Gravity LIS2DH 3-Axis Acceleration Sensor I2C

This Gravity accelerometer from DFRobot measures acceleration in three axes with the LIS2DH. The measuring range can be set from ±2 g to ±16 g, the data comes with 16 bits via I2C. In low-power mode, the sensor needs only 2 µA. Two programmable interrupts signal free fall or motion and can wake up a microcontroller.

Note: The connection cable can be converted to male pins with a Dupont cable M-M, so that it also fits an Arduino UNO.

Recommended Accessories:

• Dupont Cables M-M 10cm 20 Pieces

Features:

• Measuring range ±2 g, ±4 g, ±8 g or ±16 g
• Data rate 1 Hz to 5.3 kHz, resolution 16 bits
• 2 interrupt generators for free fall and motion
• 6D/4D orientation detection
• Temperature sensor and FIFO in the chip
• Level shifter on the board, for 3.3 V and 5 V microcontrollers

Application Examples:

• Display rotation and orientation detection
• Pedometers and wearables
• Detecting and logging impacts
• Input devices for games, control by shaking
