Evaluation Tools
| Evaluation Boards | Overview | Data Sheet | |
|---|---|---|---|
| M-G32EV041 |  |
This optional evaluation board allows you to control our sensor via USB from your PC. It simplifies the initial evaluation of the sensor. The device is powered directly through USB, so no external power supply is required. Sensing data output from the IMU is provided via UART. |  |
| M-G32EV031 |  |
This optional evaluation board enables control of our sensor from your system board via pin connections. By properly connecting the pins, you can access sensor output; however, an external power supply is required. The IMU output is available via UART or SPI, selectable through pin configuration. | |
