Add motion, direction and orientation sensing to your Arduino project with this all-in-one 9-DOF sensor. Inside the chip are three sensors, one is a classic 3-axis accelerometer, which can tell you which direction is down towards the Earth (by measuring gravity) or how fast the board is accelerating in 3D space. The other is a 3-axis magnetometer that may sense where the strongest magnetic force is coming from, in most cases used to detect magnetic north. The third is a 3-axis gyroscope that may measure spin and twist. By combining this data you’ll REALLY orient yourself.
Characteristics:
Accelerometer: ±2/±4/±8/±16 g (no ±6 g range).
Magnetometer: ±4/±8/±12/±16 gauss ranges.
Gyroscope: ±245/±500/±2000 dps ranges.
The breakout board version of this sensor has both I2C and SPI interfaces. Attaching it to the Arduino is simple, power Vin and GND with 3-5VDC, and wire up I2C data on SCL and SDA, and you are ready to go! More advanced users can use SPI, our library has make stronger for both. The breakout comes fully assembled and tested, with some extra header so you’ll apply it to a breadboard. Four mounting holes make for a protected connection, and we put the preferred power+data pins on one side, and the interrupt pins at the other side for a nice & compact breakout.
Make sure that this fits by entering your model number.
