shop/ electrical & magnetic sensors/ lsm303 accelerometer + magnetometer compass board

This module is the integration of 2 sensors, a 3-axis accelerometer that helps you get the change of velocity of an object, sensing vibrations, and checking orientation, and a magnetometer to locate where true NORTH is.

It uses I2C, so integration would be easy with using just 2 pins. Its operating voltage is from 3.3V to 5V. There's also a Data Ready and 2 interrupt pins available. The data ready pin is a pin that indicates when the data is available to be read.

You could use this sensor for projects that need displacement and orientation of an object.

If you need only the 3-axis or 6-axis accelerometer we have it here.
