The TOF050C is suited for shorter-range detection, the TOF200C for mid-range, and the TOF400C for longer-range applications. Select the variant that best matches your project's distance measurement requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: What microcontrollers is this ToF ranging module compatible with?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: This Time of Flight module uses the standard IIC (I²C) communication protocol, making it compatible with a wide range of popular microcontrollers and development boards including Arduino, ESP32, ESP8266, Raspberry Pi, and STM32, among others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Can this ToF module be used outdoors?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: Yes, the TOF050C\/TOF200C\/TOF400C ranging modules support an operating temperature range of -20°C to 70°C, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor automation or industrial applications. However, direct exposure to harsh weather conditions should be avoided unless the module is properly enclosed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eQ: Does the module require any external power supply?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA: The module operates on 3V to 5V DC and draws approximately 40mA. It is powered directly via your microcontroller or project board — no separate power supply is required. No batteries are included or needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- production-packaging-notice --\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduction \u0026amp; Packaging Notice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo maintain high stock availability and fast shipping times, our items are sourced from multiple verified manufacturing facilities.
