Color 16 Click Board
Key Features
- Accurate Colour Sensing Detector
- 14 optical channels distributed over visible spectrum, near-infrared, and clear channel, dedicated functions such as flicker detection, high senistivity, fast measurements, low power consumption, interrupt, and more
- Based on the AS7343 - multi-purpose spectral sensor from ams AG
- Can be used for reflective, transmissive, and emissive light applications
- mikroBUS: I2C Interface
The Color 16 Click Board™ is a compact add-on board providing an accurate colour-sensing solution. This board features ams AG’s AS7343, a 14-channel multi-purpose spectral sensor offering spectral response through a compatible I2C interface. It has a built-in aperture that controls the light entering the sensor array to increase accuracy, alongside precise optical filters integrated into standard CMOS silicon via deposited interference filter technology. The spectral response is defined by individual channels covering approximately 380nm to 1000nm with 11 channels centred in the visible spectrum, one near-infrared, and a clear channel. This Click board™ is suitable for reflective, transmissive, and emissive light applications.
The Color 16 Click Board™ is supported by a mikroSDK-compliant library, which includes functions that simplify software development. This Click board™ comes as a thoroughly tested product, ready to be used on a system equipped with the mikroBUS™ socket.
