MAZeT’s  MTCS-INT-AB4 sensor board offers the latest generation of OEM True Colour sensor boards based on the JENCOLOR filter technology. The sensor board can be directly attached to the light source via simple optical connectors. The board sends the measured colour values to the attached electronic input via an I²C interface (XYZ values based on CIE1931). The recorded input data can be used for any colour management task.

The new products will be demonstrated at the SENSOR + TEST international trade fair in Nuremberg from June 3rd to 5th 2014.

The board includes the MTCSiCF True Colour sensor as well as an MCDC04EQ analogue-to-digital signal converter which makes it possible to use a real colour feedback loop for LED solutions to eliminate colour drifts caused by temperature fluctuations, aging or binning.

The MTCS-INT-AB4 OEM sensor board assists companies without their own hardware development to integrate a cost-efficient solution or to provide initial testing options.


Applications:

– Colour control via feedback loop of multi-coloured LEDs

– Colour measurement for display calibration

– Sensor unit for colorimeters or photometers

For system and application testing, the MTCS-INT-AB4 sensor board is also available in form of a Development Kit. The sensor board is mounted in an ESD-protected casing and controlled via an I2C-to-USB interface. The sensor system can be configured and calibrated with the bundled PC test software. The specification of the sensor and the sensor electronics is accessed via flexible control files at PC level.

After successful validation of an application using the Development Kit, the programming of the sensor electronics can be mapped to a microcontroller and the sensor board can be integrated directly via I2C. A video is at; www.youtube.com/user/mazetgmbhjena
