Product overview
Description
The VL53L4CD_ULD API is a set of C functions controlling the VL53L4CD device (for example, init and ranging) to enable the development of end-user applications. The VL53L4CD ULD is an optimized driver with only two files required for basic ranging. The API can be compiled on any kind of platform through a well isolated platform layer (mainly for low-level I2C access). One example code is provided to show how to use the API and perform ranging measurements.
Specifically designed for proximity and short-range measurements, the VL53L4CD provides very accurate distance measurements from only 1 mm up to 1200 mm. A new generation laser emitter with 18° FoV improves performances under ambient light, with ranging speed up to 100 Hz.
With very low power consumption, thanks to an Autonomous mode with programmable distance threshold, the VL53L4CD is ideal for use in battery powered devices. Its fully embedded on-chip processing helps to reduce design complexity as well as BOM cost since less powerful and less expensive microcontrollers can be used.
