Add motion and precision temperature sensing to any Feather board with this all-in-one sensor FeatherWing from Adafruit. It combines two high-quality Analog Devices sensors — the ADXL343 triple-axis accelerometer and the ADT7410 precision temperature sensor — on a single FeatherWing PCB.
Both sensors communicate over the shared I2C bus, so it works with any Feather board. Interrupt pins and address-selection jumpers are broken out for advanced configurations or when using multiple FeatherWings.
Key Features
- ADXL343 Triple-Axis Accelerometer – ±2/±4/±8/±16 g selectable ranges, high-quality MEMS sensor from Analog Devices
- ADT7410 Precision Temperature Sensor – 16-bit resolution (0.0078°C), ±0.5°C accuracy
- I2C Interface – Both sensors on shared bus, works with any Feather
- Interrupt Pins – Broken out for event-driven applications
- Address Jumpers – Configurable I2C addresses to avoid conflicts
- Library Support – Arduino (C/C++) and CircuitPython libraries available
Ideal For
- Environmental monitoring with motion detection
- Activity and orientation tracking
- Data logging with temperature and acceleration
- Rapid prototyping with the Feather ecosystem

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- Address jumpers
- Address jumpers are small solder pads or links used to change a device’s bus address. They matter when you want to connect multiple identical displays to the same controller without their addresses conflicting.
- CircuitPython
- A beginner-friendly version of Python designed to run directly on microcontroller boards. If a product supports CircuitPython, you can often program it by copying code files onto the board rather than setting up a more complex toolchain.
- FeatherWing
- A FeatherWing is an add-on board made to plug into the Feather microcontroller board layout. Knowing a product is a FeatherWing helps you check whether it will physically and electrically fit your Feather-style mainboard.
- Headers
- Rows of metal pins used to plug a module into a breadboard or connect it with jumper wires. Pre-soldered headers make the module easier to use straight away without needing to solder the pins yourself.
- I2C
- I2C is a two-wire communication bus used by many sensors and small modules. It matters because several I2C devices can share the same two wires, but each device needs a compatible address and your controller must support I2C.
- Motion detection
- A camera feature that checks the image for changes that suggest something has moved. It matters because your project can use movement as a trigger instead of constantly saving or processing every frame.
- PCB
- A printed circuit board is a rigid board with copper tracks that connect electronic parts without loose wires. For this kit, the PCBs also form the airplane shape, so they are both the circuit base and part of the finished model.
