SmartElex VCNL4040 Proximity Sensor Breakout -20cm The SmartElex VCNL4040 Proximity Sensor Breakout –20 cm is a compact digital Proximity Sensor designed for precise IR-based object detection and ambient light measurement. Powered by the VCNL4040, this IR Proximity Sensor can qualitatively detect objects up to 20 cm with no dead zone, reading accurately right up to the sensor face. Along with proximity sensing, the integrated ambient light sensor makes it suitable for applications like automatic dispensers, faucets, touchless interfaces, and light-aware projects. With solder-free connectivity and optional 0.1″ pins for breadboards, it’s an easy-to-use, reliable solution for modern electronics, IoT, and DIY systems. Note: The I2C address of the VCNL4040 is 0x60, which is hardware specified. A multiplexer/Mux is required to interface with numerous VCNL4040 sensors via a single bus. Features: Qualitative detection range: 20 cm. Integrated modules: infrared emitter (IRED), ambient light. Sensor (ALS), proximity sensor (PS) Operates ALS and PS in parallel. No Dead Zone. Operating voltage: 3.3 volts. I2C Address: 0x60.
- Digital Proximity Sensor based on the VCNL4040 for accurate object detection up to 20 cm
- Works as an IR Proximity Sensor with no dead zone, even at very close range
- Built-in ambient light sensor for reliable light level measurement
- Detects presence and relative distance (closer or farther than the last reading)
- No soldering required; also includes 0.1″ header pins for breadboard use
- Ideal replacement for bulky analog Sharp proximity sensors
