I've manufactured 160 boards implementing the VL53L0CXV0DH/1. Many work as expected but some of them (approximately 50 units) give 8191 always as a result. I've noticed that these devices should be treated carefully using a recommended reflow profile...
Hello,I am trying some settings on VL6180x for avoing "Max_Signal_To_Noise_Ratio" when ranginf under sunlight conditions.I have tried to disable DMAX (#define DEF_DMAX_ENABLE 0), but still I get the MAX snr errror.I have been trying to set other ...
Hi.Regarding the VL53L7CX, I downloaded STSW-IMG036 (API Source) from the product page and tried running the Nucleo board and sensor using the example project included there. However, the default sensor operation setting in the code is 16(4×4) zones,...
Hi ! I'm using the VL53L4CD sensor's example with the Nucleo-L432KC.A first problem I solved was that the VL53L4CD didn't have the adress 0x52 as in the documentation, but 0x29 (this problem has already mentioned in a topic).My current problem is tha...
There is an explanation about Zone mapping in the document as follows ： The area number in the above figure is consistent with the example VL53L5CX_ How do the return results in VL53L5CX_SimpleRanging ?In VL53L5CX_SimpleRanging ，There is the followin...
Hi @John E KVAM and @Anne BIGOT I'm attempting to mimic the ideal operation of the VL53L8CX in simulation. I've traced out 64 rays from the sensor within the the 45x45 degrees FOV as shown. Consider the top row (underlined in black) the rays are draw...
Hi,I am working on a project where I am using an array of 16 VL53L4CX to measure both the X and Y coordinate of any object in front of my sensor array. I want my loop time to be less than 50ms, so I am using 1MHz I2c clock. Currently I'm able to read...
Hi there, I am involved in a project comprising 16x VL53L4CX Sensors, we are trying to measure and track the x and y coordinates of an object in front of the sensor array. Currently, I can read from all sensors in 33ms on average. Even though I'm usi...
Hello,I am currently working with an STM32 MCU equipped with 128KB of flash memory, alongside the X-NUCLEO-53L8A1 Time-of-Flight expansion board featuring the VL53L8CX sensor. It has come to my attention that the sensor's firmware, as defined in vl53...
I am using the latest ULD driver of vl53l8cx. The sensor can work now. But when I use the function vl53l8cx_set_sharpener_percent to change the sharpener param, it does not work. There is no effection on the distance. I also used the vl53l5cx_set_sha...
