A library to measure light intensity (lux) using TEMT6000 on AVR Atmega

TEMT6000 is a silicon NPN epitaxial planar phototransistor in a miniature transparent mold for surface mounting onto a printed circuit board.
The device is sensitive to the visible spectrum.

This library implements a way to read sensor data and transform to lux.
The conversion formula it is explained in code.
The lux (symbol: lx) is the SI unit of illuminance and luminous emittance, measuring luminous flux per unit area.
Like datasheet states this device can return values from 10 to 1000lux.
