Adafruit ISM330DHCX 6 DoF IMU Accelerometer and Gyroscope - STEMMA QT / Qwiic

The Adafruit ISM330DHCX is an industrial quality 6 degrees of freedom inertial measurement unit (IMU) combining accelerometer and gyroscope functionalities on the same silicon die. It provides precise measurements of linear acceleration and angular velocity with ranges of ±2/±4/±8/±16 g (accelerometer) and ±125/±250/±500/±1000/±2000/±4000 dps (gyroscope).

This IMU supports high update rates from 1.6 Hz to 6.7 KHz and operates reliably in a wide temperature range from -40 to +105°C, making it suitable for industrial applications. Features include built-in tap and activity detection, pedometer/step counter, and a programmable finite state machine for gesture recognition.

The board supports both SPI and I2C interfacing, with two configurable interrupt pins and additional external device connectivity for optical image stabilization. It comes with onboard voltage regulation and level shifting for compatibility with 3V to 5V logic devices. SparkFun Qwiic compatible STEMMA QT connectors allow solderless I2C connection.

Includes access to Arduino and CircuitPython libraries for easy integration, as well as comprehensive documentation and example code.
