{"product_id":"msa301-3dof-motion-sensor-breakout","title":"MSA301 3DoF Motion Sensor Breakout","description":"\u003cp\u003eA simple 3 Degrees of Freedom accelerometer breakout that measures acceleration in three axes - X, Y, and Z. If you need simple and reliable motion detection for your project, then this is a great choice!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis accelerometer has a few nifty features built-in too. It has interrupts for motion in each axis, double-tap detection, and freefall detection. This built-in support means that you can detect each of these types of motion with a single line of code, rather than having to code a whole function yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MSA301 3DoF breakout has an I2C interface and is 3.3V or 5V compatible.
