The Gravity I2C 1 kg Weight Sensor Kit is a complete scale-building kit that includes a load cell, HX711 signal adapter board, acrylic mounting bracket, and all hardware needed to measure weight from 1 g to 1,000 g. The on-board MCU processes HX711 data and communicates via I²C, making it compatible with Arduino, micro:bit, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi.

Unlike basic HX711 breakouts, this kit features a built-in calibration algorithm with one-button calibration — no separate calibration sketch needed. Simply press the button or use the API to calibrate, then start reading weight values over I²C.

Key Features

  • 1 g to 1,000 g Range – Suitable for small-scale weighing applications
  • HX711 ADC with On-board MCU – Processed data output via I²C for easy integration
  • One-Button Calibration – Built-in calibration algorithm, no separate code needed
  • API Calibration – Alternatively calibrate programmatically via software
  • Gravity I²C Interface – Standard DFRobot Gravity connector with 3.3V/5V compatibility
  • Configurable I²C Address – 0x64, 0x65, 0x66, or 0x67
  • Complete Kit – All mounting hardware and acrylic bracket included
