Buy TCS3200 Colour Sensor Recognition

The TCS3200 Colour Sensor Recognition Module 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 the colour sensor and allow you to use the module in any ambient light. The TCS3200 Color Sensor is a versatile device designed for precise color recognition in various applications. Equipped with an array of photodiodes and an RGB filter, it can accurately detect and measure the intensity of red, green, blue, and clear light components. Its programmable color sensitivity allows for customization according to specific requirements, making it suitable for tasks such as color sorting, calibration, and identification in industrial, automotive, and consumer electronics applications. With its compact size, low power consumption, and simple interfacing capabilities, the TCS3200 offers an efficient solution for integrating color sensing functionality into a wide range of projects and products. Whether used for detecting colors in printing, textiles, or ambient lighting, this sensor provides reliable and consistent performance, contributing to enhanced automation and quality control processes. here are some common uses of the TCS3200 Color Sensor presented in bullet points: Color Sorting: The sensor can be used in industrial applications for sorting objects based on their color, such as in manufacturing processes or recycling facilities. Color Calibration: It’s utilized in calibration equipment to ensure accurate color reproduction in devices like printers, monitors, and cameras. Color Identification: The sensor can identify and distinguish between different colors, useful in applications like product identification, quality control, and automation. Ambient Light Sensing: Besides color detection, it can also measure ambient light levels, making it suitable for adjusting screen brightness in smartphones and laptops based on environmental conditions. Interactive Installations: Artists and designers often incorporate the sensor into interactive installations, allowing for dynamic color-based interactions with the audience. Color Measurement in Agriculture: It can be used in agricultural applications for analyzing the color of plants or fruits, which can indicate ripeness, health, or readiness for harvesting. Color Detection in Robotics: In robotics, the sensor enables robots to perceive and interact with colored objects or markers, aiding in navigation or object manipulation tasks. The 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 S0: Output frequency scaling selection input (along with S1) S1: Output frequency scaling selection input (along with S0) OE: Output Enable – if held low, the output of the module is turned on GND: Ground – connect to 0V Header two on the right side of the board S3: Photodiode type (along with S2) S2: Photodiode type (along with S3) OUT: Output – A square wave appears here showing the intensity of the detected colour VCC: Power – connect to 2.7V-5.5V The Photodiode type pins allow you to pick which color light you are currently detecting: 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 colors, you can identify any visible color!  Features : High-resolution conversion of light intensity to frequency.
