about schematic for VL53L1X

Dear Sir,

We will make our own PCB for VL53L1X application. There are some difference between

VL53L1X breakout board schematic in UM2359 and VL53L1X schematic in the datasheet.

In Figure3 of datasheet, pin 4, 6, and 12 are connected to ground directly. But in VL53L1X breakout board, pin 4 and 12 are connected to a 1K resistor , and pin 6 is float status.

We use the connection shown in Figure3 in the datasheet of VL53L1X, I wonder if the connection is OK or not. or should we use the connection of the breakout board?

thank you very much for your help in advance.

best regards

Sai Dai

use the data in the datasheet. That board was probably designed BEFORE the datasheet was written. (That's why there are not-fitted options.)

The only impovement would be to put one 100nf caps each of the power pins. The extra cap cost almost nothing, and the closer the better.
