APPLICATION INFORMATION
Pin Connection with the Host
The configuration and data registers of the VEML6075 are accessed via the I2C interface. The hardware schematic is shown
below in fig. 6.
The 0.1 μF capacitor near the VDD pin is used for power supply noise rejection. The 2.2 kΩ is suitable for the pull high resistor
of I2C.

Data Auto-Memorization
VEML6075 keeps the last results read. These values will remain in the registers, and can be read from these registers, until the
device wakes up and a new measurement is made.
UV-Index Calculation
In order to use the result data to calculate the UV-Index, please refer to the “Designing the VEML6075 into an Application”
