Hello!
How long does it take for the colour sensor tcs3200 to recognize the colour?
Thanks in advance!

It depends on the light intensity, worst case is around a second (dark current) at max intensity a few microseconds. The diodes have to be read in turn, so the light intensity change must be static over the period of the four measurements for best results. The device has been superseded by the TCS34 series.

Hello!
Thanks first!
So is it backward?
TCS34 series is a new version?
Actually, I do not get more about this, I just have read an article(https://www.utmel.com/components/tcs3200-color-sensor-datasheet-arduino-working?id=869) about it and thought about the question.
Good luck!
R!

The TCS3400 works on a different principle, if you look at the data sheet there are four ADC's, which are accessed via a two wire bus, so it is not backwards compatible.
Cheers,

it all depends with the intensity of the light that the sensor is operating. Maximum intensity the sensor will take few microseconds to determine the output. For the minimum intensity, worst scenario is one second. Also ensure that your program is superb coz the sensor signals delivery will also depend on the program
