The dToF device is based on\nSingle Photon Avalanche Photodiode (SPAD), time-to-digital converter (TDC) and\nhistogram technology to achieve a 5000mm detection range. Due to its lens on\nthe SPAD, it supports 3x3 multizone output data and a very wide, dynamically\nadjustable field of view. A multi-lens-array (MLA) inside the package above\nthe VCSEL widens up the FoI (field of illumination). All processing of the raw\ndata is performed on-chip and the TMF8820 provides distance information\ntogether with confidence values on its I2C interface. The high performance on-\nchip optical filter blocks most of the ambient light, and enables distance\nmeasurements in dark and sunlight environments.To make it even easier to get\nyour readings, all communication is enacted exclusively via I2C, utilizing our\nhandy Qwiic system so no soldering is required to connect it to the rest of\nyour system. However, we still have broken out 0.1”-spaced pins in case you\nprefer to use a breadboard. The TMF8820 offers two configurable GPIO pins and\none enable (EN) pin, which are broken out as PTH pads. The board also includes\na power LED and I2C pull-up resistors, each configurable via jumpers. This\nversion has a footprint that uses the Qwiic Standard size (1.0in. x\n1.0in.).This sensor is great for projects such as distance measurement for\ncamera autofocus - Laser Detect Autofocus - LDAF (mobile phone), presence\ndetection (computing and communication), object detection and collision\navoidance (robotics), and light curtain (industrial).Note: CLASS 1 LASER\nPRODUCT CLASSIFIED IEC 60825-1 2014.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe SparkFun Qwiic dToF TMF8820 Imager is a direct time-of-flight (dToF) sensor that includes a single modular package with an associated Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Laser (VCSEL) from AMS.
