It provides digital motion measurements over I\u00b2C. It is a six-axis IMU, not a nine-axis compass: a magnetometer is required for magnetic heading or nine-axis sensor fusion.<\/p>\n<h4>\ud83d\udd27 Sensor specifications<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Accelerometer: three axes, programmable full-scale ranges of \u00b12 g, \u00b14 g, \u00b18 g and \u00b116 g<\/li>\n<li>Gyroscope: three axes, programmable full-scale ranges of \u00b1250, \u00b1500, \u00b11000 and \u00b12000 degrees per second<\/li>\n<li>Resolution: 16-bit ADC outputs for the accelerometer and gyroscope measurements<\/li>\n<li>Host interface: I\u00b2C on the MPU-6050; the chip specification supports I\u00b2C up to 400 kHz<\/li>\n<li>The chip includes a Digital Motion Processor (DMP) and an auxiliary I\u00b2C interface for an external sensor; the exact firmware\/library determines which processing and sensor-fusion features are available<\/li>\n<li>The source listing states a 3\u20135 V input for the breakout board, while the MPU-6050 chip itself operates from 2.375\u20133.46 V. Carrier boards differ: check whether this board includes a regulator and how its I\u00b2C pull-ups are wired. Do not apply 5 V directly to the chip or assume 5 V-safe logic.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>\u2699\ufe0f Connection and setup<\/h4>\n<p>Connect the board\u2019s documented supply and ground, then SDA and SCL to the host I\u00b2C bus. Confirm the breakout\u2019s allowed input voltage and I\u00b2C logic levels before connecting to a 5 V controller; use a level shifter if needed. Keep the sensor firmly mounted and align its axes with the directions used by your software.<\/p>\n<p>Select the required accelerometer and gyroscope ranges in firmware. Calibrate offsets with the sensor stationary, and account for gyroscope drift over time. Accelerometer readings include gravity and respond to vibration; filtering and sensor-fusion algorithms may be needed to estimate orientation smoothly. A magnetometer is needed to correct yaw drift against magnetic north.<\/p>\n<h4>\ud83d\udca1 Typical uses<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>Motion, tilt and vibration sensing in microcontroller projects<\/li>\n<li>Orientation experiments and basic inertial measurement<\/li>\n<li>Robotics, stabilization and gesture-recognition prototypes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Measurement quality depends on mounting, calibration, vibration, temperature, board layout and software. This development module is not a certified navigation or safety instrument.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Six-axis MPU-6050 motion sensor board combining a 3-axis gyroscope and 3-axis accelerometer, with digital I\u00b2C output.
