Adafruit H3LIS331 Ultra High Range Triple-Axis Accelerometer - STEMMA QT / Qwiic
The Adafruit H3LIS331 is an ultra-high-range triple-axis accelerometer capable of measuring up to ±400g across all three axes. Part of the ST LIS331 family, it's designed for applications where standard ±16g accelerometers aren't enough — from high-impact testing and industrial machinery monitoring to rocket and high-speed vehicle projects.
The breakout board comes in the STEMMA QT form factor with Qwiic-compatible I²C connectors on both sides for solderless daisy-chaining. All pins are also broken out to standard headers, and on-board voltage regulation and level shifting support both 3.3V and 5V systems. The sensor communicates over I²C or SPI.
Key Features
- ±400g Measurement Range – Ultra-high range across three axes for extreme acceleration sensing
- Configurable High-Pass and Low-Pass Filters – Built-in filters to tailor readings to your application
- Adjustable Data Rates – Control measurement frequency to match your power budget
- I²C and SPI Interfaces – Flexible connectivity options
- STEMMA QT / Qwiic Connectors – Solderless I²C connection, compatible with SparkFun Qwiic ecosystem
- 3.3V and 5V Compatible – On-board voltage regulator and level shifting
- Arduino and CircuitPython Libraries – Ready-to-use driver support with example code
Ideal For
- High-impact and shock measurement applications
- Rocketry and high-speed vehicle telemetry
- Industrial vibration and machinery monitoring
- Sports science and crash testing instrumentation
