TDK InvenSense ICU-20201 Time-of-Flight (ToF) Range Sensor

TDK InvenSense ICU-20201 Time-of-Flight (ToF) Range Sensor is a miniature, ultra-low power, and long-range ultrasonic sensor based on Chirp’s patented MEMS technology. This sensor integrates an 85kHz Piezoelectric Micromachined Ultrasonic Transducer (PMUT) with a 2nd generation ultra-low power System on Chip (SoC) in a reflowable package. The ICU-20201 sensor offers accurate range measurements to targets at distances up to 5m. This sensor can operate in any lighting condition, including full sunlight to complete darkness. The ICU-20201 sensor features a customizable Field-Of-View (FOV) up to 180°. This sensor also features multi-object detection, a single sound port for receiving and transmitting, flexible 1.71V to 3.63V I/O voltage, and a 13MHz SPI interface.
