The MPU-60X0 is the world’s first 9-axis IMU motion processing sensor. It integrates a 3-axis MEMS gyroscope, a 3-axis MEMS accelerometer, and an expandable Digital Motion Processor (DMP). Through the I2C interface, it can connect to a third-party digital sensor, such as a magnetometer. Once expanded, it can output 9-axis signals via its I2C or SPI interface (SPI is only available on the MPU-6000). Additionally, the MPU-60X0 can connect to non-inertial digital sensors, such as pressure sensors, via its I2C interface.
The MPU-60X0 uses three 16-bit ADCs each for the gyroscope and accelerometer, converting analog measurements into digital outputs. To accurately track both fast and slow motions, the measurement ranges are user-configurable: the gyroscope ranges are ±250, ±500, ±1000, and ±2000°/s (dps), while the accelerometer ranges are ±2g, ±4g, ±8g, and ±16g.
A 1024-byte onboard FIFO helps reduce system power consumption. Communication with all device registers is performed via a 400kHz I2C interface or a 1MHz SPI interface (SPI is only available on the MPU-6000). For high-speed data transfer applications, register reads and interrupts are supported at up to 20MHz via SPI. Additionally, the chip includes an integrated temperature sensor and an oscillator with only ±1% drift under operating conditions.
