    AN-000260 1 SCOPE AND PURPOSE This document details the specification, programming, and operation of an EV_MOD_CH101-01-02 (also referred to as the EV_MOD_CH101 in the remainder of this document) ultrasonic sensor evaluation module. The module board incorporates a CH101 Ultrasonic Sensor device with an 45° field-of-view acoustic housing assembly, a capacitor and an FPC/FFC connector. This evaluation module can perform pitch-catch and pulse-echo range-finding at distances from 4 cm to 1.2m.

    AN-000260 5 APPLICATIONS OBJECT DETECTION Detecting the presence of objects or people can be optimized via software by setting the sensor’s full-scale range (FSR). The user may set the maximum distance at which the sensor will detect an object. FSR values refer to the one-way distance to a detected object.
  • Page 9: Beam Pattern

    AN-000260 Beam Pattern Beam-pattern plots of the EV_MOD_CH101-01-02 with a 45° FoV acoustic housing module are shown in Figure 5-3. This beam- pattern was measured by placing a 1m flat target at a 30 cm distance from the EV_MOD_CH101 module and recording the ToF amplitude as the sensor is rotated 180°.
