MAX25205EVKIT#

MAX25205EVKIT# is a MAX25205 evaluation kit (EV kit). It is a complete system for demonstrating the MAX25205 optical IR sensor in a typical gesture and proximity-sensing application. The MAX25205 enables recognition of the following gestures: hand swipe left, right, up, and down and finger/hand rotation clockwise and counterclockwise, 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 MAX25205’s 6x10 (60 pixel) IR sensor array. The four-LED IR light source is PWM controlled with external FETs from the MAX25205’s onboard FET driver. The return signal is analysed with an embedded microcontroller that interprets the gestures.
