AS7150 Ultra-Low Power Analog Frontend

The ams OSRAM AS7150 high-performance, compact analog frontend (AFE) is specifically engineered to revolutionize how users interact with devices. By leveraging advanced optical force sensing technology, the AS7150 enables the creation of virtual buttons on almost any material, including metal, plastic, glass, and even through leather or wood. It achieves a remarkable displacement resolution of less than 1 µm, allowing it to detect subtle pressure changes with extreme precision.

To provide a complete sensing solution, the AS7150 is designed to work seamlessly with the ams OSRAM SFH 7061, a high-performance integrated optical module. While the AS7150 acts as the brain by processing signals and driving LEDs, the SFH 7061 serves as the specialized eyes, containing the necessary infrared emitters and photodiode in a single package. Together, this chipset allows for an ultra-thin implementation of behind-the-surface sensing, ensuring that devices remain completely sealed and waterproof. Whether it is a sleek smartwatch, a robust industrial control panel, or a hygienic medical device, the AS7150 and SFH 7061 duo provides a seamless user experience that supports proximity, touch, and varying levels of force detection.
