The TCS3200 and TCS3210 programmable color light-to-frequency converters that combine configurable silicon photodiodes and a current-to-frequency converter on a single monolithic CMOS integrated circuit. The output is a square wave (50 duty cycle) with frequency directly propor tional to light intensity (irradiance).

● High-Resolution Conversion of Light Intensity to Frequency

● Programmable Color and Full-Scale Output Frequency

● Communicates Directly With a Microcontroller

● Single-Supply Operation (2.7 V to 5.5 V)

● Power Down Feature

● Nonlinearity Error Typically 0.2 at 50 kHz

● Stable 200 ppm/°C Temperature Coefficient

● Low-Profile Lead (Pb) Free and RoHS Compliant Surface-Mount Package
