ADXL345 Accelerometer Module Features ADXL345 accelerometer sensor can measure angle orientation and object path. The sensor can do that in three X, Y and Z axes. It can also measure dynamic and static acceleration forces. Dynamic acceleration force is due to motion and vibration and static acceleration is caused by gravity. The sensitivity range of the ADXL345 accelerometer sensor is from +-2g to +-16g. (g is approximately 9.8) For example, when this sensor is placed on a flat surface, its value is +1...

VL53L0X Distance Sensor Features The VL53L0X sensor is a laser rangefinder. First, the sensor sends a laser pulse, and the distance from object to the sensor is estimated by measuring the travel time of the laser pulse. Due to the very high speed of light, this sensor is not used in applications less than a millimeter. This module can measure a maximum distance of 2 meters. The operating voltage is 2.8 to 5 volts and it uses the I2C protocol to communicate with the microcontroller. You can down...

I2C 16x2 Character LCD Features The 16x2 character LCD has two rows with the ability to display 16 ASCII characters on each row. Normal 16x2 character LCDs use 7 digital pins, while this module with I2C interface has reduced this number to 2 pins. A potentiometer is also included to adjust the display contrast. These LCDs have many applications and are used in cases such as: copiers and fax machines, laser printers, industrial testing tools, etc. You can download the d...

TB6612FNG Dual Motor Driver Features Today, controlling the speed and direction of DC motors is very important due to their many applications. The most common method of controlling DC motors is the H-Bridge. This method allows you to control both the speed and the direction of the engine. The TB6612FNG dual module uses the same method to control two motors.One of the control pins of this module is PWM. This pin is connected to the gate of the transistor. The longer the duty cycle, the higher the voltag...
