  • The most well-known 6-axis IMU that you see a lot of its breakout in the market

  • The production of this chip stopped unfortunately so we can’t keep buying this chip anymore, ICM 20602 is the new replacement to the MPU 6000(also out of date)

  • It has the same hardware named MPU6000 with additional SPI

  • Reviews of this breakout board’s accuracy are generally negative, but the performance of the chip is recognized by many UAV use

  • Sounds like the breakout board has an uneven quality

  • Adafruit has pretty detailed how-to-use instruction:https://learn.adafruit.com/mpu6050-6-dof-accelerometer-and-gyro?view=all

  • Outweigh the performance of other chips:

Summary

  • LSM6DOSX is my favourite 6-axis IMU chip of all chips so far. Newer technology is implemented on this chip, and it is well-documented, the performance sounds promising

  • BNO055 breakout board is the most easy to use breakout board since it has on-board data processing. Make this board stand out in the non-Arduino/Raspberry Pi development scenario.

  • MPU6000, ICM 2094820602, and BMI270 are all good traditional chips
