Description
Features:
1. ST Microelectronics' VL53L0X is a time-of-flight ranging system integrated in a compact module. This board is the carrier of VL53L0X, so we suggest you to read the VL53L0X data sheet (1MB pdf) carefully before using this product.
2. VL53L0 uses ST's FlightSense technology to measure the time it takes for the emitted infrared laser pulse to reach a close object and reflect back to the detector, so it can be considered a small, self-contained lidar system. This time-of-flight (TOF) measurement makes it possible to determine the distance to the target 6?7?6?7, and the reflectivity of the object will not greatly affect the measurement. The sensor can report a distance of up to 2 m (6.6 ft) with a resolution of 1 mm, but its effective range and accuracy (noise) are heavily dependent on environmental conditions and target characteristics (such as reflectivity and size) and sensor configuration. (The accuracy of the sensor is specified as good from ±3% to more than ±10% under poor conditions).
3. The measurement range is provided through the sensor's I2C (TWI) interface, which is also used to configure sensor settings. The sensor also provides two additional pins: shutdown input and interrupt output.
4. VL53L0X is a great IC, but its small, leadless, LGA package makes it difficult for typical students or hobbyists to use. It also works at the recommended voltage of 2.8 V, which may make it difficult to interface with a microcontroller operating at 3.3 V or 5 V. Our breakout board solves these problems and makes it easier to start using the sensor while keeping the overall size as small as possible.
Description：
VDD regulated 2.8 V output. Almost 150 mA can be used to power external components. (If you want to bypass the internal regulator, you can use this pin as a 2.8 V input and disconnect VIN).
VIN This is the main 2.6 V to 5.5 V power connection. The SCL and SDA level shifters pull the I2C line up to this level.
GND The ground (0 V) connection of the power supply. Your I2C control source must also share a common ground with the board.
SDA level conversion I2C data line: HIGH is VIN, LOW is 0 V
SCL level shift I2C clock line: HIGH is VIN, LOW is 0 V
XSHUT This pin is an active low shutdown input; by default, the board pulls it up to VDD to enable the sensor. Drive this pin low to make the sensor enter the hardware standby state. This input does not perform level conversion.
