TCS3200 Color Recognition Sensor Module

TCS3200 Color Recognition Sensor Module

TCS3200 Color Recognition Sensor module is a small module designed with TCS3200 Color Sensor that can convert light intensity to frequency. In addition to the TCS3200 RGB sensor chip, the module also features 4 white LEDs. The TCS3200 can detect and measure a nearly limitless range of visible colors.

The TCS3200 has an array of photodetectors, each with either a red, green, or blue filter, or no filter (clear). The filters of each color are distributed evenly throughout the array to eliminate location bias among the colors. Internal to the device is an oscillator that produces a square-wave output whose frequency is proportional to the intensity of the chosen color.
