TCS230 TCS3200 Color Recognition Module Color Sensor Module

Color sensor principle: The TCS230 is 8-lead SOIC surface mount package with 64 photodiodes integrated on a single chip. These diodes are divided into four types. Among them, 16 photodiodes have a red filter; 16 photodiodes have a green filter; 16 photodiodes have a blue filter; the remaining 16 do not have any filters and can pass all the light information.
These photodiodes are interdigitated in the chip, which minimizes the inhomogeneity of the incident light radiation, thereby increasing the accuracy of color recognition; on the other hand, the 16 photodiodes of the same color are connected in parallel and evenly distributed. In the diode array, color position errors can be eliminated.
In operation, the desired filter is dynamically selected through two programmable pins. The sensor's typical output frequency range is from 2 Hz to 500 kHz, and the user can also select 100%, 20%, or 2% of the output scaling factor or power shutdown mode via two programmable pins. The output scaling factor allows the sensor's output to adapt to different measurement ranges, improving its adaptability.
For example, when using a low-speed frequency counter, you can select a small scaling value to match the output frequency of the TCS230 to the counter.
