Evaluation Kit for TCS3400
General description
The TCS3400 Evaluation Kit comes with everything needed to evaluate the TCS3400 color sensor. The evaluation kit comprises of a main controller board with a PIC microcontroller, an industry standard USB 2.0 interface (with an USB cable), a TCS3400 daughter card, "plug-n-play" USB HID class drivers, software documentation, and GUI software allowing users to control the color sensor settings as the PIC takes the TCS3400 I2C digital outputs to calculate illuminance in lux and color temperature.

TCS3400 Color Sensor
TCS3400
The TCS3400 device family provides color and IR (red, green, blue, clear and IR) ambient light sensing. The improved accuracy lux and color temperature measurement from color sensing is typically used to adjust the backlight intensity and correct the display color gamut. Additionally it can be used for light source type detection as it reports the IR content of the light.
