Color Recognition Sensor Module TCS3200D/TCS2300

The TCS3200 Color Recognition Sensor 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 color sensor and allow you to use the module in any ambient light.

The sensor 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.
