ST X-NUCLEO-53L8A1 - STM32 Cube Software Overview; X-CUBE-TOF1 Software Description; Key Features of X-CUBE-TOF1

• The X-CUBE-TOF1 software package is a STM32Cube
expansion for the expansion boards of the Time-of-
Flight product family (including the X-NUCLEO-53L8A1)
for STM32. The source code is based on STM32Cube
to ease portability and code sharing across different
STM32 MCU families. A sample implementation is
available for the STM32 Nucleo ranging sensor
expansion board (X-NUCLEO-53L8A1) plugged on top
of an STM32 Nucleo development board (NUCLEO-
F401RE or NUCLEO-L476RG).
