KAmodVL6180X

Description

KAmodVL6180X is a module that allows to measure light intensity (ALS), distance to the object and recognition of gesture. It has an embedded voltage regulator and voltage level translators on signal lines. Thanks to this can be used in systems with 2.8V – 5.5V power supply voltage.
