The ams TCS3400‑EVM is a dedicated evaluation board designed to support rapid prototyping and performance analysis of the TCS3400 ambient light and RGB+IR colour sensor from ams‑OSRAM. Supporting I²C interface and USB 2.0 host connectivity, the board includes a central controller (PIC microcontroller), a USB cable, a daughterboard carrying the TCS3400 sensor, and GUI software that allows users to measure illuminance (lux) and colour temperature.

Unique Features and Benefits of Buying the ams Light Colour Sensor Evaluation Board for TCS3400

  • Plug‑and‑play USB 2.0 interface simplifies connection to PC for fast evaluation.
  • I²C communication channel supports direct control over sensor gain, timing, and interrupt settings.
  • Pre‑configured GUI software monitors RGB, Clear and IR channels and computes lux and colour temperature values.
  • Daughterboard layout ensures minimal noise and correct sensor positioning for optical accuracy.
  • Compatible with the TCS3400 device family, enabling evaluation of ambient light, colour and IR sensing.
  • Ideal for test and development in display, lighting, automation and sensor‑integration projects.

Engineered for Accurate Colour and Ambient Light Sensing

The TCS3400‑EVM facilitates sensor integration by providing a stable test platform. Incorporating the TCS3400 colour sensor, the board allows precise measurement of red, green, blue, clear and IR photodiode outputs. Its GUI supports gain control and timing management (with AGAIN settings of 1×, 4×, 16× and 64×) to optimise sensitivity and dynamic range. The USB‐connected evaluation board helps engineers characterise sensor behaviour in realistic lighting conditions before committing to a complete production layout.

Application Potential of the Board

  • Display back‑light and colour‑gamut calibration in screen manufacturing.
  • Ambient‑light and colour‑temperature detection for building‑automation systems.
  • Sensor prototyping in robotics.
  • Proof‑of‑concept in smart lighting and IoT devices.
  • Research and development of sensor modules for industrial visual systems or consumer electronics.
