Overview

The BOOSTXL-SENSORS BoosterPack™ plug-in module is an easy way to add digital sensors to your LaunchPad™ development kit design. MCU developers can use this BoosterPack module to start developing sensor applications using the on-board gyroscope, accelerometer, magnetometer, pressure, temperature, humidity and ambient light sensors.

Features
  • TI OPT3001 Ambient light sensor
  • PCB footprint to add TI TMP007 Infrared temperature sensor
  • Bosch BMI160 Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) sensor – accelerometer and gyroscope
  • Bosch BMM150 Magnetometer
  • Bosch BME280 Environmental sensor - pressure, ambient temperature and humidity
  • Works with TI LaunchPad

  • BOOSTXL-SENSORS BoosterPack Plug-In Module
  • Quick Start Guide
