Replacement: None. Although we don't have a direct replacement for this board, we have many IMUs in the IMU category. This page is for reference only.
The Inertia Measurement Unit Combo Board is now available! This small PCB board incorporates an Analog MEMs gyroscope and accelerometer in a tight footprint. The IMU board uses a standard .1" footprint and includes all outputs from both the ADXRS Gyro and ADXL Accelerometer ICs.
We created this board because of the retirement of the Tokin CG-16D piezoelectric sensors. These cheap sensors are now becoming obsolete and difficult to find. The ADXRS sensors from Analog are a great substitute but hobbyists were hindered by the BGA package. By combining the ADXRS with the ADXL sensors, the IMU board enables students and hobbyists to easily incorporate yaw and tilt measurements into their projects or robots.
Board comes fully assembled and tested with ADXL320 and ADXRS610 (300 degree per second). Units come as shown without headers installed. We recommend right-angle break away headers, straight pin headers, or wire up your own cable!
