Color 3 click is a mikroBUS add-on board with a TCS3771 color sensor (also known as a light-to-digital converter) and a narrow beam Infrared LED. The circuit can also function as a proximity sensor.

TCS3771 is a RGBC sensor: it can detect Red, Green, Blue and clear light. The IC performs well under a variety of lighting conditions.

Library Description

The library covers all the necessary functions that enables the usage of the Color 3 Click board. It offers a choice of writing(in normal and special mode) and reading one byte or two bytes of data in and from registers. The library includes a functions for reading clear, red, green, blue (separately or all together) and proximity values. User can, also use functions to apply or check many different settings including, but not limited to: LED drive strength, diode selection, RGBC Gain Value, Set long wait... It is also possible to check the state of INT pin.

Key functions:

  • uint16_t color3_readRedData() - Read red data function.
  • uint16_t color3_readGreenData() - Read green data function. 
  • uint16_t color3_readBlueData() - Read blue data function.

Examples description

The application is composed of the three sections :

  • System Initialization - Initializes I2C module, LOG and GPIO structures, sets INT pin as input.
  • Application Initialization - Initalizes I2C driver, applies default settings and makes an initial log.
  • Application Task - (code snippet) This example demonstrates the use of Color 3 Click board. It reads reflected color values and displays the results on USART terminal.
void applicationTask()
{
    clearData = color3_readClearData();
    WordToStr( clearData, logTxt );
    ltrim( logTxt );
    mikrobus_logWrite( " Clear: ", _LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( logTxt, _LOG_LINE );

    redData = color3_readRedData();
    WordToStr( redData, logTxt );
    ltrim( logTxt );
    mikrobus_logWrite( " Red: ", _LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( logTxt, _LOG_LINE );

    greenData = color3_readGreenData();
    WordToStr( greenData, logTxt );
    ltrim( logTxt );
    mikrobus_logWrite( " Green: ", _LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( logTxt, _LOG_LINE );

    blueData = color3_readBlueData();
    WordToStr( blueData, logTxt );
    ltrim( logTxt );
    mikrobus_logWrite( " Blue: ", _LOG_TEXT );
    mikrobus_logWrite( logTxt, _LOG_LINE );

    mikrobus_logWrite( "-----------------", _LOG_LINE );
    Delay_ms( 1000 );
}

  • I2C
  • UART
  • Conversions

Additional notes and informations

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART clickUSB UART 2 click or RS232 click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. The terminal available in all MikroElektronika compilers, or any other terminal application of your choice, can be used to read the message.

Motion 4 click

0

Motion 4 Click is a long distance PaPIR's motion sensor with plastic lense and controllable output. This Click board features EKMC1603111, a PIR motion sensor from Panasonic Corporation which can be used as human motion detector and is able to detect movement up to 12m with 170uA current consumption. Also featured on Motion 4 Click bord is TLP241A photorelay from Toshiba that is used to provide a reinforced galvanic isolation for the external signals used to drive some external high power electronic equipment when motion is detected. It's allowing up to 40V between the SSR contacts in OFF state, and currents up to 2A while in ON state, thanks to a very low ON-state resistance. Motion 4 Click board™ is supported by a mikroSDK compliant library, which includes functions that simplify software development. This Click board™ comes as a fully tested product, ready to be used on a system equipped with the mikroBUS™ socket.
