Hi everyone,
I’m having issues with the VL53L7CHV0GC ToF sensor drivers on Linux. The kernel module loads fine, but I can’t read any data using the userspace part. When I try to use the driver completely in userspace mode, it reports that it can’t find the device on the bus, even though the device is physically present and visible on I²C.
I use official sources from STMicroelectronics website.
Has anyone encountered the same issue or maybe has a newer / fixed version of these drivers that works correctly?
If not, at least a detailed datasheet with the I²C register description - which also doesn’t seem to be available online - would be really helpful, so we have a chance to write our own drivers.
Thanks in advance!
