Product description: Digital distance sensor 130 cm PWM - Pololu 4071

Adistancesensor board based onLidartechnology. The sensor detects objectsup to 130cm and is poweredfrom 3 V to 5.5 V. It is equipped with one digital PWM output whose signal is similar to the servo control signal. A digital microcontroller pin can be used to measure the duration of each high pulse, which encodes the measured distance. Short range Lidar technology is used toaccurately measurethe time it takes for the emitted pulses of eye-safe infrared light to reach the nearest object and be reflected back. As long as the sensor is operating, it takes continuous distance measurements and encodes the ranges as high pulse widths, which can then be synchronized by the microcontroller using a single digital input. A maximum range of 130 cm is only achievable for high reflectance targets in good environmental conditions. Targets with lower reflectivity or poor environmental conditions reduce the maximum range.

The manufacturer has also preparedsampleprogramcodesfor Arduino andBBC micro:bit.

Using the distance sensor

The module has 3 leads:VIN, GND and OUT,in the form of holes with a 2.54 mm raster, with solderablegoldpin connectors(not included). VIN pin is used to power the modulefrom 3V to 5.5V, GND is a ground pin (0V). Digital pulses are sent to OUT pin. The low level of the pulses is 0 V and the high level is the voltage value from VIN. AredLEDalso lights up when an object is detected, andit lights up brighter when the object is closer to the sensor.There is also an ENABLE pin on the board that can be set low to put it into a low power state, which consumes about 0.4 mA of current. The ENABLE pin is pulled up to VIN by default.

There is a protective film on the sensor that must be removed before working with the module.

Jumper settings on the sensor module

The board contains four surface mount configuration jumpers (4321) that determine its operating modes. Different versions of Pololu sensors have the jumpers set appropriately as 0 Ω resistors. The resistors can be soldered out or bridges can be added to convert one version of the sensor into another. This sensor can be converted to any other version of irs17a according to the table below.

Czujnik Pololu vs SharpComparison of Pololu and Sharp sensors.

Comparison with Sharp sensor

The Pololu sensor modules have the sameshape and pin-outsasthe Sharp modules. They are available with the same and larger sensing ranges, which means that they can be usedinterchangeably. The sensors on the newer Pololu devices aremuch thinnerthan the Sharp modules, so the zero point is about 7mm closer to the board, and the beam angle on the newer devices is wider.
