This ICM-20948 motion sensor provides sophisticated multi-axis motion detection by capturing movement in nine different directions: 3-axis acceleration, 3-axis gyroscope, and 3-axis compass heading. Whether you're assembling a robotics project or crafting a custom drone, this sensor measures three motion types across three axes with remarkable 16-bit resolution, ensuring precision in your creations.
Designed with efficiency in mind, this low-power sensor is ideal for battery-powered setups. Its compatibility with Raspberry Pi and Arduino platforms enhances its versatility for a range of electronics projects. Utilizing the I2C interface, it operates at either 3.3V or 5V, with a pinout perfectly aligned for Raspberry Pi integration.
This unit easily connects to our modular Breakout Garden system, simplifying the process of incorporating breakouts into your innovations. The board's Qwiic/STEMMA QT compatibility ensures effortless connections via Qw/ST cables, eliminating the need for soldering when linking with different microcontrollers or add-ons.
Features include a wide-ranging 3-axis compass reaching up to ±4900 μT, configurable 3-axis accelerometer and gyroscope settings, and a secure Breakout Garden connector. Bundled with a right-angle socket header, this setup allows quick attachment to a Raspberry Pi's GPIO header (pins 1, 3, 5, 7, 9). A comprehensive Python library and example codes are available to help you dive right into data acquisition and analysis.
