Datasheet

1. Introduction
Once you have soldered the headers your
board is ready to be placed into desired
mikroBUS
™
socket. Make sure to align the
cut in the lower-right part of the board
with the markings on the silkscreen of
the mikroBUS
™
socket. If all of the pins are
aligned correctly, push the board all
the way into the socket.

4. Essential features
Turn the board upward again. Make sure
to align the headers so that they are
perpendicular to the board, then solder the
pins carefully.
Turn the board upside down to face
its bottom side. Place shorter parts of
the header pins in both soldering pad
locations.
Before using your click board
™
, make sure
to solder 1x8 male headers to both left
and right side of the board. Two 1x8 male
headers are included with the board in
the package.

with it’s TCS3471 IC is a color
light sensor that detects light intensity
under a variety of lightning conditions. The
TCS3471 contains 4x4 photodiode array,
integrating ampliers, ADCs, accumulators,
clocks, buers, comparators and state
machine. RGB LED is provided to help you
illuminate the objects if no other light source
is available. This board is ideal for RGB LED
backlight control, industrial process control,
medical diagnostic and many more.
