AS7263
6-Channel NIR Spectral_ID Device with
Electronic Shutter and Smart Interface
The AS7263 is a digital 6-channel spectrometer for spectral
identification in the near IR (NIR) light wavelengths. AS7263
consists of 6 independent optical filters whose spectral re-
sponse is defined in the NIR wavelengths from approximately
600nm to 870nm with full-width half-max (FWHM) of 20nm. An
integrated LED driver with programmable current is provided
for electronic shutter applications.
The AS7263 integrates Gaussian filters into standard CMOS sil-
icon via Nano-optic deposited interference filter technology
and is packaged an LGA package that provides a built in aper-
ture to control the light entering the sensor array.
Control and Spectral data access is implemented through either
the I²C register set, or with a high level AT Spectral Command
set via a serial UART.

6-Channel NIR Spectral_ID Detector
The AS7263 6-channel Spectral_ID is a next-generation digital
spectral sensor device. Each channel has a Gaussian filter
characteristic with a full width half maximum (FWHM)
bandwidth of 20nm. The channels are spaced roughly at 50nm
intervals in the NIR spectrum: R, S, T, U, V, W. The sensor contains
analog-to-digital converters (16-bit resolution ADC), which
integrate the current from each channel’s photodiode. Upon
completion of the conversion cycle, the integrated result is
transferred to the corresponding data registers. The transfers
are double-buffered to ensure that the integrity of the data is
maintained.
Interference filters enable high temperature stability and
eliminate lifetime drift. Filter accuracy will be affected by the
angle of incidence, and require angle of incidence ±20.0° for
specified accuracy. Angles of light beyond this will shift the
spectral response of the filters. The LGA package aperture
assists in the control of the light input, helping to maintain the
proper angle of incidence at the sensors.

AS7263 − Detailed Description
Data Conversion Description
AS7263 spectral conversion is implemented via two photodi-
ode banks per device. Bank 1 consists of data from the S, T, U,
V photodiodes. Bank 2 consists of data from the R, T, U, W pho-
todiodes. Spectral conversion requires the integration time (IT
in ms) set to complete. If both photodiode banks are required
to complete the conversion, the 2nd bank requires an addition-
al IT ms. Minimum IT for a single bank conversion is 2.8 ms. If
data is required from all 6 photodiodes then the device must
perform 2 full conversions (2 x Integration Time).
The spectral conversion process is controlled with BANK Mode
settings as follows:
BANK Mode 0: Data will be available in registers S, T, U & V (R
and W registers will be zero)
BANK Mode 1: Data will be available in registers R, T, U & W (V
and W registers will be zero)
BANK Mode 2: Data will be available in registers R, S, T, U, V & W
When the bank setting is Mode 0, Mode 1, or Mode 2, the spec-
tral data conversion process operates continuously, with new
data available after each IT ms period. In the continuous modes,
care should be taken to assure prompt interrupt servicing so
that integration values from both banks are all derived from the
same spectral conversion cycle.
BANK Mode 3: Data will be available in registers R, S, T, U, V & W
in One-Shot mode
When the bank setting is Mode 3, the device operates in
One-Shot mode. Spectral conversion occurs only when bit 0 of
the control register (1SHOT) is set to 1. The 1SHOT bit in the
control register is subsequently cleared by hardware at the
same time the DATA_RDY bit is set to 1 indicating the availability
of spectral conversion result data. The One-Shot mode is in-
tended for use when it is critical to ensure that spectral conver-
sion results are obtained contemporaneously.

Indicator LED
The LED, connected to pin LED_IND, can be used to indicate
programming progress of the device.
While programming the AS7263 via the external SD card the
indicator LED starts flashing (500ms pulses). When program-
ming is completed the indicator LED is switched off. The LED
(LED0) can be turned ON/OFF via AT commands or via I²C reg-
ister control. The LED sink current is programmable from 1mA,
2mA, 4mA and 8mA.
Electronic Shutter with LED_DRV Driver Control
There are two LED driver outputs that can be used to control
up to 2 LEDs. This will allow different wavelength light sources
to be used in the same system. The LED output sink currents are
programmable and can drive external LED sources: LED_IND
from 1mA, 2mA, 4mA and 8mA and LED_DRV from 12.5mA,
25mA, 50mA and 100mA. The sources can be turned off and on
via I²C registers control or AT commands and provides the de-
vice with an electronic shutter.

AS7263 − Detailed Description
Interrupt Operation
If BANK is set to Mode 0 or Mode 1 then the data is ready after
the 1st integration time. If BANK is set to Mode 2 or Mode 3 then
the data is ready after two integration times. If the interrupt is
enabled (INT = 1) then when the data is ready, the INT line is
pulled low and DATA_RDY is set to 1. The INT line is released
(returns high) when the control register is read. DATA_RDY is
cleared to 0 when any of the sensor registers R, S, T, U, V, W are
read. Since each sensor value is 2 bytes, after the 1st byte is read
the 2nd byte is shadow-protected in case an integration cycle
completes just after the 1st byte is read.
In continuous spectral conversion mode (BANK setting of Mode
0, Mode 1, or Mode 2), the sensors continue to gather informa-
tion at the rate of the integration time, hence if the sensor reg-
isters are not read when the interrupt line goes low, it will stay
low and the next cycle’s sensor data will be available in the
registers at the end of the next integration cycle. When the con-
trol register BANK bits are written with a value of Mode 3,
One-Shot Spectral Conversion mode is entered. When a single
set of contemporaneous sensor readings is desired, writing
BANK Mode 3 to the control register immediately triggers ex-
actly two spectral data conversion cycles. At the end of these
two conversion cycles, the DATA_RDY bit is set as for the other
BANK modes. To perform a new One-Shot sequence, the control
register BANK bits should be written with a value of Mode 3
again. This process may continue until the user writes a different
value into the BANK bits.
I²C Slave Interface
If selected by the I2C_ENB pin setting, interface and control can
be accomplished through an I²C compatible slave interface to
a set of registers that provide access to device control functions
and output data. These registers on the AS7263 are, in reality,
implemented as virtual registers in software. The actual I²C slave
hardware registers number only three and are described in the
table below. The steps necessary to access the virtual registers
defined in the following are explained in pseudocode for exter-
nal I²C master writes and reads below.

I²C Virtual Register Write Access
Figure 19 shows the pseudocode necessary to write virtual
registers on the AS7263. Note that, because the actual registers
of interest are realized as virtual registers, a means of indicating
whether there is a pending read or write operation of a given
virtual register is needed. To convey this information, the most
significant bit of the virtual register address is used as a marker.
If it is 1, then a write is pending, otherwise the slave is expecting
a virtual read operation. The pseudocode illustrates the proper
technique for polling of the I²C slave status register to ensure
the slave is ready for each transaction.

AS7263 − Detailed Description
UART Interface
If selected by the I2C_ENB pin setting, the UART module imple-
ments the TX and RX signals as defined in the RS-232 / V.24
standard communication protocol.
It has on both, receive and transmit path, a 16 entry deep FIFO.
It can generate interrupts as required.
UART Feature List1
Full Duplex Operation (Independent Serial Receive and
Transmit Registers) with FIFO buffer of 8 byte for each.
At a clock rate of 16MHz it supports communication at
115200Baud.
Supports Serial Frames with 8 Data Bits, 1 Parity Bit and 1
Stop Bit.
High Resolution Baud Rate Generator.
Theory of Operation
Transmission
If data is available in the transmit FIFO, it will be moved into the
output shift register and the data will be transmitted at the
configured Baud Rate, starting with a Start Bit (logic zero) and
followed by a Stop Bit (logic one).
Reception
At any time, with the receiver being idle, if a falling edge of a
start bit is detected on the input, a byte will be received and
stored in the receive FIFO. The following Stop Bit will be checked
to be logic one.
1. With UART operation, min VDD of 2.97V is required as shown in Electrical Characteristics Figures.

AT Command Interface
The microprocessor interface to control the NIR Spectral_ID
Sensor is via the UART, using the AT Commands across the UART
interface.
The 6-channel Spectral _ID sensor provides a text-based serial
command interface borrowed from the “AT Command” model
used in early Hayes modems.
For example:
Read DATA value: ATDATA <data>OK
Set the gain of the sensor to 1x: ATGAIN =0 OK
The “AT Command Interface Block Diagram, shown below be-
tween the network interface and the core of the system, pro-
vides access to the Spectral_ID engines control and configura-
tion functions.

AS7263 − Detailed Description
In the Figure below, numeric values may be specified with no
leading prefix, in which case they will be interpreted as
decimals, or with a leading “0x” to indicate that they are
hexadecimal numbers, or with a leading “‘b” to indicate that
they are binary numbers. The commands are loosely grouped
into functional areas. Texts appearing between angle brackets
(‘<‘ and ‘>‘) are commands or response arguments. A carriage
return character, a linefeed character, or both may terminate
commands and responses. Note that any command that
encounters an error will generate the “ERROR” response shown,
for example, in the NOP command at the top of the first table,
but has been omitted elsewhere in the interest of readability
and clarity.

AS7263 − Storage & Soldering Information
Manufacturing Process Considerations
The AS7263 package is compatible with standard reflow
no-clean and cleaning processes including aqueous, solvent or
ultrasonic techniques. However, as an open-aperture device,
precautions must be taken to avoid particulate or solvent
contamination as a result of any manufacturing processes,
including pick and place, reflow, cleaning, integration assembly
and/or testing. Temporary covering of the aperture is allowed.
To avoid degradation of accuracy or performance in the end
product, care should be taken that any temporary covering and
associated sealants/debris are thoroughly removed prior to any
optical testing or final packaging.
Storage Information
Moisture Sensitivity
Optical characteristics of the device can be adversely affected
during the soldering process by the release and vaporization of
moisture that has been previously absorbed into the package.
To ensure the package contains the smallest amount of
absorbed moisture possible, each device is baked prior to being
dry packed for shipping.
Devices are dry packed in a sealed aluminized envelope called
a moisture-barrier bag with silica gel to protect them from
ambient moisture during shipping, handling, and storage
before use.
Shelf Life
The calculated shelf life of the device in an unopened moisture
barrier bag is 12 months from the date code on the bag when
stored under the following conditions:
Shelf Life: 12 months
Ambient Temperature: <40°C
Relative Humidity: <90%
Rebaking of the devices will be required if the devices exceed
the 12 month shelf life or the Humidity Indicator Card shows
that the devices were exposed to conditions beyond the
allowable moisture region.
Page 38 ams Datasheet
Document Feedback [v1-00] 2016-Nov-25
AS7263 − Storage & Soldering Information
Floor Life
The module has been assigned a moisture sensitivity level of
MSL 3. As a result, the floor life of devices removed from the
moisture barrier bag is 168 hours from the time the bag was
opened, provided that the devices are stored under the
following conditions:
Floor Life: 168 hours
Ambient Temperature: <30°C
Relative Humidity: <60%
If the floor life or the temperature/humidity conditions have
been exceeded, the devices must be rebaked prior to solder
reflow or dry packing.
Rebaking Instructions
When the shelf life or floor life limits have been exceeded,
rebake at 50°C for 12 hours.
