Resolved! GUI for the VL53L8A eval board like there is for the VL53L5?
The eval board for the VL53L5 has a GUI that displays all of the zones. Is there a similar GUI for the 53L8 eval board? I don't see one listed on the Tools and Software tab for the eval board. Or is there a way to make the L5
Resolved! Is it possible to control the VL53L1X ToF sensor using the stm32f407?
Is it possible to control the VL53L1X ToF sensor using the stm32f407? because I am looking for the average website using the nucleo board.
Resolved! VL53L4CX spad map
Is there any way to get an overview of the 16x16 (time-integrated) SPAD array signals? I would like to see how the VCSEL spot looks on the SPAD matrix. Clearly, this information must be present on the chip itself, as it knows about its optical center...
Resolved! VL6180 AVDD question
Hello,I am planning to use VL6180 sensor in my application which is going to communicate with STM32L071. I would like to ask a question since the specification for the AVDD mentioning about optimal value is 2.8V. Do I need to provide some special LDO...
SATEL-VL53L8 level conversion
Hi everybody,I have purchased SATEL-VL53L8 package containing 2 breakout boards with VL53L8 ToF ranging sensor, and I encountered a peculiar hardware issue. A breakout board has been connected to an ESP32 dev board (3.3V logic level). I have been try...
Resolved! VL53L8CH GUI
Hello,I am interested in the ToF-Sensor VL53L8CH to get access to the histogram data. Is there any Evaluation-GUI to easily try out this sensor and to see the histogram data, similar to the GUI for the VL53L8CX (STSW-IMG041 - VL53L8CX Demo GUI)?Thank...
Resolved! Some GUI tool for ToF sensor can not find NUCLEO
On same Win10 PC and same NUCLEO-F401RE, STSW-IMG004, STSW-IMG008 can not. STSW-IMG024 can.Does anyone know the reason?
Resolved! VL53L0X: How to narrow the FOV
Greetings Team,Have a question (that may not be so quick). Currently working on a project where I need to detect a tube's length, using the VL53L0X, from ~30 to 200mm. The problem is that the inside dimensions of the tube are 20x11mm, quite tight. I'...
Resolved! How to properly drive the VL53L0X into Sleep mode?
The datasheet mentions putting the sensor into sleep by driving XSHUT low. measuring the power consumption shows that the power is consumed more when I connect XSHUT even when I drive it low by 200 microAmp. The XSHUT is normally pulled-up on the bre...
