TCS230 TCS3200 Color Sensor Module (RGB + Clear)

The TCS230 TCS3200 is a color sensor that uses an 8×8 array of photodiodes to measure the amount of red, green, and blue light that is reflected off of an object. The TCS230 TCS3200 sensor then converts these measurements into a digital signal that can be read by a microcontroller.

TCS230 is a relatively simple color sensor, but it is capable of detecting a wide range of colors. Color sensor TCS3200 is also relatively inexpensive, making it a good option for hobbyists and makers who are looking to build color sensing projects.

The TCS3200 Color Sensor Module typically used in conjunction with a microcontroller to read the sensor’s output and identify the color of an object. The microcontroller can then use this information to control other devices or to perform other actions.

TCS3200 color sensor can operate with an input voltage of 2.7V to 5.5V. This makes it compatible with a wide range of microcontrollers and other devices. The sensor is typically power by the same voltage that is use to power the microcontroller.

This color sensor TCS230 has an array of 64 photodiodes, which are arranged in a 8×8 grid. Each photodiode is covered with a different color filter, which allows it to only measure the amount of light of a specific color. The microcontroller can then use this digital signal to identify the color of the object. The microcontroller can do this by comparing the digital signal to a set of known values for different colors.

The TCS3200 also has two pins, S0 and S1, which can use to adjust the output frequency of the sensor. This allows the sensor to be optimized for different applications. The TCS3200 is a simple and affordable color sensor that can be used in a variety of applications.
