MPU-6500 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The InvenSense MPU-6500 is a highly integrated 6-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) designed for motion tracking applications. It combines a 3-axis gyroscope and a 3-axis accelerometer into a single package, providing digital output for 6-axis MotionFusion data.

 

The gyroscope offers a programmable full-scale range of ±250, ±500, ±1000, and ±2000dps, while the accelerometer features a programmable full-scale range of ±2g, ±4g, ±8g, and ±16g. The device supports both I2C and SPI serial host interfaces, with I2C operating at up to 400kHz and SPI up to 20MHz.

 

Key features include a Digital Motion Processing™ (DMP™) engine that offloads complex sensor fusion and synchronization tasks. It operates with a supply voltage range of 1.71V to 3.6V and has a low operating current. The MPU-6500 is designed for surface mounting and comes in a compact 24-QFN package.

 

This IMU is suitable for a wide range of applications including consumer electronics, mobile devices, and robotics, where accurate motion sensing is critical. Its robust design includes 10,000g shock tolerance.
