This inertial measurement unit expertly combines three top-tier sensors, delivering 11 axes of data. It offers 3-axis accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetic data, along with barometric pressure, altitude, and temperature readings.
Integrating L3DG20H gyroscope, LSM303DLHC accelerometer, compass, and BMP180 barometric/temperature sensors, this versatile breakout saves both space and cost. Designed for efficiency, it uses I2C communication, requiring just two wires. Advanced features like 'data ready' and 'interrupt' pins provide options for more in-depth interfacing.
The built-in 3V regulator ensures reverse-polarity protection, while level-shifting circuitry allows usage with either 3V or 5V logic boards. Equipped with mounting holes, it's perfect for securely attaching to a rocket, robot, or art project. The package includes an assembled and tested 10DOF breakout board and a header piece.
Key specifications: L3GD20H gyroscope offers scaling up to ±2000 degrees per second; the LSM303 compass measures magnetic fields with a range up to ±8.1 gauss, while its accelerometer offers selectable scales from ±2g to ±16g. The BMP180 sensor operates within -40 to 85 °C and supports pressure measurement from 300 to 1100hPa with 0.17m resolution.
