AFBR-S50 Time-of-Flight (ToF) Sensor Family Application Note
2.4.1 Adapter Board for the AFBR-S50-RD
The AFBR-S50-RD has a single-row 11-pin connector and, therefore, has limited connectivity capabilities. To cope with this
issue and expand the connectivity, Broadcom offers an additional adapter board. The idea behind the AFBR-S50-RD
adapter board is to cover as many different interfaces as possible, offering a unified connectivity solution for the
AFBR-S50-RD. Hardware revisions of the adapter board are planned for the future, bringing even more connectivity
features.
The AFBR-S50-RD adapter board incorporates several header connectors. Two Arduino/FRDM-KL46Z-compatible
connectors offer I2C, SPI, and UART interfaces for communication with connected development boards, while the standard
10-pin JTAG/SWD connector allows for easy programming and debugging. The AFBR-S50-RD adapter board simplifies
development by offering simplified connectivity to many different development boards and tools, which can be used to
evaluate the AFBR-S50-RD and the ToF sensor quickly and easily.
