Abstract: The present disclosure describes proximity sensor modules that include a time-of-flight (TOF) sensor. The module can include a plurality of chambers corresponding, respectively, to a light emission channel and a light detection channel. The channels can be optically separated from one another such that light from a light emitter element in the light emission chamber does not impinge directly on light sensitive elements of the TOF sensor in the light detection chamber. To achieve a module with a relatively small footprint, some parts of the TOF sensor can be located within the light emission chamber.

Abstract translation: 本公开描述了包括飞行时间（TOF）传感器的接近传感器模块。 模块可以包括分别对应于发光通道和光检测通道的多个室。 通道可以彼此光学地分离，使得来自发光室中的发光元件的光不直接照射在光检测室中的TOF传感器的光敏元件上。 为了实现占地面积相对较小的模块，TOF传感器的一些部件可以位于发光室内。
