media group within the technical electronics
sector, the EE Awards Asia program honors products, companies, and
individuals who have made outstanding contributions to innovations
and development in the Asian electronics industry. This year, both
programs recognized Vishay’s VCNL36828P for the increased
efficiency, space savings, and performance it brings to consumer
applications.
Featuring a vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL), the
VCNL36828P combines a photodiode, application-specific integrated
circuit (ASIC), 16-bit ADC, and smart dual I²C slave address in a
compact 2.0 mm by 1.0 mm by 0.5 mm surface-mount package. Compared
to previous-generation solutions, the device offers a 20 % smaller
package, 20 % lower idle current of 5 μA, and 40 % higher sunlight
cancellation up to 140 klx. Combined with a range of 200 mm and a
typical rated supply voltage of 1.8 V, the proximity sensor is
designed to deliver superior proximity detection while reducing
power consumption to increase efficiency in space-constrained,
battery-powered applications.
The VCNL36828P is used in smartphones and smart watches for
automatic screen wake-up and turn-off functions, in addition to
detecting if users are wearing or not wearing true wireless stereo
(TWS) earphones, virtual reality / augmented reality (VR / AR)
headsets, and smart glasses. To lower costs in these applications,
the proximity sensor’s smart dual I²C slave address allows for the
connection of two proximity sensors without the need for a
multiplexer.
2024 China IoT Innovation Award winners were announced at a
ceremony held on October 14 in conjunction with the 2024 China IoT
Conference in Shenzhen. A complete list of winners can be found
