I²C Master Interface

External sensors with native support by the AS7221 can be added via the I²C master interface. For

example the ams current TSL25721 or legacy TSL45315 can be used to add daylighting operation to

the AS7221. Once the supported ambient light sensor is detected by the AS7221, and the daylighting

is activated by using the ATDL=1 command, daylighting operation begins. Native support is provided

for selected ams environmental sensors including temperature, humidity and air quality/VOC.

The I2C Master interface uses I2C serial protocol for communication with 7+1-bit chip addressing mode

and full-speed clock frequency. Read and Write transactions comply with the standard set by Philips

(now NXP).The I2C master interface can be used as a UART to I2C Bridge to connect to other I2C

external sensors that do not have native support in the smart lighting firmware. Supporting smart

lighting commands enable pass-through communications with non-natively supported devices.
