View and Edit Project In Cirkit Designer
Circuit Documentation
Summary
This circuit integrates an A9G GSM/GPRS+GPS/BDS module with an Arduino UNO microcontroller and two VL53L1X time-of-flight distance sensors. The A9G module is connected to the Arduino UNO for serial communication and power. Both VL53L1X sensors are connected in parallel to the I2C bus of the Arduino UNO and have individual shutdown pins controlled by the Arduino for selective activation.
