8 m time-of-flight ranging with I²C interface
The STMicroelectronics VL53L1CBV0FY/1 is a FlightSense™ time-of-flight (ToF) sensor that measures distance up to 8 m (314.96 in) using a VCSEL emitter and SPAD detector array. The I²C output connects directly to a host microcontroller's bus — no external ADC or timing logic needed.
Active lifecycle — no end-of-life risk
STMicroelectronics lists the VL53L1CBV0FY/1 as Active.
Package and supply integration
The operating temperature range of -20°C to 85°C (TA) covers indoor and most outdoor enclosures — not extended for engine-bay or direct-sun exposure, but adequate for consumer, industrial, and commercial ranging applications.
