The Sparkfun AS7263 near-infrared (NIR) spectral sensor Breakout brings spectroscopy to the palm of your hand and makes it easier than ever to measure and characterize how different materials absorb and reflect different wavelengths of light. The AS7263 Breakout is unique in its ability to communicate with AT commands through both a I2C interface and a serial interface. The Qwiic connector on the board makes it easy to connect - simply insert one end of the Qwiic cable into the breakout and the other end into one of the Qwiic shields, then stack the board on a development board. You can upload a sketch to perform spectroscopic measurements in the shortest possible time.
The AS7263 spectrometer detects wavelengths in the visible range at 610, 680, 730, 760, 810 and 860 nm light, each with 20 nm half-value detection over the entire width. The board also has several options for you to illuminate objects you will try to measure for more accurate spectroscopy measurement. There is an onboard LED specially selected for this task, as well as two pins for soldering in a separate LED.
