Hello
I want to use 2 Vl53L0X I2C sensors on a single arduino UNO board without multiplexer
is it possible?

Hello,
Welcome to the Arduino Forum.
This guide explains how to get the best out of this forum. Please read and follow the instructions below.
Being new here you might think this is having rules for the sake of rules, but that is not the case. If you don’t follow the guidelines all that happens is there is a long exchange of posts while we try to get you to tell us what we need in order to help you, which is frus…
Look at this thread, I posted a solution to a similar problem.
It generated some debate over how it worked, but it does work, using two extra outputs to select the TOF device.
My latest project requires 2 i2c "wire" connections to two identical devices that have the same address, and can't be changed.
Can I instantiate 2 "wire" interfaces, using 4 of the Nano I/O ports (2 for each, obviously), or do I need to use an i2c expansion board, such as the HW-617 using the TCA9548A chip.
The two interfaces will never be active at the same time...
TIA

Yes, you can change the I2C address
The VL53L0X is a Time of Flight distance sensor like no other you've used! The sensor contains a very tiny invisible laser source, and a matching sensor. The VL53L0X can detect the "time of flight", or how long the light has taken to bounce back to...
