Sense.I.6P8
high-precision 6-DOF IMU
The Sense.I.6P is a precision 6-DOF inertial measurement unit based on the TDK Invensense ICM-42688P. The 16-bit accelerometer full-scale range can be set to +/- 2g, 4g, 8g, or 16g with an output data rate of up between 1.5Hz and 32kHz, while the 16-bit gyro range can be set to +/- 15.6, 31.5, 62.5, 125, 250, 500, 1000, or 2000 degrees per second with an output data rate of 12.5Hz and 32kHz. The sensor includes a user-programmable filters, on-board motion functions (pedometer, tilt, tap, raise, etc.), and a 2kB FIFO. This IMU is functionally very similar to the Sense.I.6P6, which has higher maximum ranges (32g and 4000 degrees per second) but with slightly higher gyro noise and worse temperature stability.
