P-NUCLEO-53L7A1
Overview
The P-NUCLEO-53L7A1 is a complete evaluation kit designed to demonstrate the capabilities of the VL53L7CX multizone Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensor. It pairs the high-performance 3D ToF sensor expansion board with an NUCLEO-F401RE development board, providing a ready-to-use platform for long-range ranging and gesture recognition. This kit enables developers to evaluate 8x8 multizone ranging with a 60-degree square field of view.
Why Choose This Part
The kit features a wide 90-degree diagonal field of view and supports multizone ranging up to 8x8 zones, allowing for detailed spatial awareness. By including the STM32F401RE MCU, it provides sufficient processing power for the VL53L7CX driver while remaining compatible with the Arduino Uno V3 connectivity standard for further expansion.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Start by downloading the STSW-IMG037 software package, which includes a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for immediate sensor visualization. For custom firmware development, use the X-CUBE-TOF1 expansion pack for STM32Cube, which provides necessary drivers and example code for the VL53L7CX sensor. Hardware connections are simplified via the Arduino-compatible headers on the Nucleo board.
