{"title":"SparkFun Triple Axis Accelerometer Breakout - LIS3DH","handle":"sparkfun-triple-axis-accelerometer-breakout-lis3dh","url":"/products/sparkfun-triple-axis-accelerometer-breakout-lis3dh","description":"The SparkFun LIS3DH breakout is a low-power, three-axis accelerometer with 12-bit resolution, ideal for adding motion and orientation detection to your projects. It communicates over I2C or SPI and includes three additional analogue inputs and built-in movement detection features such as tap, double-tap, and free-fall sensing.\n\nThe breakout is breadboard-friendly and straightforward to wire — connect your preferred interface (I2C or SPI), supply 3.3 V, and ground. The board's form factor adds enough mass to provide realistic acceleration readings similar to those from a phone or finished product.\n\nKey Features\n\n\n3-Axis Accelerometer – 12-bit resolution across X, Y, and Z axes (3 DoF)\n\nLow Power Consumption – Ideal for battery-powered and wearable applications\n\nDual Interface – Supports both I2C and SPI communication\n\nBuilt-In Motion Detection – Tap, double-tap, free-fall, and orientation sensing\n\n3 Analogue Inputs – Additional ADC channels for extra sensor inputs\n\nBreadboard Friendly – Standard 0.1-inch header spacing\n\n\n\nWarning: The LIS3DH is a 3.3 V device. Supplying voltages above ~3.6 V will permanently damage the IC. If using SPI with a 5 V microcontroller, a level shifter is required. I2C at 3.3 V works directly with most Arduino boards via the 3.3 V supply pin.\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nMotion and gesture detection projects\nWearable and portable devices\nTilt and orientation sensing\nImpact and free-fall detection systems\n\n\nResources\n\nLIS3DH Hookup Guide\n","vendor":"SparkFun","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":10819,"title":"Default Title","sku":"SF-SEN-13963","price":15.21,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":102,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
