VL53L1CB single shot fail

Hello,

I'm using a VL53L1CB with X-CUBE-TOF1 but when i try to use the blocking one shot mode, i always get 0 target.

If i use the blocking continuous mode, the first measure will always return 0 target and only the second measure will return a target.

The workaround is not ideal because it use 3 times more energy than the failing one shot (~1.8mC vs ~0.6mC).

Is there something special to do to make the one shot mode working correctly ?

Hello,

Thank you for providing me via email a fix for the X-CUBE-TOF1 3.3.0. The first measure is now working.

Best regards,

Nicolas
