The TCS3200 Color Recognition Sensor Module features a high-quality light sensor that enables color detection by analyzing Red, Green, and Blue components. Its user-friendly design provides easy access to all TCS3200 pins via 0.1″ headers, making integration with PCBs, breadboards, or stripboards straightforward.
Equipped with four white LEDs, this module ensures sufficient illumination for accurate color sensing, regardless of external lighting conditions. It operates within a voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V, making it compatible with a wide variety of microcontrollers, including PICs, AVRs, ARM, and Arduino. This versatility makes it suitable for numerous applications across different platforms.
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!
