Proximity 8 click is a close-range proximity sensing Click board™, equipped with the VCNL36687S, a very accurate and power-efficient proximity sensor (PS) with VCSEL. A Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Laser (VCSEL) is used in conjunction with the advanced analog and digital front end circuits, which allow minimal power consumption and simplified operation. The sensor can be triggered by a single command over the I2C interface. An advanced interrupt engine allows reliable MCU interrupt triggering, featuring the programmable persistence which helps to avoid false reporting.
Proximity 8 click is supported by a mikroSDK compliant library, which includes functions that simplify software development. This Click board™ comes as a fully tested product, ready to be used on a system equipped with the mikroBUS™ socket.
