3-axis ±2–16 g with tap and free-fall detection, Qwiic
The ET-S58 is built around the ST LIS3DH — ±2/4/8/16g, up to 5.3kHz, tap / double-tap / free-fall / 6D orientation, 2µA low-power. It talks over I²C 0x18 / 0x19, 2 interrupts and runs from VIN 3.3–5.5V, onboard LDO + level shifting.
Two Qwiic / STEMMA QT connectors let you chain it with other boards without soldering, and the 2.54 mm header fits a breadboard.
Designed in Dubai by ElectroTrical — the full schematic, BOM and design notes are published below.
Good for
- Tilt and orientation
- Tap-to-wake wearables
- Vibration and drop detection
