Overview

The X-NUCLEO-53L0A1 expansion board features the VL53L0X ranging and gesture
recognition sensor, based on ST's FlightSense™, Time-of-Flight technology.
It is compatible with the STM32 Nucleo board family, and with the Arduino UNO R3
connector layout.
Several ST expansion boards can be superposed through the Arduino connectors, which
allows, for example, to develop VL53L0X applications with Bluetooth or Wi-Fi interface.
The X-NUCLEO-53L0A1 expansion board is delivered with:
•
Three spacers of 0.25, 0.5 and 1 mm height, used to simulate different airgap between
the VL53L0X and the cover glass
•
A cover glass to simulate the integration of the VL53L0X into the customer's final
product.
•
Two VL53L0X satellites, which can be plugged onto the X-NUCLEO-53L0A1 expansion
board or connected through flying wires to the X-NUCLEO-53L0A1 expansion board.
•
Two 10 pin connectors to enable customer to connect the two satellites onto the
X-NUCLEO-53L0A1 expansion board.
Note: The VL53L0X is delivered with a liner, in order to prevent potential foreign material to
penetrate inside the modules holes during assembly process. It must be removed at the
latest possible step during final assembly, and anyway before module calibration.
