The 3-Space™ Nano Carrier Board provides the Nano IC on a castellated surface-mount module for integration into custom electronic assemblies. Triaxial gyroscope, accelerometer, and magnetometer measurements are combined by onboard QGRAD2 processing to deliver filtered orientation at up to 200 Hz.
Orientation and sensor measurements are accessible through SPI, I2C, and asynchronous serial. Tunable filtering, oversampling, and automatic magnetometer calibration provide configuration flexibility. The carrier board is also included in the Nano Evaluation Kit for USB-connected development and testing.
