Microchip Technology’s MM7150 Motion Module combines the SSC7150 motion co-processor combined with 9-axis sensors, including accelerometer, magnetometer and gyroscope in a small, easy to use form factor. With a I2C connection to most MCUs/MPUs, embedded applications can tap into the module’s advanced motion and position data. The MM7150 Motion Module is well suited for a wide range of embedded, industrial, consumer electronics, and other applications. The motion module contains Microchip’s SSC7150 motion co-processorl which is pre-programmed with sensor fusion algorithms designed to filter, compensate, and combine the raw sensor data to provide highly accurate position and orientation information. The small form factor module is self-calibrating during operation utilizing data from the pre-populated sensors.
