Parallax Gyroscope Module 3-Axis L3G4200D
Parallax Gyroscope Module 3-Axis L3G4200D, Parallax Gyroscope Module 3-Axis L3G4200D The Gyroscope Module is a low power 3-axis angular rate sensor featuring temperature data as an added bonus. Raw measured angular rate and temperature data are accessed from the selectable digital interface (IA^2C or SPI). The module features a small package design and has an easy to access SIP interface with a mounting hole for quick connectivity to your projects. It is designed for use with a large variety of microcontrollers with different voltage requirements.Features: 3-Axis angular rate sensor (yaw, pitch, and roll) Supports IA^2C and SPI communications Three selectable scales: 250/500/2000 degrees/sec (dps) High shock survivability Embedded temperature sensor -40 to +185 F (-40 to + 85 C) Embedded power-down and sleep mode 16 bit-rate value data output 8-bit temperature data output Application Ideas: Gaming 3D motion control Virtual reality input devices Robotics UAV, IMU systems Specifications: Power Requirements: 2.7 to 6.5 VDC Communication Interface: IA^2C (up to 400 kHz) or SPI (10 MHz; 4 & 3 wire) Operating temperature: -40 to +185 F (-40 to +85 C) Dimensions: 0.85 X 0.80 in (2.16 X 2.03 cm) Downloads & Resources: Gyroscope Documentation (.pdf) Gyroscope Datasheet (.pdf) Gyroscope Example Spin Source Code (.zip) Gyroscope Example BS2 Source Code (.zip) Gyroscope AppNote 1 (.pdf) Gyroscope AppNote 2 (.pdf)
