TCS34725 Color Sensor, High Sensitivity, I2C

TCS34725 Color Sensor, High Sensitivity, I2C Interface

Overview

This is a color sensor module based on TCS34725, will output RGB data and light intensity through the I2C interface. Its advantages include high sensitivity, wide dynamic range, accurate measuring, etc.

Features

• Onboard TCS34725FN, embedded ADC, high sensitivity, wide dynamic range
• I2C communication, uses a few pins
• Integrates IR blocking filter, minimizes the IR spectral component of the incoming light
• Outputs RGB data without white balance
• Outputs light intensity, feels the light like human eyes
• Supports light intensity interrupt output, programmable upper and lower thresholds
• Supports fill-light by onboard LED, adjustable brightness by PWM
• Onboard voltage level translator, compatible with 3.3V/5V operating voltage
• Comes with development resources and manual (examples for Raspberry Pi/Arduino/STM32)
