Hi,i'm playing around with the VL53L4CX after putting it on my own pcb (yay).The user guide states that for the SPAD caliberation, NO target should be placed. The crosstalk requires a 600mm target.Do i understand correctly that the SPAD caliberation ...
Hi all, I am new to STM32 programming. I have been able to write a driver for an ultrasonic distance sensor, flash the board, and measure distance, in Rust. Now, I am trying to get a STM32F401RE to talk to a X-NUCLEO-53L7A1 ToF sensor, connected via ...
Hello, I have started working with the VL53L5CX ToF sensor, for 3d scanning. I have successfully interfaced the sensor with MCU and am able to read the data from it. I have read the datasheet and um2884 user manual as well which explains the differen...
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'm currently working with the VL53L5CX sensor and I came across the following definition in the header files of the API provided by ST : #define VL53L5CX_STATUS_CRC_CSUM_FAILED ((uint8_t) 3U)However, this constant doesn’t seem to be used anywh...
Hi,is there a way to distinguish both mentioned sensors other than by complex optical measurements (they have different FOVs)? We have built devices with both types of sensors and our firmware calculates x/y/z coordinates from the reported distances ...
Hi All,I see two order codes for the VL53L5CX: VL53L5CXV0GC/1 (with liner) VL53L5CXV9GC/1 (without liner) The datasheet says the liner must be removed before mounting the cover glass, but it’s not clear when the liner version is required.Could any...
Hi,We are trying to mount the VL537CX ToF(Pololu) sensor on roof of a car and map a certain area of the cabin. The sensor is pointed downwards.But we are observing the a pattern flashing (appearing for a single frame of ToF data) at an interval varyi...
Dear altruist, I need urgent help. Can I apply hardware-based external triggering in the VL53L8CX sensor by STM32 Nucleo F401RE? Will the sensor work for external triggering? Thank you
Hello,I have already use VL53L0X sensor provided by AZ-Delivery.My main problem is that I2C address can be changed but NOT permanently.I am looking to "Adafruit VL53L4CX Time of Flight Sensor". But I don't want to discover the same problem, that is I...
