TCS3200 RGB Color Sensor Module
Overview
The TCS3200 RGB Color Sensor is a sophisticated device designed for precise color detection. It utilizes a sensor chip that effectively identifies static colors, outputting a square wave whose frequency correlates directly with the intensity of incoming light. This module is equipped with onboard LEDs to facilitate fill-light support.
Key Features
- Sensor Technology: Utilizes TCS3200 chip for accurate RGB color detection.
- Output Mechanism: Generates a square wave output proportional to the detected light intensity.
- Onboard Illumination: Integrated LEDs enhance performance in low-light conditions.
Specifications
- Power Supply Range: Operates between 2.7V and 5.5V.
- Optimal Detection Distance: Best performance at approximately 10mm.
- Dimensions: Measures 36.0mm x 20.6mm.
- Mounting Hole Size: Compatible with mounting holes of size 2.0mm.
Applications
This versatile sensor can be employed in various applications, including:
- Color sorting systems for automated processes.
- Ambient light sensing and calibration tasks.
- Reading test strips in diagnostic equipment.
- Facilitating color matching in design and manufacturing settings.
Usage Instructions
For integration with an MCU (Microcontroller Unit):
- Connect VCC to power supply (2.7V – 5.5V).
- Ground connection should be established via GND pin.
- Control the onboard white LEDs through the LED pin connected to MCU.IO.
- The OUT pin provides RGB color output frequency data back to the MCU.IO interface.
- Use S0/S1 pins for selecting output frequency scaling factors; S2/S3 pins allow selection of photodiode types corresponding to red, green, or blue colors.
Important Notes:
- Minimize interference from ambient light during operation for optimal results.
- Perform white balance adjustments when initializing or resetting the module or when changing lighting conditions.
This compact yet powerful TCS3200 RGB Color Sensor Module is ideal for developers and engineers looking to incorporate advanced color detection capabilities into their projects, enhancing automation processes across various industries such as manufacturing, healthcare diagnostics, and environmental monitoring.
