VL53L4CD Time-of-Flight Distance Sensor Carrier with Voltage Regulator, 120cm Max
This sensor is a carrier/breakout board for ST’s VL53L4CD laser-ranging sensor, which offers fast (up to 100 Hz) and accurate ranging from 1 mm to 1200 mm. It uses the time of flight (ToF) of invisible, eye-safe laser pulses to measure absolute distances independent of ambient lighting conditions and target characteristics like color, shape, and texture (though these things will affect the maximum range). Distance measurements can be read through a digital I²C interface. The board includes a 2.8 V linear regulator and level-shifters that allow it to work over an input voltage range of 2.6 V to 5.5 V, and the 0.1″ pin spacing makes it easy to use with standard solderless breadboards and 0.1″ perfboards.
