Distance sensor Laser - Time of Flight - VL6180X/TOF050C - 50cm
Product information:
The TOF050C is a compact Time‑of‑Flight (ToF) sensor based on the STMicroelectronics VL6180 chip, designed for accurate distance measurement up to 50 cm. It features FlightSense™ technology that provides reliable dimensions regardless of the color or texture of the object
Key Features:
- Measuring range: 2–50 cm (dead zone 0–2 cm)
- Operating principle: infrared laser (850 nm) with ToF measurement
- Field of view (FoV): approx. 25°
- Interface: digital I²C (default address 0x29)
- Supply voltage: 3 – 5 V DC
- Current consumption: typical 25 mA during measurement, max ~40 mA
- Operating temperature: –20 °C to +70 °C
- Dimensions: approx. 20mm × 11mm (module without headers)
The sensor also supports advanced features such as INT output for interrupt-driven detection and XSHUT pin to use multiple modules on one I²C line.
Applications:
- Obstacle detection in robots and drones
- Object distance measurement in mobile systems
- Proximity sensing in household appliances
- Gesture recognition on related equipment
