Mikroelektronika MIKROE-3103 Light Ranger 3 Click Board, RFD77402 ToF Sensor, 2000mm Range, I2C

Technical description of the product (MIKROE-3103):

The Light Ranger 3 click board MIKROE-3103 is an accurate distance measurement module based on a ToF (Time of Flight) measurement principle. The Simblee™ enabled RFD77402 rangefinder module from RF Digital is a complete measurement stack on the chip. It is surprisingly easy to work with, as this highly integrated range finder module exposes only the I2C interface and INT pin to the host controller. It features the VCSEL, a Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser, used to emit a narrow band of a harmless modulated light beam in the IR range (850 nm), and a receive sensor, which can detect the reflected light. It can measure distances up to 2000 mm, with up to 10% accuracy. The device is rated Class 1 LASER product, operating in the IR (invisible) spectrum range. Type: Optical. Applications: Can be used for counting dimensions of goods in industry, controlling a safety area, building contactless digital measurement tools, 3D visual guidance applications in robotics for moving through obstacles, and similar. On-board modules: Simblee™ enabled RFD77402 ToF sensor module, from RF Digital. Key Features: Contactless measurement up to 2000 mm, with up to 10% accuracy. The device is rated Class 1 laser product, operating in the IR (invisible) spectrum range. Integrated sections allow a minimum number of external components to be used. Interface: I2C. Input Voltage: 3.3V. Click board size: S (28.6 x 25.4 mm).
