Readings are available as raw 16-bit values or calibrated floating-point values over I2C.\n\nThe breakout includes an SPI flash chip pre-programmed with device firmware, a 3.3V regulator, I2C level shifting, and a built-in LED flash for reflecting light off objects for improved colour detection. A UART interface (AT command compatible) is also available as an alternative to I2C.\n\nKey Features\n\n\n6 Spectral Channels – Silicon interference filters at 450, 500, 550, 570, 600 and 650 nm\n\nCalibrated Output – Raw 16-bit or calibrated floating-point readings\n\nOn-Board Temperature Sensor – Reads chip temperature\n\nLED Flash – Built-in illumination for reflective colour measurement\n\nDual Interface – I2C (default) and UART with AT commands\n\nWide Voltage Range – 3–5V with on-board regulator and level shifting\n\nFTDI-Compatible UART Pinout – Plug-and-play with FTDI Friend\n\n\nAlso Available\n\n\nAS7341 10-Channel Light Sensor – More channels with STEMMA QT\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nColour detection and classification\nSpectral analysis of light sources\nColour sorting systems\nEnvironmental light quality monitoring\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× Adafruit AS7262 6-Channel Visible Light / Colour Sensor Breakout\n","vendor":"Adafruit","product_type":"physical","in_stock":false,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":7199,"title":"Default Title","sku":"AF-3779","price":40.2,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":false,"available_quantity":0,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
