Description:
The GY-61 ADXL335 Triple Axis Accelerometer is a compact, low-power module designed to precisely measure acceleration in three dimensions. At its core is the ADXL335 accelerometer IC, which provides analog voltage outputs proportional to acceleration along the X, Y, and Z axes. This module can measure both static acceleration, such as gravity, and dynamic acceleration resulting from motion, shock, or vibration, making it suitable for applications like tilt sensing, motion detection, and vibration monitoring.
The GY-61 module operates over a wide voltage range from 3V to 5V, thanks to its onboard voltage regulator, ensuring compatibility with various microcontroller platforms, including Arduino and Raspberry Pi. It features a full-scale measurement range of ±3g with a typical sensitivity of 300mV/g, providing accurate and reliable acceleration data. The module’s compact design and ease of integration make it an ideal choice for projects requiring precise acceleration measurements.
