I2C sensors 

Several sensors are connected through a single I2C bus.  

3.5.1

 

Environmental sensor 

A BME280 environmental sensor from Bosch measures relative humidity, barometric pressure, and 
ambient temperature. On the I2C bus, it is assigned the address 0x76. The BME280 data sheet is 
available at referenc

3.5.2

 

Accelerometer 

A LIS2DH12TR accelerometer from ST Microelectronics measures movement in three axes. Scales of 
±2, ±4, ±8, and ±16 gauss may be selected. One interrupt output is connected to NORA-B1. On the 
I2C bus, it is assigned the address 0x19. The LIS2DH12TR data sheet is available at referenc

3.5.3

 

Magnetometer 

A LIS3MDL magnetometer from ST Microelectronics measures magnetic fields in three axes. Scales 
of ±4, ±8, ±12, and ±16 gauss may be selected. An optional interrupt may be connected to NORA-B1 
by soldering across the jumper NO4 and cutting jumper NC7. On the I2C bus, it is assigned address 
0x1E. The LIS3MDL data sheet is available at referenc

3.5.4

 

Gyroscope 

A FXAS21002 gyroscope from NXP Semiconductor senses yaw, pitch, and roll of the XPLR-IOT-1. Full 
scale ranges are adjustable from ±250°/s. to ±2000°/sec. An optional interrupt may be connected to 
NORA-B1 by soldering across the jumper NO5 and cutting jumper NC7. On the I2C bus, it is assigned 
address 0x20. The FXAS21002 data sheet is available at referenc
