Desk of Ladyada - Revisiting some forgotten and 'twinsie' STEMMA QT's
from Adafruit Industries · host Adafruit Industries
#deskofladyada #thegreatsearch #adafruit One of the things we've tried to do lately is 'unify' all our breakout boards and sensors to STEMMA QT so that we have the same shape and size for boards (which makes them mechanically easier to swap). Sometimes we get super lucky and we can even get devices that are mechanically swappable. For example, the BME280/BMP280/DPS310 environmental sensors all share the same pinout. We also remembered our old friend the VL53L1X which shares the same pinout with the VL53L0X, which we got working this week thanks to ST's library. Finally, Analog Devices has thankfully settled on a pinout for their accelerometers, so we QTified it too! The Great Search - High G Accelerometer Replacement for ADXL377 https://www.digikey.com/short/pvhfhwzh We carry all sorts of accelerometers in the Adafruit shop - for many folks, a +-2/4/8/16 or even 32g accelerometer is good enough for detecting motion and tilt. For some rocketry and robotics applications, there's +-100 and +-200g accels available! Sadly, today we learned that the ADXL377 (https://www.adafruit.com/product/1413) is no longer going to be made due to the process being retired. Lets try to find a replacement!
