Abstract: An optoelectronic device includes an emitter of light rays and a receiver of light rays. The emitter is encapsulated in a transparent block. An opaque conductive layer is applied to a top surface and a side surface of the transparent block. The receiver is mounted to the opaque conductive layer at the top surface. An electrical connection is made between the receiver and the opaque conductive layer. A conductive strip is also mounted to the side surface of the transparent block and isolated from the opaque conductive layer. A further electrical connection is made between the receiver and the conductive strip.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a selection signal from a third-party device and a status signal from the third-party device. A data signal from the third-party device is latched when both the selection signal and the status signal are active. In addition, a second selection signal and a second status signal can be received from a second third-party device and a second data signal latched when both the second selection signal and the second status signal are active.

Abstract: An optoelectronic device includes a backlight panel illuminating a display panel. The backlight panel includes an array of light emitting pixels, with each light emitting pixel including at least one subpixel formed by one or more light emitting diodes positioned on a substrate. At least one photodetector is positioned on the substrate and arranged to detect an amount of reflected light emitted by said subpixel and reflected by the display panel.

Abstract: A method for operating an electronic device includes while a display is in low power mode, detecting based on data collected by a time of flight (ToF) sensor, a movable object within a field of view of the electronic device; in response to the detecting initiating a period of detection having a plurality of frames, the period of detection being a time period over which a distance value indicative of a distance between the movable object and the display is detected; for each of the plurality of frames, changing the distance value to reflect whether the movable object is moving near or further from the electronic device; detecting that the distance value after the period of detection is less than a threshold distance value indicative of the movable object approaching the display; if the distance value is less than the threshold distance value, waking up the display.

Abstract: In an embodiment a method for measuring ambient light includes successively synchronizing optical signal acquisition phases with extinction phases of a disruptive light source, wherein the disruptive light source periodically provides illumination phases and the extinction phases, accumulating, in each acquisition phase, photo-generated charges by at least one photosensitive pixel comprising a pinned photodiode, transferring the accumulated photo-generated charges to an integration node and integrating, for each pixel, the transferred charges on the integration node during a series of the successive acquisition phases.

Metallic strips of the first plurality of metallic strips that are adjacent and side by side are separated by a distance smaller than a width of those metallic strips. The second portion is formed by a second plurality of metallic strips. Metallic strips of the second plurality of metallic strips that are adjacent and side by side are separated by a distance smaller than a width of those metallic strips.
