1.1 Revision History

1.2 Purpose and Scope This document is a preliminary product specification, providing a description, specifications, and design related information on the MPU-6500™ MotionTracking device. The device is housed in a small 3x3x0.90mm QFN package.

Specifications are subject to change without notice. Final specifications will be updated based upon characterization of production silicon. For references to register map and descriptions of individual registers, please refer to the MPU-6500 Register Map and Register Descriptions document.

1.3 Product Overview The MPU-6500 is a 6-axis MotionTracking device that combines a 3-axis gyroscope, 3-axis accelerometer, and a Digital Motion Processor™ (DMP) all in a small 3x3x0.9mm package. It also features a 512-byte FIFO that can lower the traffic on the serial bus interface, and reduce power consumption by allowing the system processor to burst read sensor data and then go into a low-power mode. With its dedicated I2 C sensor bus, the MPU-6500 directly accepts inputs from external I2 C devices. MPU-6500, with its 6-axis integration, onchip DMP, and run-time calibration firmware, enables manufacturers to eliminate the costly and complex selection, qualification, and system level integration of discrete devices, guaranteeing optimal motion performance for consumers. MPU-6500 is also designed to interface with multiple non-inertial digital sensors, such as pressure sensors, on its auxiliary I2 C port.

The gyroscope has a programmable full-scale range of ±250, ±500, ±1000, and ±2000 degrees/sec and very low rate noise at 0.01 dps/√Hz. The accelerometer has a user-programmable accelerometer full-scale range of ±2g, ±4g, ±8g, and ±16g. Factory-calibrated initial sensitivity of both sensors reduces production-line calibration requirements.

Other industry-leading features include on-chip 16-bit ADCs, programmable digital filters, a precision clock with 1% drift from -40°C to 85°C, an embedded temperature sensor, and programmable interrupts. The device features I 2 C and SPI serial interfaces, a VDD operating range of 1.71 to 3.6V, and a separate digital IO supply, VDDIO from 1.71V to 3.6V.

Communication with all registers of the device is performed using either I2 C at 400kHz or SPI at 1MHz. For applications requiring faster communications, the sensor and interrupt registers may be read using SPI at 20MHz

By leveraging its patented and volume-proven CMOS-MEMS fabrication platform, which integrates MEMS wafers with companion CMOS electronics through wafer-level bonding, InvenSense has driven the package size down to a footprint and thickness of 3x3x0.90mm (24-pin QFN), to provide a very small yet high performance low cost package. The device provides high robustness by supporting 10,000g shock reliability.
