The output of each channel is a voltage that is linearly proportional to light intensity (irradiance) on the corresponding photodiode element. Gain is switchable via a digital input pin from 1× to 4× on the TCS3104, and from 2× to 4× on the TCS3103 (as compared to 1× of TCS3104). Each channel on the device consists of a photodiode with a red, green, or blue optical filter, a current-to-voltage converter, and gain control elements. The voltage from each of the red, green, and blue channels is output on the VOR, VOG, and VOB pins, respectively. The single MFP pin controls the gain for all three channels. Each of the three photodiode channels is split into three elements, which are dispersed in a 3 × 3 array. This makes the device less sensitive to non-uniform illumination across the sensing area. The overall photodiode active area is 378 μm × 378 μm. Each channel is factory-trimmed for low dark offset voltage and uniform sensitivity from device-to-device. The TCS3103 and TCS3104 are intended for use in a variety of applications including color-point feedback control in solid-state illumination and backlight systems, color adjustment in printers, process controls, diagnostic systems, paper and product handling, toys, and games.

Figure 2 shows how each sensor responds to light of various wavelengths. The peak response of each of the three channels roughly corresponds to blue, green, and red portions of the visible light spectrum. Thus, when light impinges upon the three elements, each element gives an output that corresponds to the blue, green, and red components of the light. By measuring the amplitude and ratios of the three channels, information about the color of the light can be obtained. Each channel responds linearly to light intensity from a range of near zero light to a maximum value that is determined by the gain and the supply voltage of the device. The output of the device can swing from near ground level to near the supply voltage of the device. The dark voltage, or output of the device with no light input, is determined by internal amplifier offsets and is factory-trimmed to be a minimum value. If very accurate, low-level light measurement is required, the dark voltage value for each channel can be measured and subtracted from subsequent light readings to obtain a more accurate light measurement. The Multifunction Pin (MFP) on each device can be used for selecting gain mode (Table 1). Table 1.

Output Interface Although the output of the device can be connected to a comparator for simple threshold measurements, or to another amplifier stage, most applications will require that the three channels be connected to analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) so that the light and color information can be processed by a microcontroller, computer, or other device. In many cases, the outputs can be directly connected to the ADC inputs. In some cases, for example if the light is modulated, it may be desirable to insert active or passive low-pass filters on the channels prior to the ADC, to smooth out the modulation ripple that would otherwise result in noisy measurements. The cutoff frequency of the filters would, of course, depend upon the modulation frequency of the incoming light. With a pulse-width modulated (PWM) input light signal, it may be possible to synchronize the ADC sampling with the on-time of the PWM signal. In this case, a low-pass filter would not be required because the device output would be sampled only during the on time of the input light source. A recommendation for minimum pulse width would be 3 × the rise time of the device under the chosen gain setting. Device Power Up The TCS310x should use the following power up sequence: A stable ground reference from the system should be applied first, followed by the VDD power applied second. This means VDD cannot be applied while the GND pin is floating or without a ground reference. Afterward, the MFP pin may be biased or driven. The MFP pin must always have a valid logic reference level. The pin may be biased or driven to a logical high or logical low level.

To ensure the package molding compound contains the smallest amount of absorbed moisture possible, each device is dry-baked prior to being packed for shipping. Devices are packed in a sealed aluminized envelope with silica gel to protect them from ambient moisture during shipping, handling, and storage before use. The FN package has been assigned a moisture sensitivity level of MSL 3 and the devices should be stored under the following conditions: Temperature Range Relative Humidity Total Time Opened Time 5°C to 50°C 60% maximum 6 months from the date code on the aluminized envelope — if unopened 168 hours or fewer Rebaking will be required if the devices have been stored unopened for more than 6 months or if the aluminized envelope has been open for more than 168 hours. If rebaking is required, it should be done at 50°C for 12 hours. Copyright E 2010, TAOS Inc.
