Compare with TFmini,TFmini-S has these advantages : ①.The blind zone of it is reduced from 30cm to 10cm . ②.Interface supports UART and I2C switching at any time. ③.Light source is VCSEL. ④.FOV is better. TFmini-S is 2°(TFmini is 2.3°). ⑤Same Price with better performance. Upgrade Overview TFmini-S is a single-point ranging Lidar based on TFmini upgrade. The blind zone of it is reduced from 30cm to 10cm, the outdoor ranging performance is further improved, the distance range is not disturbed by ambient light, which can be consistent with the indoor range, and the accuracy is further optimized. The error performance at 10% reflectivity approaches the background of 90% reflectivity, and the interface supports UART and I2C switching at any time. Features: Operating Range : 0.1-12m Maximum operating range at 10% reflectivity : 5m Applicable voltage range : 4.5-6V Average power consumption : 0.12W FOV : 2° Communication interface : UART/I2C Electromagnetic Compatibility(EMC):EN 55032 Class B Baud rate:115200 Data bit:8 Stop bit:1 Parity bit:0 Minimum resolution ratio : 5mm Frequency: 100Hz(1-1000Hz adjustable) Light source:VCSEL Wavelength:850nm Operating temperature : 20-60C Light sensitivity : 70,000lux Accuracy : 1% (less than 6m), 2% (6m-12m) Size : 42mm * 15mm * 16mm Weight : 6.1g Certification:CE,FCC,ROHS Major Applications: Traffic Monitoring Obstacle detection Level measurement Smart device Security and obstacle avoidance Drone altitude holding and terrain following Machine control and safety sensors Distance measuring ## Features - ✨TFmini-S is the improved version of TFmini.
