The ``tsl2561`` sensor platform allows you to use your TSL2561
|
|
(`datasheet <https://cdn-shop.adafruit.com/datasheets/TSL2561.pdf>`__,
|
|
`Adafruit`_)
|
|
ambient light sensor with ESPHome. The :ref:`I²C <i2c>` is required to be set up in
|
|
your configuration for this sensor to work.

# Example configuration entry
|
|
sensor:
|
|
- platform: tsl2561
|
|
name: "TSL2561 Ambient Light"
|
|
address: 0x39
|
|
update_interval: 60s
|
|
|
|
Configuration variables:
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
- **name** (**Required**, string): The name for the sensor.
|
|
- **address** (*Optional*, int): Manually specify the I^2C address of the sensor. Defaults to ``0x39``.
|
|
- **integration_time** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`):
|
|
The time the sensor will take for each measurement. Longer means more accurate values. One of
|
|
``14ms``, ``101ms``, ``402ms``. Defaults to ``402ms``.
|
|
- **gain** (*Optional*, string): The gain of the sensor. Higher values are better in low-light conditions.
|
|
One of ``1x`` and ``16x``. Defaults to ``1x``.
|
|
- **is_cs_package** (*Optional*, boolean): The "CS" package of this sensor has a slightly different
|
|
formula for calculating the illuminance in lx. Set this to ``true`` if you're working with a CS
|
|
package. Defaults to ``false``.
|
|
- **update_interval** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-time`): The interval to check the
|
|
sensor. Defaults to ``60s``.
|
|
- **id** (*Optional*, :ref:`config-id`): Manually specify the ID used for code generation.
|
|
- All other options from :ref:`Sensor <config-sensor>`.
