Description

The distance sensor breakout Adafruit TMF8806 uses the TMF8806 device from ams OSRAM for direct Time of Flight distance measurement. The device measures the return time of a short reflected light pulse and calculates distance using SPAD detection and TDC processing. In its standard optical configuration it provides measurements from approximately 10mm to 5m, making it suitable for robotics, presence detection, collision avoidance and interactive systems.

The TMF8806 uses a 940nm VCSEL light source meeting Class 1 laser safety requirements. It supports a short-range mode up to 200mm, a 2.5m mode and a 5m mode. Measurement timing in 5m mode can be approximately 33–66ms depending on the configured iteration count. An ultra-low-power operating mode is also available for battery-powered applications.

Integrated histogram processing allows the closest target distance to be reported in 1mm steps. The device also provides cover-glass contamination compensation, optical crosstalk correction and ambient-light rejection. The field of view depends on the operating mode and optical configuration, with approximately 30° in long-range mode using the default optical setup.

Communication is provided through I2C with a default address of 0x41 and bus speeds up to 1MHz. The Adafruit breakout includes voltage regulation and logic-level shifting for use with 3.3V and 5V systems. Two STEMMA QT / Qwiic connectors allow solderless I2C connection.

The module measures approximately 25.5 × 17.7 × 4.8mm and weighs approximately 1.7g. Arduino and CircuitPython/Python libraries and examples are available from Adafruit.
