3.7 Time of Flight Sensor
The VL53L1CBV0FY Time-of-Flight sensor (U4) adds accurate and low power ranging capabilities to the Arduino®
Nicla Vision. The invisible near-infrared VCSEL laser (including the analog driver) is encapsulated with receiving
optics in an all-in-one small module below the camera.
3.8 Digital Microphones
The MP34DT05 digital MEMS microphone is omnidirectional and operates via a capacitive sensing element with a
high (64 dB) signal-to-noise ratio. The sensing element, capable of detecting acoustic waves, is manufactured using
a specialized silicon micromachining process dedicated to producing audio sensors (U6).
3.9 Power Tree
Nicla Vision Power Tree
Input voltage can be provided to the Nicla Vision through the USB connector (J7), the ESLOV connector (J5), the
battery connector (J4) or the headers. The USB connector is prioritized over the ESLOV connector, both of which are
prioritized over the battery connector and header. Reverse polarity protection for the USB connector (J7) and the
ESLOV connector (J5) is provided by ideal diodes U2 and U7 respectively. Input voltage from the battery does NOT
have reverse polarity protection and the user is responsible for respecting the polarity.
