Better than MPU6050
Switched from MPU6050 to this BMI160 based module. The noise level is significantly lower and the UART interface saves GPIO pins.

Good sensor, minor wiring confusion
The module works well once connected correctly. The TX/RX labels were slightly small but functionally it is accurate. Good value for money.

Compact and reliable
Fits easily into small frames. Data rate is consistent. Would give 5 stars if the cable was included, but overall satisfied.

Great for student projects
Bought 10 units for our embedded systems course. All arrived working and students found the documentation sufficient to get started.

Perfect for self-balancing robot
The angle output is very stable. I used this with an STM32 and the UART parsing was straightforward. Highly recommend for balance projects.
Q: Can I connect this directly to a 5V Arduino?
A: Yes, the module supports 3.3V to 5V input logic. You can connect TX/RX directly to Arduino Uno.
Q: How do I calibrate the angle zero?
A: You can send a specific UART command to set the current position as zero. Refer to the command manual section 4.2.
Q: Does this module have a magnetometer?
A: No, this is a 6-axis IMU (Accelerometer + Gyroscope). It does not include a magnetometer.
Q: What is the maximum update frequency?
A: The default is 100Hz, but it can be configured up to 200Hz via UART commands.
Q: Is there a library available for Python?
A: Yes, we provide a Python example script on our download page that works with Raspberry Pi.
