Introduction
This Gyro Breakout Board is Discontinued Now, We recommend more IMU Sensors as a suitable replacement.
The ADXRS MEMs gyroscope from Analog Devices is a great sensor. You can now use gyroscope rate sensing in your own projects with this miniature breakout board from DFRobot. Units come fully populated and tested with an empty 0.1" spaced footprint ready for a straight header(included in the pack), right angle header, or your own wires/umbilical cable.
Applications
- Vehicle chassis rollover sensing
- Inertial measurement units
- Platform stabilization
Specifications
- Voltage: 5V DC

Wiring Diagram
Sample Code
int z;
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600); // sets the serial port to 9600
}
void loop()
{
z = analogRead(0); // read analog input pin 0
Serial.print("rotation rate in z: ");
Serial.println(z, DEC); // print the rotation rate in the Z axis
delay(100); // wait 100ms for next reading
}
