Introduction
The X-NUCLEO-53L8A1 is an expansion board for any STM32 Nucleo development board equipped with the Arduino R3
connectors. It provides a complete evaluation kit that allows you to learn, evaluate, and develop applications based on the
VL53L8 series Time-of-Flight sensors.
The expansion board is delivered with a cover glass holder in which you can fit three different spacers of 0.25, 0.5, and 1 mm
height below the cover glass to simulate various air gaps. A small oval cover glass fitting the sensor is included.
Several ST expansion boards can be stacked through the Arduino connectors, which allow, for example, the development of
VL53L8 applications with Bluetooth or Wi-Fi interfaces.
