Mikroelektronika MIKROE-3062 TCS3472 Color Light Sensor with IR Filter I2C

Technical description of the product (MIKROE-3062):

The Mikroelektronika MIKROE-3062 Color 7 click board is a very accurate color sensing Click board™ which features the TCS3472 color light to digital converter with IR filter, from ams. It contains a 3x4 matrix of photosensitive elements, which can sense red, green, blue and clear light components. Additional IR resistive coating reduces the influence of the IR component of the light spectrum. Four low noise 16-bit ADCs ensure a high dynamic range, making this sensor suitable to be used behind dark glass. This sensor offers a fast I2C interface for the communication with the host MCU. Ability to measure light without the influence of the IR makes this device a good choice for Ambient Light Sensing (ALS).
