The DFRobot 10 DOF MEMS IMU Sensor combines four sensors on a single compact board — the ADXL345 accelerometer, ITG-3205 gyroscope, HMC5883L magnetometer, and BMP085 barometric pressure sensor. Together they provide 1...

SKU: SF-SEN-14049 | Brand: SparkFun

The MAX31820 ambient temperature sensor provides 9-bit to 12-bit Celsius temperature measurements with ±0.5°C accuracy over a +10°C to +45°C temperature range. Over its entire -55°C to +125°C operating range, the devi...

SKU: SF-COM-08348 | Brand: SparkFun

The TEMT6000x01 is a compact ambient light sensor that operates as an NPN phototransistor. The more light that hits the sensor, the stronger the base bias, producing an analog output proportional to the ambient light ...

SKU: SF-SEN-12041 | Brand: SparkFun

If you need to add user input without using a button, then a capacitive touch interface might be the answer. The AT42QT1010 SparkFun Capacitive Touch Breakout offers a single capacitive touch button with easy-to-use d...

SKU: SF-SEN-12040 | Brand: SparkFun

The INA169 is a “high-side current monitor,” which means that you place a resistor (a “shunt resistor”) on the positive power rail and the INA169 measures the voltage drop across that resistor. The INA169 outputs a sm...

SKU: SF-BOB-08276 | Brand: SparkFun

This is a simple breakout board for the popular XBee product from Digi. This board breaks out all 20 pins of the XBee to a 0.1" standard spacing dual row header. The spacing between 0.1" headers is 0.5" making it b...
