Arduino library to support the VL53L5CX Time-of-Flight 8x8 multizone ranging sensor with wide field view.
This sensor uses I2C to communicate. And I2C instance is required to access to the sensor. The APIs provide simple distance measure and multizone detection in both polling and interrupt modes.
The examples contained in this library are based on VL53L5CX-SATEL sensor board. You need to connect the VL53L5CX-SATEL sensor board directly to the Nucleo board with wires as explained below:
- pin 1 (GND) of the VL53L5CX satellite connected to GND of the Nucleo board
- pin 2 (IOVDD) of the VL53L5CX satellite connected to 3V3 pin of the Nucleo board
- pin 3 (AVDD) of the VL53L5CX satellite connected to 5V pin of the Nucleo board
- pin 4 (PWREN) of the VL53L5CX satellite connected to pin A5 of the Nucleo board
- pin 5 (LPn) of the VL53L5CX satellite connected to pin A3 of the Nucleo board
- pin 6 (SCL) of the VL53L5CX satellite connected to pin D15 (SCL) of the Nucleo board
- pin 7 (SDA) of the VL53L5CX satellite connected to pin D14 (SDA) of the Nucleo board
- pin 8 (I2C_RST) of the VL53L5CX satellite connected to pin A1 of the Nucleo board
- pin 9 (INT) of the VL53L5CX satellite connected to pin A2 of the Nucleo board
