TCS3200 TCS230 Color Sensor Module

Description

Introduction:
TCS3200 TCS230 Color Sensor Recognition Module is a complete color detector capable of detecting static color. The output of the sensor is a square wave with frequency directly proportional to incident light intensity. It also supports fill light by on board LEDs. It includes a TAOS TCS3200 RGB sensor chip and 4 white LEDs. The TCS3200 can detect and measure a nearly limitless range of visible colors. Applications include test strip reading, sorting by color, ambient light sensing and calibration, and color matching, to name just a few.

Specification:
Operating Voltage(VDC) – 3 to 5
Best Detection Range(mm) – 100
Use bright white LED lights
Can be connected directly with Microcontroller
Static detection of the measured object color
