MPU-6050 3-Axis Accelerometer and Gyro Sensor Module

Product Description

MPU-6050 Module consists of 3 axis accelerometer and 3 axis Gyrometer. MPU-6050 is used to measure motion-related parameters like velocity, acceleration, displacement, orientation, etc. There is an inbuilt 16 bit ADC in the MPU-6050 module that provides high accuracy. The module has an onboard Digital Motion Processor (DMP) capable of processing complex 9-axis motion fusion algorithms and hence free up the microcontroller.

The MPU-6050 3-Axis Accelerometer and Gyro Sensor module use MPU-6050 which is a little piece of motion processing technology. The MPU6050 devices combine a 3-axis gyroscope and a 3-axis accelerometer on the same silicon together with an onboard Digital Motion Processor (DMP) capable of processing complex 9-axis Motion Fusion algorithms.

MPU-6050 3 axis accelerometer has 8 pins i.e., VCC, GND, SCL, SDA, XDA, XCL, AD0 and INT. VCC and GND are connected to the 5V supply and ground respectively to power up the circuit. SCL (Serial Clock Pin) is used to provide a clock pulse for I2C communication. SDA (Serial Data Pin) is used for data transmission by I2C communication. XDA (Auxiliary Serial Clock Pin) and XCL (Auxiliary Serial Data Pin) are two additional pins which can be left idle or can be used to provide an interface between other I2C modules with MPU-6050 module. ADO pin can be used to different addresses if more than one MPU-6050 module is used in the circuit. INT is the digital output interrupt pin.
