LTR390 UV and Ambient Light Sensor

:description: Instructions for setting up LTR390 UV and light sensor
:image: ltr390.jpg
The ``ltr390`` sensor platform allows you to use your LTR390 UV and ambient
light sensor
(`datasheet <https://optoelectronics.liteon.com/upload/download/DS86-2015-0004/LTR-390UV_Final_%20DS_V1%201.pdf>`__, `Adafruit`_) with ESPHome.
The :ref:`I²C Bus <i2c>` is required to be set up in your configuration for this sensor to work.

sensor:
- platform: ltr390
uv:
name: "UV Index"
light:
name: "Light"
Configuration variables:
------------------------
- **uv_index** (*Optional*): UV index (UVI). All options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
- **uv** (*Optional*): Sensor counts for the UV sensor (#). All options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
- **light** (*Optional*): Lux of ambient light (lx). All options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
- **ambient_light** (*Optional*): Sensor counts for the Ambient light sensor (#). All options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
- **gain** (*Optional*, string): Adjusts the sensitivity of the sensor. A larger value means higher sensitivity. See table below for details. Default is ``"X3"``.
- **resolution** (*Optional*, int): ADC resolution. Higher resolutions require longer sensor integration times. See table below for details. Default is ``18``.
- **window_correction_factor** (*Optional*, float): Window correction factor. Use larger values when using under tinted windows. Default is ``1.0``, must be ``>= 1.0``.
- **address** (*Optional*, int): Manually specify the I²C address of the sensor. Default is `0x53`.
- **update_interval** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): The interval to check the
sensor. Defaults to ``60s``. It is recommended that the update interval is at least 1 second since updates can take up to 800ms when using a high resolution value.
Lux and UVI Formulas
--------------------
.. math::
\text{lux} = \frac{0.6 \times \text{als}}{\text{gain} \times \text{int}} \times \text{wfac}
.. math::
\text{UVI} = \frac{\text{uv}}{\text{sensitivity}} \times \text{wfac}
where:
- ``als`` and ``uv`` are the sensor values
- ``gain`` is the amount of gain, see the table below for details
- ``int`` is the integration time in 100s of ms and is tied to the resolution, see the table below for details
- ``sensitivity`` has the value ``2300`` and is the sensor's count per UVI
- ``wfac`` is the window correction factor
