Sensor-Color Detector

Language:	English  • 中文

Microduino-ColorDetector Microduino-Color detector is a color detection senor. This module adopts TCS3414CS color chip and it can be connected through IIC interface. Based on 8×2 filtered photodiode and 16-bit analog-digital converter, you can measure light or light reflection on the surface of an object to acquire color value. Features High accuracy and sensitivity; Low-consumption, long product life and high-stability; Small and easy to install. Specification Electrical specification Operation voltage: 3.3 ~6.0 V Input device Tech parameters ROHS authentication: YES Operation temperature: -40 ~ 85 °C Size Size of the sensor: 5mm*5mm Size of the board: 20mm*20mm 1.27mm-ptich 4Pin interface Connection method Interface: IIC Pin description: GND, VCC, signal 1 and signal 2. Since the output signal is IIC, you need IIC interface to receive signals, which can connect Sensorhub's IIC pin.

Adopt Microduino-CoreUSB or mCookie-CoreUSB as the core. 2. Adopt Microduino-Core or Microduino-Core+ as the core plus Microduino-USBTTL as the program download module. Program [MicroduinoColorSensor] Define variable values; RGB reading range. #define redMax 32767 #define greenMax 32767 #define blueMax 32767 int redValue,greenValue,blueValue; readRGB(); Read RGB color function Reflect RGB value (0~32767) to (0.225); redValue=map(red, 0, redMax, 0, 255); greenValue=map(green, 0, greenMax, 0, 255); blueValue=map(blue, 0, blueMax, 0, 255); Hardware Buildup Connect the sensor to the IIC interface of the Sensorhub with a wire. Microduino-Sensorhub mCookie-Hub Connect the core, Sensorhub and the Color Detector to a computer with a USB cable. Select the right board and COM port, compile and download. You can refer to AVR Core：Getting started Download the program above. Select the right port from Tools→Serial Port in Arduino IDE and then download program. Open the serial monitor after download. The console will print current RGB value circularly. Application Microduino-Color detector is suitable for environment color detection.
