Slamtec RPLIDAR S2 360° dToF Lidar
Slamtec RPLIDAR S2 (S2M1-R2) is a 360° 2D dToF laser scanner. It ranges 0.05–30 m on white targets (90 %) and 0.05–10 m on black (10 %), at 32 kHz and 10 Hz (0.12°), with ±30 mm accuracy and 13 mm resolution. It uses 3.3 V TTL UART at 1 Mbps on an XH2.54-5P and runs on 5 V (500 mA typ, 1.5 A start-up). 905 nm Class 1, 185 g, 77 × 77 × 39.8 mm, 4 × M3 on 41.7 mm.

Outdoor robots
IP65 and > 80 000 lux anti-ambient light (DFRobot) with a 30 m dToF range — suits outdoor mobile robots; note the datasheet itself is inconsistent about direct sunlight.
Manufacturer guidanceNo-load speed, rated performance and stall limits describe different operating points. A stall specification is not a continuous operating rating.

Max range is the printed figure at the stated target reflectivity; accuracy is the typical datasheet value. Scan frequency is the default rotation or frame rate.
Specifications
Motor performance
No-load, rated-load and stall figures retain their separate test conditions.
Stall torque and current are not continuous ratings. Check the duty cycle and starting load when choosing the driver and power supply.
Thermal limits by level
Product operating conditions, chip ambient ratings, package case limits and junction maxima remain separate.
