CH201 is a miniature, ultra-low power, long-range ultrasonic Time-of-Flight (ToF) range sensor. Based on Chirp’s patented MEMS technology, the CH201 is a system-in-package that integrates a PMUT (Piezoelectric Micromachined Ultrasonic Transducer) together with an ultra-low power SoC (System on Chip) in a miniature, reflowable package. The SoC runs Chirp’s advanced ultrasonic DSP algorithms and includes an integrated microcontroller that provides digital range readings over I2C.
Complementing Chirp’s CH101 ultrasonic ToF sensor product, CH201 provides accurate range measurements to targets at distances up to 5m. Based on ultrasonic pulse-echo measurements, the sensor works in any lighting condition, including full sunlight, and provides millimeter-accurate range measurements independent of the target’s color and optical transparency. The sensor’s Field-Of-View (FOV) can be customized and enables simultaneous range measurements to multiple objects in the FOV. Many algorithms can further process the range information for a variety of usage cases in a wide range of applications.
