VL53L0X Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The VL53L0X from STMicroelectronics is a compact LIDAR distance sensor module utilizing time-of-flight technology for accurate range measurements up to 2 meters. This sensor is built around ST's second-generation FlightSense technology, employing a 940 nm Vertical Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser (VCSEL) which is safe for human eyes and invisible.

 

Key features include an operating voltage range of 2.6V to 5.5V, a supply current of 10mA, and I2C communication protocol for easy integration with microcontrollers. The module incorporates a 2.8V linear voltage regulator and a level shifter, simplifying its use in various embedded systems. Its design effectively prevents optical cross-talk and offers immunity to ambient light conditions, making it suitable for applications requiring precise distance detection.

 

The VL53L0X has found widespread use in consumer electronics, notably in smartphones for features like autofocus and 3D imaging. Its capabilities also extend to robotics for obstacle detection, gesture recognition, and in automated systems like hand driers and faucets.
