Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for the PONO TSD50 sensor?

The PONO TSD50 operates on a wide DC voltage range from 3.3V to 5V. This makes it directly compatible with common microcontroller logic levels found on platforms like Arduino, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi without requiring an additional level shifter.

What communication protocols does this LiDAR module support?

The module supports both UART (serial) and I2C communication interfaces. You can select the desired protocol via configuration, providing flexibility for integration into various system architectures, from simple serial logging to multi-device I2C bus networks.

How accurate is the TSD50, and does accuracy change with distance?

Accuracy is ±5 centimeters for measurements under 5 meters. For distances of 5 meters and greater, the accuracy is ±1% of the measured distance. The sensor also offers a high resolution of 1 millimeter.

Can this sensor be used outdoors in bright sunlight?

Yes, the TSD50 is designed with high ambient light immunity, capable of operating reliably in conditions up to 100,000 Lux. Its 905nm laser and advanced DTOF signal processing allow for stable performance in challenging outdoor environments like direct sunlight.

What is the field of view (FOV) and how does it affect measurement?

The sensor has a very narrow field of view of 1.7 degrees. This tight beam angle minimizes interference from objects outside the direct line of sight, providing highly precise and focused distance readings ideal for targeting specific points or tracking narrow objects.
