SparkFun Micro Triple Axis Accelerometer Breakout - LIS3DH (Qwiic)

Product Overview

This SparkFun Micro Triple Axis Accelerometer Breakout is an ultra-small, Qwiic-enabled breakout featuring the LIS3DH, a smart, low-power, three-axis, capacitive micro-machined accelerometer with 12-bit resolution, which you can use to add translation detection to your project. This board is classified as a 3DoF or 3 Degrees of Freedom. Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) can provide additional space location data, such as gyroscopic or magnetometric data. The LIS3DH on this breakout operates under the same principles but offers a few analog inputs to experiment with, and it includes some built-in movement detection capabilities.

This micro version of the Qwiic breakout only supports communication with the LIS3DH over I2C and, due to size constraints, breaks out only one of the accelerometer's interrupt pins, along with a single ground pin, to plated-through-hole (PTH) pins. Users who want to use the LIS3DH over SPI and access all the chip's pins should consider either the standard LIS3DH Qwiic breakout or the original LIS3DH Breakout.
