Description

• The ADXL345 is a compact, thin, low-power, 3-axis accelerometer capable of high-resolution (13-bit) measurement at up to ±16 g. It measures acceleration along X, Y, and Z axes.
• The GY-291 module integrates the ADXL345 sensor with voltage regulation and level shifting, making it compatible with both 3.3V and 5V microcontroller platforms such as Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other development boards.
• It communicates through the I²C interface, allowing simple and efficient multi-device communication over a shared bus. Due to its small size, low power consumption, and high accuracy, the module is well-suited for motion sensing, gesture recognition, tilt detection, robotics, and wearable technology applications.
