VL6180X expansion board

The board allows the user to test the VL6180X functionality, to program it and to help

understanding how to develop an application using VL6180X. It integrates:

•

a 4-Digit display to render either the range value in mm or the ambient light value in

Lux.

•

a switch to select the value type to be displayed.

•

a 2.8V regulator to supply the VL6180X.

•

two level shifters to adapt the I/O level to the micro controller main board.

•

the necessary connectivity for the application.

It is required to program the NUCLEO-L053R8 board in order to control the VL6180X

expansion board. For the NUCLEO-L053R8 board, the required software suite is available

STSW-LINK008, STSW-LINK7 and the X-CUBE-6180XA1.

The VL6180X expansion board and the NUCLEO-L053R8 board are connected through

Arduino compatible connectors CN5, CN6, CN8 and CN9 as shown in Figure 1 and

described in Table 2 and Table 3.

The Arduino connectors on NUCLEO-L053R8 board support Arduino Uno Revision 3.
