SparkFun Triple Axis Accelerometer and Gyro Breakout - MPU-6050

Description

The MPU-6050 is a serious little piece of motion processing tech! By combining a MEMS 3-axis gyroscope and a 3-axis accelerometer on the same silicon die together with an onboard Digital Motion Processor? (DMP?) Capable of processing complex 9-axis MotionFusion algorithms, the MPU-6050 does away with the cross-axis alignment problems that can creep up on discrete parts.

Our breakout board for the MPU-6050 makes this tiny QFN package easy to work into your project. Every pin you need to get up and running is broken out to 0.1 ″ headers, including the auxiliary master I2C bus which allows the MPU-6050 to access external magnetometers and other sensors.
