SparkFun 9DoF IMU Breakout - ICM-20948 (Qwiic & GPIO)
The SparkFun 9DoF IMU Breakout integrates the TDK InvenSense ICM-20948 motion sensor with a SAMD21 microcontroller, offering a complete, programmable motion-sensing module compatible with Arduino via USB and the Qwiic ecosystem for solderless I2C connection.
Features
- Features the TDK InvenSense ICM-20948 9-axis IMU (3-axis gyro, 3-axis accel, 3-axis mag) with integrated Digital Motion Processor (DMP).
- Includes an onboard SAMD21 ARM Cortex-M0+ microcontroller for data processing, logging, and Arduino programmability.
- Equipped with a Qwiic connector for solderless I2C daisy-chaining and standard 0.1″ GPIO pins for breadboard compatibility.
- Onboard microSD card socket and LiPo battery charger enable standalone data logging and portable operation.
- Pre-loaded with example firmware for streaming raw sensor data, quaternions, and Euler angles.

This breakout board provides a comprehensive motion-sensing solution by pairing the low-power, high-performance ICM-20948 MEMS IMU with a programmable SAMD21 microprocessor. The ICM-20948 handles precise inertial measurement with configurable full-scale ranges for its accelerometer and gyroscope, while its onboard Digital Motion Processor offloads complex sensor fusion algorithms from the host microcontroller, improving system efficiency.
The module is designed for rapid prototyping and integration, featuring both the solderless SparkFun Qwiic connector system and traditional 0.1″-spaced header pins. The integrated SAMD21 can be programmed via the onboard USB-C connector using the Arduino IDE, allowing for custom firmware development, real-time data streaming, or autonomous logging of sensor data to the microSD card.
