The LPR5150AL is low-power two-axis micromachined gyroscope able to measure angular rate along the pitch and roll axes. All required electronics are integrated onto a single chip with the sensor.
The LPR5150AL has a full scale of ±1500 °/s and is capable of detecting rates with a -3 dB bandwidth up to 140Hz. The gyroscope is the combination of one actuator and one accelerometer integrated in a single, micromachined structure. It includes a sensing element composed by single driving mass, kept in continuous oscillating movement and able to react when an angular rate is applied based on the Coriolis principle.
The sensed angular rates are output as analog voltages proportional to the supplied power with a sensitivity of 0.167 mV/°/s. 4x amplified outputs are also available for both axes.
The LPR5150AL is provided in a plastic LGA-16 package.
This skill defines how difficult the soldering is on a particular product. It might be a couple simple solder joints, or require special reflow tools.
Skill Level: Competent - You will encounter surface mount components and basic SMD soldering techniques are required.

If a board needs code or communicates somehow, you're going to need to know how to program or interface with it. The programming skill is all about communication and code.
Skill Level: Competent - The toolchain for programming is a bit more complex and will examples may not be explicitly provided for you. You will be required to have a fundamental knowledge of programming and be required to provide your own code. You may need to modify existing libraries or code to work with your specific hardware. Sensor and hardware interfaces will be SPI or I2C.

If it requires power, you need to know how much, what all the pins do, and how to hook it up. You may need to reference datasheets, schematics, and know the ins and outs of electronics.
Skill Level: Competent - You will be required to reference a datasheet or schematic to know how to use a component. Your knowledge of a datasheet will only require basic features like power requirements, pinouts, or communications type. Also, you may need a power supply that?s greater than 12V or more than 1A worth of current.
