Hello community,I'm new to using this sensor, but based on some initial testing I'm hoping it's a good fit for my application. I was hoping to get some general opinions/guidance on the approach I'm planning, so any tips/feedback are greatly appreciat...
Hello, I have a problem when I try to run the SPD code under STM32cube IDE, I have this under the serial monitor which remains stuck like this: SPD ULD SW Kit version 1.0.0Module type = VL53L8CXModule ID : 0000000000000000_VL53L8CBV0GC/1$2FW Version ...
I am using a pcb4188_vd66g1 camera module with a Raspberry Pi 5.The system has been freshly set up with Raspberry Pi OS 64-bit, and I followed the official setup guide step by step.After completing the setup:The camera is detected correctly when runn...
Hi everyone,I’m working with the VL53L0X sensor and I noticed that when it starts ranging, the supply voltage (of my board with the VL53L0X, the Vcc pin) drops from 3.389 V down to 2.544 V.In this setup, the VL53L0X is powered from the 3.3 V pin of a...
Hi,Currently, we are testing vl53l8cxv0gc/1 by placing an object in front and moving it and reading the values. Is there a way to test the functionality of vl53l8cxv0gc/1 in a production environment? Is there a self test mechanism for this sensor?Tha...
Hi, I'm trying the VL53L7CX sensor for a prototype and I'm trying the example codes provided within this page https://www.st.com/en/embedded-software/stsw-img036.html I'm experimenting the Example_10_motion_indicator and I'm able to display the "mot...
Hi everyone,I’m currently using the VL53L0X sensor to measure the liquid level inside a container, and I have a question regarding the offset calibration procedure described in the documentation.Is it really necessary to perform the offset calibratio...
Hello,I have been using the this ToF sensor along an ESP32-WROOM MCU for a while without major issues. My impementation of the i2c interface seems to be working well since in most simple ranging cases everything works well.However, recently, i have b...
The most viewed and commented post on the Imaging page had to do with an Init failure on the multizone part. These parts have large I2C writes at the beginning, which is downloading the Firmware (on the L5 and L7) and downloading patch updates on the...
On page 9 of https://www.st.com/resource/en/datasheet/vl53l1x.pdf, it is written:"Ranging is continuous, with a programmable delay between two ranging operations (called anintermeasurement period)"This is wrong. It should be:"Ranging is continuous, w...
