MPU-6050 6-Axis Accelerometer & Gyroscope Sensor Module
Bring precise motion tracking to your next robotics or embedded project with the MPU-6050. This highly versatile, low-cost IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) combines a 3-axis accelerometer and a 3-axis gyroscope into a single compact chip. Whether you are building a self-balancing robot, a wearable gesture device, or tracking RC drone telemetry, the MPU-6050 delivers highly reliable, real-time orientation data.
Equipped with an onboard Digital Motion Processor (DMP), it handles complex 6-axis MotionFusion algorithms internally. This frees up your microcontroller (like an Arduino or ESP32) from heavy mathematical processing, allowing your code to run smoothly
Key Features
6 Degrees of Freedom (6-DoF): Seamlessly tracks both linear acceleration and rotational velocity simultaneously.
Onboard DMP (Digital Motion Processor): Processes complex calculations on-chip to reduce processing load on your host microcontroller.
16-bit Precision: Built-in 16-bit Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADCs) for every channel ensure high accuracy and stable sensor readings.
Adjustable Full-Scale Ranges: Customize sensor sensitivity to match your project’s dynamics (from slow, precise movements to high-speed tracking).
Standard I2C Communication: Easy 2-wire interfacing with standard pull-up resistors already integrated on the breakout board.
