SparkFun 9DoF IMU Breakout - ICM-20948 (Qwiic)
We have ✅ 7 available of the SF-SEN-15335 in our Sydney warehouse.
The SparkFun 9DoF IMU Breakout brings InvenSense's ICM-20948 9-axis motion tracking sensor to a Qwiic-enabled breakout board with an on-board logic level shifter and broken-out GPIO pins. The ICM-20948 is an extremely low-power sensor supporting both I2C and SPI communication, suited for wearable devices, robotics, drones, and IoT applications.
The board features a built-in Digital Motion Processor (DMP) that offloads motion sensing computation from the host microcontroller, allowing optimal sensor performance. All ICM-20948 pins are broken out to GPIO headers, labelled with I2C on the front and SPI on the back for easy identification. A Qwiic connector enables solderless I2C hookup, while 2.54 mm header pins support breadboard use.
