About this product
A TCS230 colour recognition module built around the TCS3200 colour light-to-frequency sensor, which uses red, green, blue and clear photodiodes. It outputs a 50% duty-cycle square wave whose frequency is proportional to the light intensity of the selected filter. Compatible with Arduino and Raspberry Pi for colour sorting and colour recognition projects.

Frequently asked questions
What is the price of TCS230 Color Recognition Sensor Module (TCS3200 Frequency Output) in Egypt?
TCS230 Color Recognition Sensor Module (TCS3200 Frequency Output) currently costs 470 EGP in Egypt.
Where can I buy TCS230 Color Recognition Sensor Module (TCS3200 Frequency Output) in Egypt?
TCS230 Color Recognition Sensor Module (TCS3200 Frequency Output) is available from Ekostra. Compare the offers above to find the best price.
How do I read colour values from the module?
Set S0 and S1 to choose the output frequency scaling, and S2 and S3 to select the photodiode filter (red, green, blue or clear). Measure the frequency on OUT with the microcontroller, for example with pulseIn(), and repeat for each filter.
Why do readings change under different lighting?
The output depends on the light intensity reaching the sensor. Use a consistent light source and distance, and calibrate using white and black reference surfaces.
