How to setup and run the VL53L5CX-SATEL using an STM32 Nucleo64 board
Introduction
The purpose of this document is to describe how to set up and run the VL53L5CX-SATEL directly connected to an
STM32 Nucleo64 board.
The VL53L5CX-SATEL breakout boards can be used for easy integration into customer devices.
The PCB section supporting the VL53L5CX module is perforated so that developers can break off the mini PCB for use in
a 3.3 V supply application using flying wires. This makes it easier to integrate the VL53L5CX-SATEL breakout boards into
development and evaluation devices due to their small size.
The VL53L5CX-SATEL is designed to connect remotely the VL53L5CX sensor to any type of electronic controller. To quick
start such application, this document explains where to connect this board to the
NUCLEO-F401RE
board, where to find the
dedicated code example, and how to make it operate.

A VL53L5CX-SATEL board project for NUCLEO-F4101RE is available in the directory tree as shown in the following figure. The difference between ST common Expansion board X-NUCLEO-53L5A1 and this board is the classification name. This project is part of the “CUSTOM” directory. - Page 6 This project embeds a bidirectional communication by UART. By default, some options can be triggered like the resolution for example by typing “r”. It is switched to 8x8 mode as shown in Figure 5. Display rendering for 8x8 mode. Figure 5.
