S10170 is a color sensor molded into a plastic package having a 3-channel (RGB) photodiode sensitive to the Red (λ=590 nm Min.), Green (λ=480 to 600 nm) and Blue (λ=400 to 540 nm) regions of the spectrum. When compared to the previous model (S9702), S10170 is significantly miniaturized the package size by 80 % in cubic volume and PC board mount space by 77 % in area. S10170 is ideal for RGBLCD backlight monitors installed in such as mobile phones.
