Help with vl53l0x and stm32f103

I need help with the vl53l0x sensor and stm32f103 board if anyone can help me with programming or any library.

Definitions or exact meaning for signal rate and other parameters

Hi,We are using VL53L5 TOF sensor for our development, Unit for signal rate is MCPS (mega counts per seconds). What exactly is it counting? Is it measure of intensity of signal received? Does it mean that, Higher the signal rate, higher is intensity...

Can I power the VL53L1X with 3V3?

The typical IOVDD (2V8 mode) and AVDD of the VL53L1X may be 3V3 according the datasheet.In ST applications (for example the X-NUCLEO-53L1A1) a levelshifter is used to interface the 2V8 powered sensor with the 3V3 powered MCU.I want to use the VL53L1...

What does the VL53L1_run_spad_rate_map function do in the VL53L1X API?

Hello everyone,I was searching the VL53L1X's Full API and I came across with a function in the "api_calibration" class called " VL53L1_run_spad_rate_map". My question is what quantity does the “SPAD rate�? indicate? And what task does this function e...

VL53L0X Calibration

We are putting the VL53L0X in a device with a tinted lens cover. Example shown bellow. I wanted to know about the calibration process during manufacturing that is recommended in the Application note. Is the calibration different from each individua...

i am trying to merge vl53l1x API to nrf52....it is giving me an errors to files "vl53l1_platform_user_data.h" "vl53l1_wait.h" the errors are unknown type name 'VL53L1_DevData_t'

Does VL53L1x GUI Software works for all nucleo-64 boards?

I have Nucleo-F446RE and  VL53L1x satel. I have connected pins as followSCL - D15SDA-D14INT-A2GND-GNDVDD-3v3When I open GUI software It says Sensor not detected.

Hi! I’m planning on using VL53L1X sensors to control an aircraft maintenance platform. I would like to know how dust (for example when the aircraft is being painted), luminosity and vibrations affect measurements. Thank you in advance!

broken TOF sensor vl53l0x

I am using the vl53l0x tof sensor in one of my products but I am currently experiencing a huge amount of fallout on this product.On a batch of 30, I had 10 broken VLX53l0x TOF sensors after soldering.What occured, the sensor started to pull down itse...
