Product overview

Description

The X-CUBE-TOF1 expansion software package for the STM32Cube runs on the STM32. It includes drivers that recognize the sensors and perform simple ranging on single or multiple devices.

The expansion is built on STM32Cube software technology to ease portability across different STM32 microcontrollers.

The software comes with a sample implementation of the drivers. They run on the VL53L1, VL53L3CX, VL53L4CD, VL53L4CX, VL53L4ED, VL53L5CX, VL53L7CX, and VL53L8CX development boards. The boards are connected to a featured STM32 Nucleo development board.

The software provides sample applications such as: simple ranging for expansion board and breakout boards, multisensors ranging, and calibration.
