TDK Corporation’s announces the immediate worldwide availability of the Chirp CH-101 MEMS-based ultrasonic Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensor. This ToF sensor utilizes a tiny ultrasonic transducer chip to send out a pulse of ultrasound and then listen for echoes returning from targets in the sensor’s field-of-view. By calculating the ToF, the sensor can determine the location of […]
Arduino distance meter with Ultrasonic Sensor (HC SR04) and Nokia 5110 LCD display
https://www.electronics-lab.com/arduino-distance-meter-ultrasonic-sensor-hc-sr04-nokia-5110-lcd-display/
Measuring distance is so important in today’s world that things like driverless cars will be impossible without it, that description is probably enough to describe how important knowing the distance between two objects can be. For that reason, today we will be building a distance meter using the Arduino and the HC-SR04 ultrasonic sensor. The […]
Chirp Microsystem Made The Smallest And Most Accurate Ultrasonic Time-of-Flight Sensors
https://www.electronics-lab.com/70595-2/
Recently Californian startup Chirp Microsystems officially announced two discrete ultrasonic Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensors, the CH-101 and CH-201, with maximum sensing ranges of 1m and 5m, respectively. Both chips have a 3.5×3.5mm package and they are powered by same ASIC or application-specific integrated circuit for signal processing. To achieve different sensing ranges, the Piezoelectric Micro-machined Ultrasonic Transducers (PMUT), the […]
