MPU6050 sensor module is complete 6-axis Motion Tracking Device. It combines 3-axis Gyroscope, 3-axis Accelerometer and Digital Motion Processor all in small package. Also, it has additional feature of on-chip Temperature sensor. It has I2C bus interface to communicate with the micro controllers.
It has Auxiliary I2C bus to communicate with other sensor devices like 3-axis Magnetometer, Pressure sensor etc.If 3-axis Magnetometer is connected to auxiliary I2C bus, then MPU6050 can provide complete 9-axis Motion Fusion output.
This voltage is digitized using 16-bit ADC to sample each axis.The full-scale range of output are +/- 250, +/- 500, +/- 1000, +/- 2000.It measures the angular velocity along each axis in degree per second unit.
