LTR559 Proximity/Presence/Light Sensor

Suitable for detecting proximity of an object at close range the LTR-559 is great for approach detection and ambient light compensation. The range is useful to around 5cm, and this is the type of sensor you might find in a smartphone to determine if you're holding it against your head.
