STMicroelectronics VL6180-SATEL Breakout Board
STMicroelectronics VL6180-SATEL Breakout Board is a hardware add-on for the X-NUCLEO-6180A1 expansion board, populated with the VL6180 proximity sensor. Designers can connect up to three VL6180-SATEL boards to the X-NUCLEO-6180A1 board, enabling multi-sensor applications. Thanks to its 2.8V regulator, the VL6180-SATEL board can be used in any application with a 3.3V to 10V supply. STMicroelectronics VL6180-SATEL Breakout Board is scored so developers can break off the mini PCB for use in a 2.8V supply application using flying leads. This design construction and small form factor also make it easier to integrate into development and evaluation devices.
