Electronic Component BOM and order: Generic Color Sensor Shield

Approved By: Muhannad Al Mohamed E&C DM, Charles Banuelos MFG DM

Designing The Color Sensor Shield

Charles Banuelos (MFG DM) and I have worked together to design the Color Sensor shield that would be used by the projects of the Robot Company. I was responsible for designing the schematic part and he was responsible for designing the layout part of the shield. The Shield is using two Color Sensing ICs (BH1745NUC) presented by Thomas Forman. This IC can be adjusted to have two different addresses, which makes I2C communication protocol usable while using two Color sensors.
