Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 1/2] dt-bindings: iio: light: add Broadcom APDS9999
Date: Wed, 13 May 2026 10:10:03 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <438370a42f57250cbead53ac73834fbf9ccb9269.1778659152.git.azpijr@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1778659152.git.azpijr@gmail.com>
Add Device Tree binding for the Broadcom APDS9999 ambient light
and proximity sensor.
The APDS9999 features individual R, G, B, and IR channels with
a green channel that uses optical coating to approximate the
human eye spectral response for ALS/lux measurements. Proximity
and RGB functionality are not yet implemented in the driver.

+description: |
+ Broadcom APDS-9999 is a digital proximity and RGB sensor with
+ ambient light sensing (ALS) capability. The device uses individual
+ R, G, B, and IR channels plus a VCSEL for proximity detection.
