Functional Description
The source states that the sensor uses the direct time-of-flight principle and transmits distance information through UART.
The source front page reports a 1 mm resolution; this is not an accuracy value.
The formal specification states support for a low-power mode.
Electrical Interface Definition
Signal names and directions are transcribed from the model source.
| Pin | Signal | Source-stated function |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | TX | Host RX |
| 2 | RX | Host TX |
| 3 | GND | External power negative |
| 4 | 5V | External power positive |

Direct Time-of-Flight Ranging
The LRF10VB model document identifies the product as direct time of flight (DToF). It determines distance from the delay between an emitted optical pulse and the accepted return.
Real performance also depends on target reflectivity and area, incidence angle, atmospheric attenuation, receiver aperture, background light, detector response, timing thresholds and contamination of the optical path.

These are traceable design inputs, not unsupported superlatives or guaranteed field outcomes.

Source-stated application context
Application labels indicate where the source proposes evaluation; they do not prove fitness without system testing.
- Camera focusing
- Squat detection
- Security monitoring
Confirm before selection
- Define target size, reflectivity, incidence angle and required detection probability.
- Reproduce sunlight, visibility, weather and optical-window conditions in acceptance testing.
- Verify voltage tolerance, peak current, grounding, interface levels, baud rate and connector revision.
- Separate accuracy, repeatability and displayed resolution in host requirements.
- Confirm mounting datum, boresight, field of view, enclosure sealing and thermal path.
- Assess accessible emission and labeling again after integration into the finished equipment.
Questions to resolve before design release
Does the maximum stated range apply to every target?
No. Use the reflectivity and environmental conditions shown beside the range row. Smaller, darker, oblique or partially obscured targets and degraded visibility can reduce received signal.
Are resolution, repeatability and accuracy interchangeable?
No. Resolution is the reporting increment, repeatability describes variation under repeated conditions, and accuracy describes closeness to the reference distance under the stated test method.
Is the finished product automatically Class 1?
No. A module-level source statement does not replace the accessible-emission and failure-condition assessment of the finished equipment, its window, controls, service access and labeling.
Which documents control wiring and interface release?
The ordered connector drawing, pin definition and approved interface document control the design.
