Overview

Part: TCS34725FN Color Sensor Module — Waveshare (Controller: TCS34725)

Type: Color Sensor Module

Description: I2C bus-based color light-to-digital converter module with an IR filter, providing digital red, green, blue (RGB) and clear light sensing values. It offers high sensitivity and wide dynamic range.

Operating Conditions:

  • Supply voltage: 3.3V/5V
  • IO voltage: 3.3V/5V

Key Specs:

  • I2C device address: 0x29 (7-bit)
  • Module dimensions: 27 x 20 mm
  • Gain settings: e.g., 16X
  • Integrate time options: 2.4ms, 24ms, 50ms, 101ms, 154ms, 700ms
  • Max channel value (at 60 gain): 1024 (2.4ms), 10240 (24ms), 5400 (50ms), 21504 (101ms), 65535 (154ms, 700ms)

Features:

  • High sensitivity
  • Wide dynamic range
  • IR blocking filter
  • Digital RGB and clear light sensing
  • Interrupt output (open drain)

Package:

  • Module: 27 x 20 mm

Notes

  • I2C Address: 0x29 (7-bit); 0x52 when left-shifted for write operations
  • Interface: I2C bus-based color sensor with RGB and clear light sensing
  • INT Pin: Open drain output; active low when light threshold is exceeded
  • LED Pin: Can be used to control an external LED for illumination during color measurement
  • Voltage Tolerance: Module supports both 3.3V and 5V operation
  • No pin diagram image with numbered pins was provided in the source material; pin numbering is inferred from the logical interface order (VCC, GND, SDA, SCL, INT, LED) as listed in the INTERFACE table
