VCNL4200 I2C Proximity Detection Module Surrounding Light Sensing 16-Bit Resolution, Selectable Measurement Settings, Light-Responsive Display and Lighting Control Projects

Configurable Sensing Controls: Adjust integration time, IRED power, duty cycle, repeated sampling settings, and sunlight interference controls to shape detection behavior for the intended setup Use the module for robot obstacle detection, approach-based wake functions, light-responsive display or lighting control, and parking-space occupancy detection The module provides 12-bit proximity resolution and 16-bit light resolution, with a practical detection span of 50-100cm and reduced accuracy at longer distances Package Includes 1 VCNL4200 module and 1 breakaway header; STEMMA QT and Qwiic connectors connector-based hookup, while the loose header requires soldering Combined Detection Functions: Integrated proximity and surrounding light sensing supports object approach detection and light-responsive behavior through a single I2C-connected board
