Introduction

The VT5366 sensor is a single-chip solid state optical tracking engine with no moving parts.

It allows the creation of a highly performing, fully featured wired or wireless mouse with the

minimum of external components. The device, which provides excellent navigation control

and precision, works on a wide range of surfaces.

VT5366 incorporates features that simplify product design and reduce time to market. By

minimizing the number of external components, the mouse manufacturer has flexibility for

layout and product design.

ST has worked with optical component suppliers to produce a single piece light guide with

integrated lens, and makes recommendations for a compatible LED. Details of the optics

and LED are included in this document.
