no Satel-VL53L8CX SPI example

[Antonin_m84]

Hi! I am developing a project which uses the satel-Vl53l8cx. I found many examples in I2C but none in SPI.

The only one would be in VL53L8CX_ULD_driver_2.0.0 but this one was coded for the X-nucleo-Vl53l8A1. 

A wiring is shown in AN5945 in SPI but in the CUSTOM->simpleranging folder the example is in I2C.

Could this be a mistake? I can't find any example for my satel-vl53l8cx in SPI.

Thanks

Antonin

Hello @Antonin_m84 , 

According to the VL53L8CX_ULD_driver_2.0.0, you can download it from the following link: Download Link.

We have a CubeIDE_F401RE_Example_SPI, which contains an example SPI with the VL53L8CX, as shown in the image below.

For the configuration and other details on the VL53L8CX, you can refer to the application note and the user manual:

• Application Note: How to connect the SATEL-VL53L8 to an STM32 Nucleo-64 board - Application note
• User Manual: A guide for using the VL53L8CX, low-power, high-performance Time-of-Flight multizone ranging sensor - User manual (st.com)

I hope my answer has helped you. When your question is answered, please select this topic as solution that answered you, it will help others find that answer faster.
