Good sensor, small footprint
Great performance for the price. Wish the pin headers were pre-soldered.
5 FAQ
Q: Can it measure magnetic field?
A: No, this is a 6-DOF module. It does not include a magnetometer.
Q: What is the default I2C address?
A: The default I2C address is typically 0x68 or 0x69 depending on the AD0 pin state.
Q: Does it come with a library?
A: We do not include a physical library, but many open-source libraries are available online.
Q: What is the update rate?
A: The sensor supports update rates up to 1600Hz for the gyroscope.
Q: Is this compatible with Arduino Uno?
A: Yes, it works with 3.3V logic. You may need a level shifter for 5V boards.
