Sir,
I am using TCS3200 color sensor. In the data sheet, it is specified that 
the output of the mentioned sensor is frequency in the form of square 
pulses. How can I find out the frequency value from that output? Anyone 
have the code for TCS3200 color sensor with ARM LPC1769? Please help.

You can connect the pin from the sensor that generates this waveform and 
connect it to an Oscilloscope or Logic Analyzer.

Uuh, you face the problem that you can't use a search engine with the 
terms 'TCS3200 color sensor code' too?
