DESCRIPTION The TCS34725 colour sensor can detect RGB and Clear light, whereas the normal colour sensors only RGB. An IR blocking filter, integrated on-chip and localized to the co lor sensing photodiodes, minimizes the IR spectral component of the incoming light and allows color measurements to be made accurately. The filter means you'll get much truer color than most sensors, since humans don't see IR. The sensor also has an incredible 3,800,000:1 dynamic range with adjustable integration time and gain so it is suited for use behind darkened glass. The board has built-in level shifting for the I2C pins so they can be used with 3.3V or 5V logic. LED light on board is a nice neutral 4150°K temperature LED with a MOSFET driver onboard to illuminate what you're trying to sense. The LED can be easily turned on or off by any logic level output.
