Color Sensor
The color sensor product family provides red, green, blue and clear (RGBC) light sensing for precise color measurement, determination, and discrimination. A SYNC input allows for greater accuracy by enabling the color sensing to be synchronized with an external event. For example, in LED solid state lighting, the SYNC input enables the color reading to be synchronized with the PWM signal and illumination of the LEDs. Color sensors are available with a built-in IR blocking filter for accurate color measurement by minimizing the effects due to unwanted IR light sources in sunlight and other light sources.
