## Description

This TOF laser ranging module uses time-of-flight measurement with an embedded MCU and ranging algorithm to measure distance over long ranges with ±3cm typical accuracy. TOF Laser Range Sensor (D) with a 40m measuring range. It supports UART, I2C or complementary I/O level output for use with microcontrollers, robots and automation systems.An ultra-narrow field of view helps improve measuring distance and light interference tolerance, with ambient light tolerance up to 100K LUX for indoor or outdoor use.Features:Cost effective solution: Long range low cost ranging module.Long range low cost ranging module: Designed for long range distance measurement.High stability, high accuracy, high sensitivity ranging: Supports stable, accurate and sensitive ranging.TOF laser range sensor: Time-of-flight laser range sensor, long range low cost ranging module.Communication support: UART / I2C / IO Communication Support.UART Mode: Supports Active Query Output.I2C Mode: Up To 8x Cascades.I/O Mode: Unable To Output Distance Parameter.Specifications:Version option - TOF Laser Range Sensor (C): 25m measuring rangeVersion option - TOF Laser Range Sensor (D): 40m measuring rangeModel: TOF Laser Range Sensor (C); TOF Laser Range Sensor (D)Typical measuring range - TOF Laser Range Sensor (C): 0.05 ~ 25.0mTypical measuring range - TOF Laser Range Sensor (D): 0.05m ~ 40.0mTypical measuring accuracy - TOF Laser Range Sensor (C): 0.05 ~ 25m ±3cmTypical measuring accuracy - TOF Laser Range Sensor (D): 0.05m ~ 40m ±3cmWavelength: 905nmField of view (FOV): 1° ~ 2°Communication interface - UART: Default: UART (3.3V TTL signal level)Communication interface - I2C: I2C (cascading support, the slave address is 0x08+module ID)Communication interface - I/O: complementary I/O level output (distance parameter is not available in this mode)Baudrate - UART: 4.8Kbps ~ 3000Kbps (921.6Kbps by default)Baudrate - I2C: up to 400KbpsPower supply: 4.3 ~ 5.2VPower consumption: 250mW (UART active output, 5.0V power supply, 50mA current)Weight: 7.5gOperating temperature: -10°C ~ 60°CDimensions: 22.7mm × 28mm × 13.6mm (L × W × H)Ambient light tolerance: up to 100K LUXA practical ranging sensor for robots, distance measurement rigs, obstacle avoidance, route planning, ceiling detection and stacking detection.
