Adafruit 9-DOF Accel/Mag/Gyro+Temp Breakout Board - LSM9DS0

Add motion, direction, and orientation sensing to your Arduino project with this all-in-one 9-DOF sensor. This chip includes a 3-axis accelerometer to measure direction and acceleration, a 3-axis magnetometer for magnetic north detection, and a 3-axis gyroscope to capture spin and twist.

The LSM9DS0 from ST micro is designed to offer versatile capabilities at a great price. Craft activity or motion trackers using the comprehensive data from this compact breakout board, complete with a 3V regulator and level shifting circuitry adaptable to 3V or 5V microcontrollers such as Arduino.

Featuring both I2C and SPI interfaces, connecting to Arduino is straightforward: just power Vin and GND with 3-5VDC, and link I2C data on SCL and SDA. The board, which comes fully assembled and tested, includes extra headers for breadboard use, four mounting holes for secure connection, and conveniently placed power and data pins.
