Product Overview
The MPU‑6700‑12 is a custom‑built 6‑axis MotionTracking IMU designed for mobile devices. It combines a 3‑axis gyroscope and 3‑axis accelerometer in compact QFN‑16 package, delivering 16‑bit high‑precision sensor output over I2C or SPI. The built‑in DMP offloads motion‑fusion workload from host MCU. This is a special‑order variant without standalone official datasheet.
Core Advantages
High‑Precision 6‑DOF Sensing
Integrated MEMS gyroscope and accelerometer for full 6‑axis motion measurement with low cross‑axis interference.
On‑Chip DMP Acceleration
Hardware DMP handles motion‑fusion, step counting and gesture detection, reducing host‑CPU computing load.
Dual‑Interface Support
Supports I2C up to 400kHz and high‑speed SPI up to 20MHz, compatible with various host hardware designs.
Low‑Power Operation
Multiple power‑saving modes, well‑suited for battery‑powered portable consumer products.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the main function of MPU‑6700‑12?
A: MPU‑6700‑12 is a custom 6‑axis IMU. It measures 3‑axis gyro angular velocity and 3‑axis accelerometer acceleration to output real‑time motion and orientation data.
Q2: What interfaces does MPU‑6700‑12 support?
A: It supports I2C up to 400kHz and SPI up to 20MHz. The SPI function distinguishes it from MPU‑6050 which only supports I2C.
Q3: What does suffix “-12” stand for?
A: “-12” represents Apple customized variant for mobile handsets. There is no standalone official datasheet; please refer to base MPU‑6700 document for reference.
Q4: What is the difference between MPU‑6700‑12 and MPU‑6050?
A: MPU‑6700‑12 adds high‑speed SPI and 1024‑byte FIFO buffer. MPU‑6050 only supports I2C. They are NOT pin‑to‑pin compatible, firmware modification is required for migration.
Q5: Can MPU‑6700‑12 operate at ‑40°C low temperature?
A: Standard operating range: 0°C ~ +70°C. Only certain custom batches support ‑40°C ~ +85°C. Please confirm batch specs before industrial low‑temperature projects.
Q6: Are there pin‑compatible replacement parts?
A: There is no full drop‑in substitute. When selecting alternatives, match package, axis count, supply voltage and interface; host‑side software re‑configuration is required.
Q7: Any handling tips for this MEMS IMU?
A: This device is ESD‑sensitive. Anti‑static measures are required during soldering and assembly to avoid permanent damage.
Q8: Can I get datasheet, CAD files or bulk price?
A: Please submit inquiry form. Note MPU‑6700‑12 has no separate datasheet, we provide MPU‑6700 base reference document for evaluation.
Q9: Why some listings show QFN‑24 for MPU‑6700‑12?
A: Standard MPU‑6700 uses QFN‑24 package. MPU‑6700‑12 custom version adopts QFN‑16. Body size remains 3.0×3.0×0.9mm, but pin‑out differs, cannot direct replace each other.
