Accelerometer Three-axis Sensor Module GY-61 ADXL335

The GY-61 ADXL335 is a compact, low-power 3-axis analog accelerometer module built around the Analog Devices ADXL335 sensor. Designed for measuring both static (e.g., gravity) and dynamic (e.g., motion, vibration) acceleration, it outputs analog voltages proportional to acceleration along the X, Y, and Z axes. The onboard 3.3V voltage regulator allows the module to be powered with either 3.3V or 5V, making it suitable for a wide range of microcontroller systems such as Arduino.

Package Includes:

  • 1 x GY-61 ADXL335 3-Axis Accelerometer Module
  •  Male Header Pins (for soldering)

Calibration Tips:

  • When flat: Z-axis ≈ 1g; X and Y ≈ 0g
  • Rotate the sensor to calibrate ±1g and 0g for each axis

Arduino Code Example:

const int xpin = A0;
const int ypin = A1;
const int zpin = A2;

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
}

void loop() {
  int x = analogRead(xpin);
  int y = analogRead(ypin);
  int z = analogRead(zpin);

  Serial.print(((float)x - 331.5) / 65 * 9.8); // X-axis in m/s²
  Serial.print("\t");
  Serial.print(((float)y - 329.5) / 68.5 * 9.8); // Y-axis in m/s²
  Serial.print("\t");
  Serial.print(((float)z - 340) / 68 * 9.8); // Z-axis in m/s²
  Serial.println();

  delay(1000);
}

Applications:

  • Tilt and orientation sensing
  • Motion tracking
  • Vibration monitoring
  • Robotics and drones
  • DIY accelerometer-based control systems
