MAX25405EVKIT#

MAX25405EVKIT# is a MAX25405 evaluation kit (EV kit) that is a complete system for demonstrating the MAX25405 optical IR sensor in a typical gesture and proximity-sensing application. The MAX25405 enables recognition of the following gestures like hand swipe left, right, up, and down. Finger/hand rotation clockwise and counter-clockwise, air click and proximity detection and linger-to-click. The application circuit operates by illuminating the user’s hand with a precision-controlled IR light source and measuring the reflected signal with the MAX25405’s 6x10 (60 pixel) IR sensor array. The four-LED IR light source is PWM controlled with external FETs from the MAX25405’s onboard FET driver. The return signal is analysed with an embedded microcontroller that interprets the gestures.

• Simple yet flexible gesture solution

• Integrated optics with ±20deg field of view (FOV)
• Optimum resolution for dynamic hand gestures
• Built-in led driver with ultra-low-power operation
• 120klux ambient light performance
• Compact 20-pin, 4mm x 4mm QFN package, side wettable
• AEC-Q100 qualified
• Operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C
