Description
This Adafruit ADXL345 breakout supplies the three-axis acceleration data required by the Raspberry Pi earthquake-detector project.
Project compatibility
- Use the breakout in I²C mode at the project’s default address,
0x53. - Wire VIN to the Pi’s 3.3 V rail, with SDA and SCL on the standard I²C pins.
- The breakout’s regulator and level shifting make it practical for Pi prototyping.
Before wiring
Secure the sensor rigidly to the surface being monitored; loose wires and a moving breadboard will create false vibration readings. Header pins may require soldering unless you use a compatible STEMMA QT cable.
