Proximity 9 Click is a very accurate and reliable proximity sensing (PS) and ambient light sensing (ALS) device, equipped with the VCNL4040, an integrated PS and ALS sensor which features the Filtron™ technology.
We provide a library for the Proximity9 Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.
Package can be downloaded/installed directly form compilers IDE(recommended way), or downloaded from our LibStock, or found on mikroE github account.
This library contains API for Proximity9 Click driver.
void proximity9_cfg_setup ( proximity9_cfg_t *cfg );
PROXIMITY9_RETVAL proximity9_init ( proximity9_t *ctx, proximity9_cfg_t *cfg );
void proximity9_default_cfg ( proximity9_t *ctx );
uint8_t proximity9_check_int_pin ( proximity9_t *ctx );
uint8_t proximity9_check_int_flag ( proximity9_t *ctx, uint8_t bit_mask );
float proximity9_get_als_lux ( proximity9_t *ctx );
This application is proximity sensing (PS) and ambient light sensing (ALS) device.
The demo application is composed of two sections :
Initializes I2C interface and performs a device configurations.
Performs a data reading and interrupt flag checking. Allows data and interrupt flags messages to be showed on the uart terminal.
The ALS sensitivity depends on the ALS integration time setting. The longer integration time has higher sensitivity. The Proximity (PS) output data can be set to 12-bit or 16-bit resolution.
The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly form compilers IDE(recommneded) or found on LibStock page or mikroE GitHub accaunt.

Additional notes and informations
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART Click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all Mikroelektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.
