The MTCS-C2 ‘Colorimeter 2’ True Colour Sensor Board is a standard production board, which in addition to the colour sensor IC also integrates the complete signal amplification and processing as well as a microcontroller including the interface. Along with the sensor hardware, MaZet provides a USB driver and user software for:
• calibration of the measuring system on the basis of colour targets
• control of the sensor
• visualisation and logging of the measurement values in XYZ, Lab or similar.
The following components are integrated on the MTCS-C2 board:
• True Colour Sensor MTCSiCS
• Transimpedance professional amplifier MTI04CQ
• Microcontroller C8051F321 with 10-bit A/D industrial converter and USB interface
• EEPROM – available data memory for compensation and correction data
Items included:
The MTCS-C2 package includes:
• MTCS-C2 (µC Version 0.1x)
• documentation
• optional USB cable
• optional PC software ‘colorimeter2.exe’ (with USB driver as SYS and MTCSApi.dll)
(sensor calibration, display and output of measured values, for example in the CIELAB colour space)
• optional macro function library (API Application Program- ming Interface MTCSApi.DLL with test software)
• optional 2° optic aperture
