Description：

The VL53L0X is a Time-of-Flight (ToF) laser-ranging module housed in the smallest package on the market today, providing accurate distance measurement whatever the target reflectance, unlike conventional technologies. It can measure absolute distances up to 2 m, setting a new benchmark in ranging performance levels, opening the door to various new applications.The VL53L0X integrates a leading-edge SPAD array (single photon avalanche diodes) and embeds ST’s second generation FlightSense patented technology.The VL53L0X’s 940 nm VCSEL emitter (vertical cavity surface-emitting laser), is totally invisible to the human eye, coupled with internal physical infrared filters, it 

enables longer ranging distances, higher immunity to ambient light, and better robustness to cover glass optical crosstalk.
