Accelerometer (LSM6DS3TR)

Accelerometer (LSM6DS3TR)

AX22-0054

Add precise 6-axis motion sensing to your projects with this compact IMU module. The LSM6DS3 combines a 3-axis accelerometer and 3-axis gyroscope in one package, perfect for motion tracking, gesture recognition, activity monitoring, or stabilization systems. With selectable ranges up to ±16g for acceleration and ±2000 dps for rotation, it handles everything from subtle movements to high-speed motion. Two STEMMA QT connectors make I²C daisy-chaining simple, while dual interrupt pins let you wake on motion, tap detection, or orientation changes. The sensor's built-in FIFO buffer and pedometer functions offload processing from your microcontroller. Drop it into any AX22 backplane and start sensing motion with Arduino IDE, MicroPython, or MicroBlocks.
