TSL2585(3) is a light sensor that can also handle IR and UVA
The TSL2585 is a light sensor that can also handle IR and UVA. We're pretty close to wrapping up all the prototypes for ams-OSRAM light sensors of interest... this one is a light sensor that also has UVA reading, so it's handy for outdoor sensing where you may want to know how much UV light is being emitted for skin health.

Only thing that is kinda annoying is ams-OSRAM keeps having "two" part numbers for their sensors, like the datasheet references TSL2585 but when you buy it you get TSL25853. Other than that, we're looking forward to getting this out the door before summer!

@adafruit I wonder if I could use it to estimate cyanotype exposure times. I shall have to investigate.
