VL6180 Datasheet Proximity Sensor

Manufacturer: STMicroelectronics

Overview: VL6180.

General Description

The VL6180 is the latest product based on ST’s patented FlightSense™ technology.

This is a ground-breaking technology allowing absolute distance to be measured independent of target reflectance.

Instead of estimating the distance by measuring the amount of light reflected back from the object (which is significantly influenced by color and surface), the VL6180 precisely measures the time the light takes to travel to the nearest object and reflect back to the sensor (Time-of-Flight).

Key Features

  • Two-in-one smart optical module.
  • VCSEL light source.
  • Proximity sensor.
  • Fast, accurate distance ranging.
  • Measures absolute range from 0 to 62 cm max (depending on conditions).
  • Independent of object reflectance.
  • Ambient light rejection.
  • Cross-talk compensation for cover glass.
  • Gesture recognition.
  • Distance and signal level can be used by host system to implement gesture recognition.
  • Demo systems (implemented on.
