## Pricing

- **Price:** $13.20 (inc GST) — $12.00 AUD, exc GST

## Availability & dispatch

- Out of stock — the product page offers email notification when it returns.

## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=SEN-29529:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/SEN-29529:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

This SparkFun Micro Triple Axis Accelerometer Breakout is an ultra-small, Qwiic-enabled breakout featuring the LIS3DH, a smart, low-power, three-axis, capacitive micro-machined accelerometer with 12-bit resolution, which you can use to add translation detection to your project. This board is classified as a 3DoF or 3 Degrees of Freedom. Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) can provide additional space location data, such as gyroscopic or magnetometric data. The LIS3DH on this breakout operates under the same principles but offers a few analog inputs to experiment with, and it includes some built-in movement detection capabilities.

This micro version of the Qwiic breakout only supports communication with the LIS3DH over I2C and, due to size constraints, breaks out only one of the accelerometer's interrupt pins, along with a single ground pin, to plated-through-hole (PTH) pins. Users who want to use the LIS3DH over SPI and access all the chip's pins should consider either the standard [LIS3DH Qwiic breakout](https://www.sparkfun.com/sparkfun-triple-axis-accelerometer-breakout-lis3dh.html) or the original [LIS3DH Breakout](https://www.sparkfun.com/sparkfun-triple-axis-accelerometer-breakout-lis3dh.html).
