The VL53L1X is a state-of-the-art, Time-of-Flight (ToF), laser-ranging sensor, enhancing the ST FlightSense™ product family. It is the fastest miniature ToF sensor on the market with accurate ranging up to 4 m and fast ranging frequency up to 50 Hz.

Features

• Fully integrated miniature module – Emitter: 940 nm invisible laser (Class1) – SPAD (single photon avalanche diode) receiving array with integrated lens – Low-power microcontroller running advanced digital firmware

• Pin-to-pin compatible with the VL53L0X FlightSense™ ranging sensor

• Fast and accurate long distance ranging – Up to 400 cm distance measurement – Up to 50 Hz ranging frequency

• Typical full field-of-view (FoV): 27 °

• Programmable region-of-interest (ROI) size on the receiving array, allowing the sensor FoV to be reduced

• Programmable ROI position on the receiving array, providing multizone operation control from the host

• Easy integration – Single reflowable component – Can be hidden behind many cover window materials – Software driver and code examples for turnkey ranging – Single power supply (2v8) – I²C interface (up to 400 kHz) – Shutdown and interrupt pins
