Introducing the VL53L4CDV0DH/1 Time-of-Flight Sensor from STMicroelectronics
The VL53L4CDV0DH/1 is a state-of-the-art Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensor from the renowned semiconductor company, STMicroelectronics. This cutting-edge sensor is designed to deliver precise distance measurement and proximity detection in a variety of applications, making it a versatile component for designers and engineers.
At the heart of the VL53L4CDV0DH/1 is ST's patented FlightSense™ technology, which enables the sensor to accurately measure the time it takes for emitted light to reflect back from an object. This technology ensures high accuracy and speed over a wide measurement range, with distance measurements possible up to 4 meters, depending on conditions.
Key Features:
- High Precision: The sensor offers excellent accuracy and repeatability, with a measurement resolution down to 1mm.
- Fast Ranging Frequency: It can perform distance measurements at a high rate, with up to 50 Hz ranging frequency.
- Multipurpose: Suitable for a wide array of applications, including robotics, user detection, drones, and IoT devices.
- Programmable Regions of Interest (ROI): This feature allows for multi-zone scanning and selective targeting, enhancing the sensor's flexibility.
- Compact Form Factor: The small package size (4.9mm x 2.5mm x 1.56mm) makes it ideal for space-constrained applications.
- Low Power Consumption: It is designed for efficiency, which is critical for battery-powered and mobile devices.
The VL53L4CDV0DH/1 also comes with a host of additional features such as a programmable interrupt function, which allows the sensor to notify the host system when a preset threshold has been crossed. This capability is invaluable for power-saving strategies where constant polling of the sensor is not desirable.
