Laser consideration

The VL6180X contains a laser emitter and corresponding drive circuitry. The laser output is

designed to remain within Class 1 laser safety limits under all reasonably foreseeable

conditions including single faults in compliance with IEC 60825-1:2007. The laser output will

remain within Class 1 limits as long as the STMicroelectronics recommended device

settings are used and the operating conditions specified in the datasheet are respected. The

laser output power must not be increased by any means and no optics should be used with

the intention of focusing the laser beam.
