Get Free TCS3200D Sample in 24hThe Hidden Costs of Inaccurate Color Detection in Your Operations
As a purchasing manager or technical director in US manufacturing, you know color accuracy isn't optional—it's critical for quality control. Yet, common issues plague your supply chain.
- High Prices from US Suppliers: Premium TCS3200D color sensor prices often exceed $15/unit, inflating your BOM by 25% without proportional gains.
- Low-Quality Clones: Cheap imports fail after 1,000 cycles, causing 22% rework rates and downtime in automated lines.
- Skyrocketing Shipping Costs: Overseas delays add $2-5/unit in fees, with lead times stretching 6-8 weeks—critical when scaling production.
- Inconsistent Performance: Sensors drift under factory lights, leading to 15% false positives in color sorting for packaging or textiles.
- Lack of Customization: No OEM/ODM options mean forced integration hacks, hiking engineering time by 40%.
- Regulatory Headaches: Non-compliant units risk FCC violations, halting US shipments.
These pain points erode your ROI. Imagine fixing them with a reliable partner. Discover how below.

TCS3200D Color Sensor Technical Specifications
The TCS3200D is a light-to-frequency converter integrating photodiodes for red, green, blue, and clear channels. It converts color intensity into a square-wave frequency output (up to 600kHz), ideal for microcontrollers like Arduino or industrial PLCs. Programmable via S0-S3 pins for frequency scaling (1%, 2%, 5%, 50% of master clock).
| Parameter | Specification | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 2.7V to 5.5V DC | Low power for battery ops; typical 3.3V/5V |
| Supply Current | 12mA (operating) | 0.2µA shutdown—energy efficient |
| Output Frequency | 0 to 600kHz | Proportional to light intensity; 50% duty cycle |
| Photodiode Array | 64 pixels each (R,G,B,C) | 8x8 array for high resolution |
| Integration Time | 2.4ms to 513ms | Programmable via OUT high time |
| Responsivity | Red: 1.42µW/cm² → 100kHz Green: 0.72µW/cm² → 100kHz |
Blue: 0.30µW/cm² → 100kHz; Precise RGB balance |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to 100°C | Industrial grade durability |
| Package | 16-pin SOIC (6x6mm) | Compact for tight spaces |
| Interface | Digital frequency out | Single-wire to MCU; no ADC needed |
| Accuracy | ±1% chromaticity | After calibration; rejects ambient light |
