Product description: Fermion - AS7341 11-channel visible light sensor - DFRobot SEN0365
A module manufactured byDFRobotwith an embeddedAS7341chip. It is an 11-channel visiblelightsensor that uses a new generation of chip -the spectralsensor. The module has eightvisible lightchannels, onenear-infraredchannel and onefilterlesschannel. Additionally, it also has one channel dedicated toambient light flicker detection. The sensor fromDFRobotis equipped with 6 independent16-bit ADC channelsthat allow parallel data processing.
Theproduct is compatible with Arduino
. The manufacturer prepared detaileduser guideandlibrary with sample program codefor Arduino IDE environment.
Example diagram of sensor connection using DFRobot board, Arduino equivalent. The board is not a part of the kit, you can buy it separately in our shop.
