ICM20948 9DoF Motion Sensor Breakout

DESCRIPTION

This ICM20948 motion sensor is the bee's knees! Detect movement in nine different ranges of motion: 3-axis acceleration, 3-axis gyroscopic motion, and 3-axis compass heading.

Use this sensor in your DIY robot or drone builds to measure three different types of motion in three different axes accurately with 16-bit resolution. It's really low-power too, so it's ideal for embedding in battery-powered projects, and it's Raspberry Pi and Arduino compatible.

FEATURES

• ICM20948 9DoF motion sensor
• ±2/±4/±8/±16 g 3-axis accelerometer
• ±250/±500/±1000/±2000 DPS (degrees per second) 3-axis gyroscope
• 3-axis compass with a wide range up to ±4900 μT
• 16-bit data output
• I2C interface (address 0x68/0x69 (cut trace))
• 3.3V or 5V compatible
• Reverse polarity protection
• Compatible with all models of Raspberry Pi, and Arduino
• Python library available

Kit includes

• ICM20948 9DoF breakout
• 1x5 male header
• 1x5 female right-angle header

They've designed this breakout board so that you can solder on the piece of right angle female header and pop it straight onto the bottom left 5 pins on your Raspberry Pi's GPIO header (pins 1, 3, 5, 6, 9).

RESOURCES

They've put together a Python library that you can use to read data from your ICM20948 9DoF Breakout, and an easy one-line installer to install everything.

Please Note:

• The software does not support Raspbian Wheezy.
