Description
I am using the RGB sensor in a project. There I have made the experience that the sensor shows really strange behaviour for larger value. So at small value the sensor shows the behaviour that is excpected but for large value, so for exemple then the roomlight is on, the sensor starts to jump around 2 different levels. I have ploted the values in the two plots below. What could be the problem ? I am using a gain of 4 and an integration time of 50ms. I have tried to change the integration time but it didn't help.
The experimental setup is:

Research direction
Start by reproducing the RGB sensor setup described in the issue with gain 4 and a 50 ms integration time, then compare readings under small and large light values using the supplied plots. No source file or test is named; done means identifying the cause of the two-level jumping behavior and documenting the finding or a reproducible fix.
