Good sensor, tricky setup

The hardware is great but finding the right library took some time. Once working, it's very accurate.

Pins were slightly bent

Sensor works fine after straightening pins, but packaging could be better to protect the headers.

High sampling rate confirmed

Tested the SPI speed and it handles 8MHz without issues. Great for real-time applications.

5 FAQ

Q: Is this compatible with 5V Arduino boards?

A: Yes, the module includes a voltage regulator, so it works safely with 5V logic.

Q: Is there a magnetometer included?

A: No, this is a 6-DOF sensor (Gyro + Accelerometer). For 9-DOF, you would need an additional magnetometer.

Q: What is the exact chip on the breakout?

A: This breakout board features the genuine InvenSense MPU6500 chip.

Q: Can I use I2C instead of SPI?

A: Yes, the MPU6500 supports both interfaces. You can select via the AD0 pin.

Q: Does it come with example code?

A: We provide a link to GitHub repositories with Arduino and Python examples in the documentation.
