STMicroelectronics X-NUCLEO-53L8A1 Sensor Expansion Board

STMicroelectronics X-NUCLEO-53L8A1 Sensor Expansion Board is an expansion board for any STM32 Nucleo board equipped with Arduino R3 connectors. It provides a complete evaluation kit that allows the user to learn, evaluate, and develop applications based on the VL53L8 series Time-of-Flight sensors.

The STMicroelectronics X-NUCLEO-53L8A1 expansion board is delivered with a cover glass holder. The user can fit three spacers of 0.25, 0.5, and 1mm height below the cover glass to simulate air gaps. Several ST expansion boards can be stacked through the Arduino® connectors, which allow, for example, the development of VL53L8 series ToF applications with Bluetooth® Low Energy or Wi-Fi® interfaces.
