These channels can be read via the I2C bus as either raw 16-bit values or calibrated floating-point values. There is also an on-board temperature sensor that can be used to read the temperature of the chip, and a powerful LED flash to reflect light off objects for better colour detection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 6 channels on the AS7262 are realized by silicon interference filters at 450nm, 500nm, 550nm, 570nm, 600nm, and 650nm. This breakout uses the I2C interface on the chip by default, but a UART interface that accepts AT commands is also selectable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdafruit have placed the sensor on a PCB for you and included an SPI flash chip pre-programmed with the device firmware, a 3.3V regulator, I2C level shifting, and the recommended LED flash. Both the I2C and UART interfaces are broken out, making this breakout an excellent all-in-one solution for all your colour-sensing needs. The pinout for the UART interface is plug-and-play compatible with the Adafruit FTDI Friend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/learn.adafruit.com\/adafruit-as7262-6-channel-visible-light-sensor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eAdafruit have also prepared software libraries to get you up and running in Arduino or CircuitPython with just a few lines of code!\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTECHNICAL DETAILS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/learn.adafruit.com\/adafruit-as7262-6-channel-visible-light-sensor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eCheck out the full guide for schematics, datasheets, Arduino \u0026amp; CircuitPython code and more!\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Dimensions: 27.8mm x 25.0mm x 3.9mm \/ 1.1\" x 1.0\" x 0.2\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct Weight: 2.6g \/ 0.1oz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Adafruit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":2958767587338,"sku":"ADA3779","price":19.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/products\/3779-00.jpg?v=1523020593","url":"https:\/\/shop.pimoroni.com\/en-eu\/products\/adafruit-as7262-6-channel-visible-light-color-sensor-breakout","provider":"Pimoroni Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
