About this part
The TFmini-S is a small single-point time-of-flight lidar that measures the distance to whatever is straight in front of it, from 0.1m out to 12m. It works with Arduino and Pixhawk setups and suits drones and robots that need a narrow, precise distance reading rather than a wide sweep.
- Range: 0.1 to 12m, or up to 5m on targets with 10% reflectivity
- Accuracy: 1% under 6m and 2% from 6 to 12m, with 5mm resolution
- Output: UART (115200 baud) or I2C, switchable
- Update rate: 100Hz by default, adjustable from 1 to 1000Hz
- Optics and power: 850nm VCSEL light source, 2° field of view, 4.5-6V supply, 0.12W average
- Size and weight: 42 x 15 x 16mm, 6.1g
Anything closer than 0.1m sits in its blind zone and won't give a reliable reading, so plan for that gap when you mount it.

New Upgrade TFmini-S Lidar Range Finder Sensor Module 0.1-12m TOF Single Point Micro Ranging for Arduino Pixhawk Drone UART & IIC 0.1-12m TFmini-S is upgrade version of TFmini. Compare with TFmini, TFmini-S has these advantages : ①.The blind zone of it is reduced from 30cm to 10cm. ②.Interface supports UART and I2C switching at any time. ③.Light source is VCSEL. ④.FOV is better. TFmini-S is 2°(TFmini is 2.3°). ⑤Same Price with better performance. Upgrade Overview TFmini-S is a single-point ranging Lidar based on TFmini upgrade. The blind zone of it is reduced from 30cm to 10cm, the outdoor ranging performance is further improved, the distance range is not disturbed by ambient light, which can be consistent with the indoor range, and the accuracy is further optimized. The error performance at 10% reflectivity approaches the background of 90% reflectivity, and the interface supports UART and I2C switching at any time. Specification: Operating Range : 0.1-12m Maximum operating range at 10% reflectivity : 5m Applicable voltage range : 4.5-6V Average power consumption : 0.12W FOV : 2° Communication interface : UART/I2C Electromagnetic Compatibility(EMC):EN 55032 Class B Baud rate:115200 Data bit:8 Stop bit:1 Parity bit:0 Minimum resolution ratio : 5mm Frequency: 100Hz(1-1000Hz adjustable) Light source:VCSEL Wavelength:850nm Operating temperature : 20-60C Light sensitivity : 70,000lux Accuracy : 1% (less than 6m), 2% (6m-12m) Size : 42mm • 15mm • 16mm Weight : 6.1g Certification:CE,FCC,ROHS Major Applications: Traffic Monitoring Obstacle detection Level measurement Smart device Security and obstacle avoidance Drone altitude holding and terrain following Machine control and safety sensors Distance measuring instrument Technical Specifications and Parameters Product Appearance and Structure Configurable parameters Connection:
