DescriptionThe Adafruit LSM6DSOX + LIS3MDL FeatherWing is a precision 9-DoF IMU FeatherWing for motion sensing, orientation, and sensor-fusion projects. It combines the LSM6DSOX 6-DoF accelerometer/gyroscope with the LIS3MDL 3-axis magnetometer, giving a Feather project acceleration, rotation, and magnetic-heading data over I2C.This Adafruit 4565 IMU FeatherWing works with Feather boards such as the Adafruit Feather RP2350 and can be paired with prototyping accessories like the FeatherWing Proto. The STEMMA QT / Qwiic connector makes I2C expansion easier; a matching same-store STEMMA QT cable can be added for plug-and-play sensor wiring.The board is designed for Arduino and CircuitPython workflows and Adafruit describes it as fully tested and assembled with a strip of standard 0.1 inch header.Features 9-DoF IMU FeatherWing for Feather-based motion-sensing projects. LSM6DSOX with 3-axis accelerometer and 3-axis gyroscope. LIS3MDL 3-axis magnetometer for magnetic north and sensor fusion. I2C bus with address-selection jumpers and interrupt pins broken out. STEMMA QT / Qwiic connector for solder-free I2C expansion. Supports Adafruit Arduino/C++ and CircuitPython libraries. LSM6DSOX extras include tap detection, activity detection, step counter, finite state machine, and machine learning core.
