About this item

The Digilent Pmod GYRO is a compact 3-axis digital gyroscope module powered by the STMicroelectronics L3G4200D MEMS sensor, designed to measure angular velocity along the X, Y, and Z axes. It offers user-selectable resolutions of 250, 500, or 2000 degrees per second (dps) and supports output data rates up to 800 Hz, making it suitable for applications requiring precise motion tracking. The module features both SPI and I²C communication interfaces, providing flexibility for integration with various microcontrollers and development boards. Additionally, it includes two customizable interrupt pins and user-configurable signal filtering, allowing for tailored performance to meet specific application needs. The Pmod GYRO operates within a voltage range of 2.4V to 3.6V, with a recommended operating voltage of 3.3V, and is housed in a compact 1.0 in × 0.8 in (2.5 cm × 2.0 cm) PCB, facilitating easy integration into space-constrained designs. It also offers power-down and sleep modes to conserve energy during periods of inactivity. With its high shock survivability and comprehensive features, the Pmod GYRO is an excellent choice for projects involving robotics, motion sensing, and orientation detection.
