Description: The SparkFun AS7263 Near Infrared (NIR) Spectral Sensor Breakout brings spectroscopy to the palm of your hand, making it easier than ever to measure and characterize how different materials absorb and reflect different wavelengths of light. The AS7263 Breakout is unique in its ability to communicate by both an I2C interface and serial interface using AT commands. Hookup is easy, thanks to the Qwiic connectors attached to the board --- simply plug one end of the Qwiic cable into the breakout and the other into one of the Qwiic shields, then stack the board on a development board. You’ll be ready to upload a sketch to start taking spectroscopy measurements in no time. The AS7263 spectrometer detects wavelengths in the visible range at 610, 680, 730, 760, 810 and 860nm of light, each with 20nm of full-width half-max detection. The board also has multiple ways for you to illuminate objects that you will try to measure for a more accurate spectroscopy reading. There is an onboard LED that has been picked out specifically for this task, as well as two pins to solder your own LED into. Note: The I2C address of the AS7263 is 0x49 and is hardware defined. A multiplexer/Mux is required to communicate to multiple AS7263 sensors on a single bus. Features: 6 near-IR channels: 610nm, 680nm, 730nm, 760nm, 810nm and 860nm, each with 20nm FWHM NIR filter set realized by silicon interference filters 16-bit ADC with digital access Programmable LED drivers 2.7V to 3.6V with I2C interface 2x Qwiic connectors Documents: Schematic Eagle Files Qwiic Landing Page Hookup Guide Datasheet (AS7263) GitHub
