Hello all, 

   I want to modify the sensor i2c address. So, i can use more than 1 VL53L0X Sensors.

I see AN4846. On page 5/7 it mentioned for API integration guide which is UM2039. In API guide (UM2039), page 20/26 6.6 mentioned for I2C address. 

Question is: How to program the VL53L0X ?

                    What development board, i have to purchase ? Eventually, i want to use multiple VL53L0X with non-stm processor. 

Thank You in advance !

Swapneel

    Hello Swapneel,

    The VL53L0X is programmed by its API (simple set of C functions).

    The API (stsw-img005) can be downloaded from here:

    https://my.st.com/content/my_st_com/en/products/embedded-software/proximity-sensors-software/stsw-img005.html

     

    The P-Nucleo-53L0A1 would be a good starter kit for you. 

    You can control up to 3 ToF sensors with this kit.

    The code source example (X-CUBE-53L0A1) can be downloaded here:

    https://my.st.com/content/my_st_com/en/products/ecosystems/stm32-open-development-environment/stm32cube-expansion-software/stm32-ode-sense-sw/x-cube-53l0a1.html

     

    Thanks

    Julien
