The sensors communicate over I2C and one INT output pin from each sensor is broken out. If you need a simple and tiny board that gives you 6 degrees of freedom, this would be a good choice.

Introduction

6DOF.jpg

This product is a simple breakout for the ADXL345 accelerometer and the ITG-3205 gyro. You get a full 6 degrees of freedom With this board. The sensors communicate over I2C and one INT output pin from each sensor is broken out. If you need a simple and tiny board that gives you 6 degrees of freedom, this would be a good choice.


Features
