MIKROE-4870

MIKROE-4870 is an Ultrasonic 3 Click compact add-on board designed for distance measurement, presence detection, and object tracking in short- to mid-range embedded applications. It is based on the ICU-10201, a high-performance ultrasonic ToF transceiver from TDK InvenSense built on Chirp’s patented MEMS technology that integrates a 175kHz PMUT with a second-generation ultra-low-power SoC. This sensor supports an operating range from 10cm up to 1.2m, detects moving objects closer than 10cm, enables simultaneous ranging to multiple objects within a customizable field of view of up to 180°, and operates reliably in all lighting conditions while remaining insensitive to object colour and capable of detecting transparent surfaces such as glass. It communicates with the host MCU over an SPI interface up to 13MHz, and supports the MIKROE Click Snap feature for flexible integration. It is ideal for robotic vacuum navigation, cliff and floor detection applications.
