TCS3430-EVM Ams

TCS3430 Color and ALS Sensor The device features advanced digital Ambient Light Sensing General Description (ALS) and CIE 1931 Tristimulus Color Sensing (XYZ). Each of the channels has a filter to control its optical response, which allows the device to accurately measure ambient light and sense color. These measurements are used to calculate chromaticity, illuminance and color temperature, all of which are used to support various potential applications. Ordering Information and Content Guide appear at end of datasheet.
