== Summary ==<br />
The TCS3200 is a static RGB color sensor with four filters (red, green, blue, clear). The output is a square wave whose frequency is proportional to light intensity. The module includes four white LEDs for illumination.<br />

'''Commands and examples – verify before use:''' <br />
<syntaxhighlight lang="text"><br />
sudo apt-get install p7zip-full<br />
sudo wget https://files.waveshare.com/upload/3/33/Color-Sensor-code.7z<br />

== Notes and version constraints ==<br />
* The Pico examples assume the provided MicroPython firmware; with different firmware the code may run abnormally.<br />
* STM32 examples are based on STM32F103RB; other boards require custom wiring and code adaptation.<br />
* White balance adjustment must be repeated after every reset or change of the light source.<br />
* External ambient light distorts measurements; for reliable results, test the module inside a closed, non-reflective box.<br />
