This Triple Axis Accelerometer with Bosch BMA220 is an ultra small triaxial, low-g acceleration sensor breakboard with SPI and I2C interface, aiming for low power consumer market applications. It allows measurement of accelerations in 3 perpendicular axes and thus senses tilt, motion, shock and vibration in cell phones, handhelds, computer peripherals, man-machine interfaces, virtual reality features and game controllers.
With a size of only 2 mm x 2 mm, the Bosch BMA220 represents a new generation of acceleration sensors. The Tri-Axis Accelerometer integrates a multitude of features that acilitates its use especially in the area of motion detection applications, such as device orientation detection, gaming, HMI and menu browser control. It is highly configurable in order to give the designer full flexibility when integrating the sensor into his system.
It can be used in sensing tilt, motion and shock vibration in mobile devices, handhelds, digital peripherals, man-machine interfaces, virtual reality features and game consoles.
Note: Recommend to connect the sensor to 3.3v powered microcontroller. Though it directly works with Arduino UNO/arduino Leonardo(System working voltage: 5v).

Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- 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.
- HMI
- HMI stands for Human-Machine Interface, meaning the screen, buttons, or controls a person uses to interact with a device. For this product, it suggests the display is intended for control panels, dashboards, robot faces, or other user-facing interfaces.
- 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.
- LED
- A light-emitting diode is a small electronic component that lights up when current flows through it in the correct direction. In this kit, LEDs create the flashing effect, so polarity and correct soldering matter for the project to work.
- microcontroller
- A microcontroller is a small computer on a chip that runs your program and controls connected inputs and outputs. For this product, it is the part that reads buttons and sensors, drives the display and speaker, and communicates over Bluetooth.
- 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.
- SPI
- A fast serial communication bus often used for displays, memory cards, and sensors. It matters because SPI devices need specific pins for clock and data, plus a separate chip-select line for each device.
