MPU-6050 is a popular sensor module that integrates a 3-axis gyroscope and a 3-axis accelerometer on a single chip. It is widely used in applications such as motion tracking, drone stabilization, and robotics due to its ability to provide both acceleration and angular velocity data.
Specifications
- Axes: 3-axis (X, Y, Z)
- Communication: I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) protocol
- Operating Voltage: 3.3V to 5V
- Power Consumption: Low power typically around 3.9 mA in normal mode.
- Onboard Digital Motion Processor (DMP): Can offload sensor fusion computations from the microcontroller, providing additional processing power and reducing system load.
