Introduction

TFA300‑L Long‑Range High‑Frequency LiDAR Sensor is a compact single‑point laser ranging solution engineered for demanding motion platforms and real‑time positioning systems. Built on Time‑of‑Flight (ToF) measurement technology, this high‑speed laser distance sensor delivers precise measurements at frequencies up to 10,000Hz while reaching targets as far as 290 meters under optimal reflectivity conditions. A lightweight 10.5g structure and compact 32.0 × 30.2 × 20.2mm footprint make this UAV‑optimized ranging module ideal for aerial robotics, optoelectronic tracking equipment, and advanced automation platforms requiring rapid response, long‑distance perception, and stable operation in challenging outdoor environments.


Ultra‑High 10,000Hz Measurement Frequency

An adjustable ranging frequency up to 10,000Hz enables this high‑speed laser distance measurement module to capture distance data up to ten thousand times per second. Such rapid sampling allows reliable detection and tracking of extremely fast‑moving targets, even approaching Mach 1 speeds. For UAV obstacle avoidance and high‑velocity robotics, this capability significantly increases reaction time for navigation systems, allowing earlier detection of hazards and smoother trajectory corrections during high‑speed flight or automated maneuvering tasks.

Extended Detection Range up to 290m

This long‑range LiDAR ranging unit supports reliable measurement distances up to 290 meters for high‑reflectivity targets (90%), while maintaining detection capability at 170 meters for medium reflectivity and 100 meters for low‑reflectivity objects. Such extended sensing distance is valuable for aerial platforms and surveillance equipment that require significant forward visibility. Long‑range perception enables accurate coordinate positioning in search‑and‑rescue drones and supports terrain‑aware altitude control in logistics UAV operations.


Lightweight SWaP‑Optimized Design

A mass of only 10.5g combined with a compact mechanical footprint makes this miniature LiDAR module well suited for Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP) sensitive systems. Integration into small drones, infrared targeting pods, or compact robotic payloads becomes straightforward without significantly affecting flight endurance or payload capacity. The small form factor allows designers to optimize system architecture while maintaining reliable high‑precision distance sensing capabilities.

Dual‑Protocol Connectivity for Rapid Integration

Integrated UART and CAN communication interfaces provide flexible connectivity for modern flight control and robotic platforms. A JST GH1.25mm terminal allows direct wiring to flight controllers without adapters, simplifying hardware integration. Support for the DroneCAN protocol through the provided SDK enables efficient communication within UAV ecosystems while reducing development complexity. Stable operation across temperatures from -20℃ to +60℃ and strong resistance to bright ambient light up to 100KLux ensure reliable performance even in rain, fog, sand, or dusty outdoor environments.
