3-Space™ Nano Carrier Board
The 3-Space™ Nano Carrier Board mounts the Yost Labs Nano IC on a castellated surface-mount module, simplifying integration into custom PCBs. It combines triaxial gyroscope, accelerometer, and magnetometer sensing with onboard QGRAD2 processing to provide filtered orientation at up to 200 Hz.
SPI, I2C, and asynchronous serial interfaces provide access to orientation and sensor data. Onboard magnetometer auto-calibration, tunable filtering, and oversampling allow developers to configure the sensor for their application. The module is also available as part of the Nano Evaluation Kit for USB-connected testing and development.
