Fermion: TMF8801 ToF Distance Ranging Sensor (20-2500mm) (Breakout, I2C)

The Fermion TMF8801 is a compact Time-of-Flight (ToF) distance ranging sensor breakout designed for precise short-to-medium range measurements. It provides reliable obstacle detection and distance tracking for robotics hobbyists, makers, and electronics students.

Wide ranging measurement span

The sensor delivers accurate distance measurements across a detection range of 20 mm to 2500 mm. Its Time-of-Flight technology enables dependable proximity sensing for navigation and object detection.

Consistent all-lighting performance

Engineered to maintain stable sensing capabilities in both bright sunlight and total darkness. This ensures steady data collection regardless of ambient environmental lighting conditions.

Focused field of illumination

A 21 degree field of illumination provides targeted spatial detection. This optical angle allows for focused target tracking without interference from wide peripheral obstacles.

Standard I2C interface

Equipped with an I2C communication interface for simple integration with microcontrollers and development boards. The breakout form factor allows for quick wiring and prototyping.
