Product Overview

The LIS3DH Breakout presents itself as a petite yet potent accelerometer module crafted for the assessment of motion and orientation. Harnessing the capabilities of the LIS3DH chip, this module boasts a low-power, three-axis accelerometer known for its remarkable precision and accuracy.

This breakout board is equipped with an I2C interface, facilitating seamless integration into an array of projects. Additionally, it incorporates a voltage regulator and level shifting circuitry, enabling compatibility with both 3.3V and 5V systems. The board's compact and lightweight design renders it particularly suitable for incorporation into portable and wearable devices.

Embedded within the breakout board, the LIS3DH chip demonstrates the ability to measure accelerations ranging up to +-16 g, featuring a 12-bit resolution. Noteworthy are its advanced power-saving attributes, including programmable interrupt modes and embedded FIFO memory. These aspects position it as an optimal choice for applications demanding precise motion sensing with minimal power consumption.

Belonging to the "nano" family, the LIS3DH is an ultra-low-power, high-performance three-axis linear accelerometer. Its digital I2C/SPI serial interface standard output is complemented by ultra-low-power operational modes, enabling advanced power-saving and intelligent embedded functionalities. The LIS3DH offers dynamically user-selectable full scales of +-2g/+-4g/+-8g/+-16g and can measure accelerations across output data rates ranging from 1 Hz to 5.3 kHz.

Versatility and reliability characterize the LIS3DH Breakout as an accelerometer module adaptable to a diverse range of projects, spanning robotics, gaming, and fitness tracking. Its diminutive size, frugal power consumption, and exceptional accuracy contribute to its popularity among both hobbyists and professionals.
