Introducing the 6DOF IMU 18 Click Board™
Upgrade your system's capabilities with the 6DOF IMU 18 Click Board™, a compact add-on board that features a high-performance 6-axis MotionTracking™ IMU from TDK InvenSense. With its advanced features and easy-to-use interface, this Click board™ is the perfect solution for a wide range of applications, including tilt sensing, navigation, orientation measurement, platform stabilization, robotics, and many more.
High-Performance 6-Axis IMU
The 6DOF IMU 18 Click Board™ is powered by the ICM-42605, a high-performance 6-axis MotionTracking™ IMU from TDK InvenSense. This advanced sensor combines a 3-axis gyroscope and a 3-axis accelerometer, featuring a 2Kb-byte FIFO that can lower the traffic on the serial bus interface (SPI or I2C). The FIFO reduces power consumption by allowing the system processor to burst read sensor data and then go into a low-power mode.
Industry-Leading Feature
The 6DOF IMU 18 Click Board™ also features the industry-leading APEX Motion Processing engine, which provides advanced sensor fusion algorithms, sensor calibration, and data compression. This feature ensures that the Click board™ provides accurate and reliable data in real-time, making it an excellent choice for a wide range of applications.
mikroSDK-Compliant Library
The 6DOF IMU 18 Click Board™ is supported by a mikroSDK-compliant library, which includes functions that simplify software development. This ensures that the Click board™ is easy to integrate into your existing system and provides seamless operation.
Ready-to-Use Product
The 6DOF IMU 18 Click Board™ comes as a fully tested product, ready to be used on a system equipped with the mikroBUS™ socket. This means you can start using the Click board™ right away without any additional setup or configuration.
Upgrade your system today with the 6DOF IMU 18 Click Board™ and experience the benefits of high-performance motion sensing!
Software Support
Software Support
We provide a library for the 6DOF IMU 18 Click Board™ as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroE compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroE development boards.
The package can be downloaded/installed directly from NECTO Studio The package Manager (recommended), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on MikroE Github account.
Library Description
This library contains API for the 6DOF IMU 18 Click Board™ driver.
Key functions
-
c6dofimu18_set_reg_bank6DOF IMU 18 set register bank function. -
c6dofimu18_get_int1_state6DOF IMU 18 read INT1 pin state function. -
c6dofimu18_get_data_from_register6DOF IMU 18 read data function.
Example Description
This library contains API for the 6DOF IMU 18 Click Board™ driver. The library initializes and defines the I2C and SPI bus drivers to write and read data from registers, as well as the default
configuration for reading gyroscope and accelerator data, and temperature.

Additional Notes and Information
Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART Click Board™, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. UART terminal is available in all MikroE compilers.
MIKROSDK
The 6DOF IMU 18 Click Board™ is supported with mikroSDK - MikroE Software Development Kit, which needs to be downloaded from the LibStock and installed for the compiler you are using to ensure proper operation of mikroSDK compliant Click board™ demo applications.
