ams OSRAM TCS3448 14-Channel Multi-Spectral Color Sensor
ams OSRAM TCS3448 14-Channel Multi-Spectral Color Sensor is designed for precise color analysis and spectral matching in demanding applications. This high-performance multi-spectral color sensor features 10 equally spaced visible channels, along with dedicated infrared, clear, and flicker detection channels, enabling accurate spectral reconstruction and characterization of ambient light. With an integrated analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and I2C interface, the TCS3448 from ams OSRAM simplifies system integration while delivering high-resolution spectral data. Ideal for color calibration, display profiling, horticultural lighting control, and material identification, this sensor supports advanced color science and machine learning applications where spectral accuracy and repeatability are critical.
