VL53L8CX Description
The VL53L8CX is an 8x8 multizone, ToF ranging sensor, which enhances performance under ambient light with a reduced power consumption. Based on STMicroelectronics' FlightSense technology, the sensor is designed to provide accurate ranging up to 400 cm with a 65° diagonal FoV. The VL53L8CX integrates a powerful new generation VCSEL, and two advanced metasurface lenses.
VL53L8CX Key Features
- New generation, multizone Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensor with low-power and enhanced distance ranging performance
- Multizone distance measurement capability with either 4x4 or 8x8 separate zones
- Autonomous low-power mode with interrupt programmable threshold to wake up the host
- Ranging up to 400 cm, with enhanced performance under ambient light
- Multitarget detection and distance measurement in each zone
- Histogram processing and algorithmic pensation to minimize or remove the impact of cover glass crosstalk
- Motion indicator for each zone to show if targets have moved and how they have moved
- Frame rate capability of 60 Hz
- Fully integrated miniature module with wide field of view (FoV)
- New generation, high-power emitter: 940 nm invisible light VCSEL (vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser) and integrated
VL53L8CX Applications
- System activation under ambient light for smart buildings and smart lighting. For example: user detection to wake up devices
- Content management for tanks, loads in trucks, and waste bins
