Description
Module, using a 3-axis accelerometer and gyroscope, can measure the acceleration and angular velocity in three-dimensional space. The system MPU has a hardware unit DMP (Digital Motion Processor) that allows recalculation of the data to the position relative to the Earth.
For communication with the central unit, the popular I2C bus (TWI) is used. The module has, necessary for the correct operation of the system, passive elements. Leads are popular goldpin connectors, for connecting the sensor viawiresor for connecting directly to breadboard.
The product is compatible with Arduino The manufacturer provides alibrary for the Arduinoand a detaileduser manual. |
Leads
The sensor has four main leads for the installation of the goldpin connectors - 2.54 mm pitch (strip is included in the set for self-Assembly).
