Resolved! VL53L4CD Low Power mode power consumption?

Hi,I am trying to find a low power solution for close range (down to 1mm) proximity detection at 1Hz frequency. It seems VL53L4CD can do the job pretty good but I didn't find power consumption details of low power mode in the datasheet.I also found t...

VL53L4CD repeatability of small measurements

I see from the datasheet that the indoor measurement accuracy at 1-100mm is +/-7mm. I’d like to use the sensor to measure the deflection of a piece of stainless steel, which is used as part of an actuator to hold an object still for measurement. Basi...

VL53L1 Solar Test Method

Hello.I am using the VL53L1.It's fine for indoor lighting.However, in sunlight, the measurable distance becomes shorter.Is there any way to test it similar to this sunlight?Could you please tell me how to test it in relation to sunlight?​thank you.

What's the meaning of the Reference SPADs calibration? What's the meaning of the number and type of reference SPADs? What happens if VL53L0X_SetReferenceSpads() and VL53L0X_GetReferenceSpads() are not used?

I have used VL53L0X without using VL53L0X_SetReferenceSpads() and VL53L0X_GetReferenceSpads(). The VL53L0X are working well without using them. I found out that some VL53L0Xs have narrower FOV than others and that VL53L0X_SetReferenceSpads() and VL53...

We would like to use the VL6180 sensor in an underwater robot and we would like to know some details about the sensor in order to find the most suitable configuration for our needs.

Is it possible to adjust the LED current ? (increase the current a little bit to compensate for water absorption).Could you give us more details about the WAF? because we've observed a strange behavior during underwater measurements (for targets with...
