BOOSTXL-SENSORS Sensors BoosterPack Plug-in
The Sensors BoosterPack™ kit (BOOSTXL-SENSORS) is an easy-to-use plug-in module for adding digital
sensors to your LaunchPad™ development kit design. SimpleLink™ microcontroller (MCU) LaunchPad
development kit developers can use this BoosterPack plug-in module to start developing sensor
applications using the onboard gyroscope, accelerometer, magnetometer, pressure, ambient temperature,
humidity, ambient light, and infrared temperature sensors.
