SparkFun OpenLog Artemis Kit (without IMU)

The SparkFun OpenLog Artemis (without IMU) Kit is intended to provide everything you need to log the data of your choice with the OpenLog Artemis and the Qwiic Ecosystem. Inside the kit you will find a reversible USB-A to C cable for power, a 1250mAh LiPo battery for remote applications, a 1GB microSD card, and all the necessary Qwiic cables to connect the included boards. The SparkFun Qwiic GPS Breakout, SparkFun Qwiic Scale, and SparkFun High Precision Temperature are included to enable access to data from any and all Qwiic sensors you may be using in each unique project application.

The SparkFun OpenLog Artemis (without IMU), or "OLA," is an open source data logger that comes preprogrammed to automatically log IMU, GPS, serial data, and various pressure, humidity, and distance sensors. OLA automatically detects, configures, and logs Qwiic sensors plugged into the board (No soldering! No programming!). The OpenLog Artemis is highly configurable over an easy to use serial interface. Simply plug in a USB-C cable and open a terminal at 115200bps. The logging output is automatically streamed to both the terminal and the microSD. Pressing any key will open the configuration menu. The OLA is specifically designed for users who just need to capture a lot of data to a CSV and get back to their larger project.

The Qwiic GPS is a high quality GPS board with equally impressive configuration options. The SAM-M8Q is a 72-channel GNSS receiver, meaning it can receive signals from the GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo constellations. This increases precision and decreases lock time and thanks to the on-board rechargeable battery, you'll have backup power enabling the GPS to get a hot lock within seconds!

The SparkFun Qwiic Scale is a small breakout board for the NAU7802 that allows you to easily read load cells to accurately measure the weight of an object. By connecting the board to your microcontroller you will be able to read the changes in the resistance of a load cell and, with some calibration, you'll be able to get very accurate weight measurements.

The SparkFun Qwiic High Precision Temperature breakout is a high precision temperature sensor equipped with an I2C interface. It outputs temperature readings with high precision of ±0.1°C across the temperature range of -20°C to +50°Cs with no calibration and a maximum range from -55°C to 150°C. The SparkFun High Precision Temperature Sensor also has a very low power consumption rate which minimizes the impact of self-heating on measurement accuracy.

This version of the OpenLog Artemis that is included in this kit has the ICM-20948 IMU sensor removed. This IC is becoming increasingly difficult to locate. This version still supports auto-detection and logging of over a dozen sensors and GNSS receivers.


The SparkFun Qwiic connect system is an ecosystem of I2C sensors, actuators, shields and cables that make prototyping faster and less prone to error. All Qwiic-enabled boards use a common 1mm pitch, 4-pin JST connector. This reduces the amount of required PCB space, and polarized connections mean you can’t hook it up wrong.
