TCS3200 Color Sensor Module With Cap uses a high-quality light sensor allowing you to sense any color through a combination of Red, Green, and Blue. The module provides all of the pins of the TCS3200 on convenient 0.1″ headers – ideal for use with PCBs, breadboard or stripboard.
Four white LEDs provide plenty of light for TCS3200 color sensor and allow you to use the module in any ambient light.
The TCS3200 color sensor module requires only a single supply voltage between 2.7V and 5.5V – making it compatible with nearly all common microcontrollers, including PICs, AVRs, ARM, Arduino and more!
The pinout is clearly labeled on the board and is as follows:
Header one on the left side of the board:
Header two on the right side of the board:
The Photodiode type pins allow you to pick which color light you are currently detecting:
High
| S2 | S3 | Photodiode type |
|---|---|---|
| Low | Low | Only red light |
| Low | High | Only blue light |
| High | Low | No filter |
| High | green light |
By combining the reading of each of the three colours, you can identify any visible colour!
