SPECIFICATIONS

The VL53L0 is the 1 time-of-flight (ToF) laser ranging sensor. It enables accurate distance measurement of objects by measuring the time it takes for an infrared laser pulse to be emitted from the sensor and returned. Compared with the traditional infrared ranging module, the VL53L0X has the advantages of fast ranging speed, strong resistance to ambient light interference, and the measurement results are not easily affected by the color and material of the object. It is widely used in robot obstacle avoidance, UAV height setting, smart home, gesture recognition and other fields.

Power supply: 3~5V.
Communication mode: 1IC communication protocol,
Measuring juedui distance: 2m
Pin Description:
VIN: Power positive.
GND: Power supply ground
SCL:1IC Serial Clock Input
SDA:1IC Serial Data
GPIO 1: Sensor interrupt output pin to indicate if data is ready
XSHUT: The sensor turns off the pin and is pulled high by default. When the pin is pulled low, the sensor enters the off mode

Instructions for use:
VL53L0 can complete all measurement operations within a-frame picture, usually in less than 30ms and at a distance of less than 2 meters. This ranging performance allows the photographing system to focus instantly in camera and continuous shooting modes, and even maintains the same performance in low-light or low-contrast scenes. Unlike traditional infrared proximity detection sensors, the VL53L0X outputs ranging results accurate to millimeters, and the color and reflected light of the target object will not affect the ranging results. Fast response FlightSenseTM technology, the sensor completes the ranging calculation inside, and outputs data through the I2C bus interface. The internal laser emits 940nm wavelength non-visible light, which does not harm the eyes and enhances the anti-interference performance of the external light source.
Description of optical cover sheet: The optical cover sheet is matched with VL 53L0X V2 for more accurate measurement, and at the same time protects the sensor and prolongs the service life of the sensor. Customers can choose and match it by themselves.

ZY-VL 53L0X laser ranging sensor module is a module based on VL 53L .0X chip integrated with peripheral LD0, level conversion and 12C pull-up resistor, which expands double rows of gold-plated pinholes and stamp holes with a spacing of 2.54mm, which is convenient for users to weld and expand, and can also be directly pasted into users' products. The module adopts 12C communication and supports wide working voltage.

4. Using pulse ranging technology to avoid the error of phase ranging detection peak.
5, three working mode selection and 4 precision measurement mode selection.
6. Ranging distance up to 2 meters.
7. I2C communication rate reaches 400KHz

The VL 6180 is a time-of-flight ranging sensor. The sensor consists of a very small laser source and a matching sensor. The VL 61 80X can detect the "time of flight", or the time required for the laser to recover the sensor to calculate the distance.
Unlike most distance sensors, which rely on reflected light intensity or reflected angle to determine distance, the VL6180 uses a precise clock to measure the time it takes for light to bounce off a surface, which is different from ultrasonic sonar because it uses a very narrow light source. Unlike traditional infrared distance sensors, because there is no linearity problem or "double imaging", you cannot tell whether an object is close. Therefore, the VL61 80X is more accurate. The VL6180 module is recommended to handle distances of 5mm to 100mm. Due to the small size of the sensor module, it is easy to use in any robot or interactive project. You can use it with any 3-5V power supply or logic microcontroller 1.

Product characteristics
1. Integrated intelligent optical module, can be used for proximity sensing, ranging and other functions;
2. Fast and accurate distance measurement. Measure from 0 to 100mm above the absolute range. Based on the measurement of spontaneous beam reflection independent of the object, the measurement range of more than 100mm can be used in some extremely ideal target reflectivity and environment, but it is not guaranteed;
3. I2C interface for device control and data, two programmable GPIOs.
