Hello,I’ve been reviewing the current consumption section (Section 7.4) of the VL53L8CH datasheet.I’m currently using the Detection Thresholds plugin, and I would like to ask:Which power mode does this correspond to?Continuous mode (Table 15)?Autonom...
How do you perform a soft reset on the VL53L4CD if XSHUT is not used? I can't seem to find an example. I see the VL53L4CD_ULP_SOFT_RESET or VL53L4CD_SOFT_RESET is defined, but I don't know what to write to it.Also, how do you shut the sensor down w...
Hi everyone,I'm currently developing firmware for the VL53L1X Time-of-Flight sensor on a breakout board using STM32CubeIDE, and I’m working with the bare driver provided by ST (not the ULD). I’d like to implement the complete calibration sequence, bu...
Hello everyone, i'm trying to use the vd66gy with the raspbeery Pi x64 connected on cam0 and im following all the steps of the "Linux Start Guide for ST BrightSense" but it still doesnt work. I downloaded the drivers for the camera as well as the lib...
Hi,I want to know the exposure time of VL53L5CX per frame.I also want to know that it is possible to configure the exposure time?Best,Jsc.
I wish to connect the P-board, which has a 22-pin connector, to a Raspberry Pi that has a 15-pin camera connector (From the Raspberry Pi 1/2/3/4 series, not the 5). The datasheet for the P-board only gives a vague suggestion. Is there a specific cabl...
Hi John, Could please confirm if the slew rate requirement of VL53L8CX is satisfied in the EVM X-NUCLEO-53L8A1? We're considering to use TI's TLV751180330PDSQR to power up the VL53L8CX sensor. But the TLV751180330PDSQR supports 11mV/µS approx. Also,...
Hello ! I am calibrating a VL53L4CD ToF sensor. Is it suggested to set a large timing budget (e.g. 200 ms) for the offset and crosstalk calibrations' distance measurement process? In the distance measurement examples, the timing budget is set to 10 m...
Hi,i've been posting here a few times to get a VL53L4CX to work. I've had success so far, but the latest iteration of my little PCB is really giving me troubles.When i apply power to my board (via an esp board) it stops working (the esp32 board). It ...
I am guessing there is nothing that can be done about this, but I thought I'd post about it. I got the VL53L8CH because it has better bin resolution than the VL53L3CX, which I hoped to use to distinguish between objects at different ranges that are c...
