LSM6DSL Pinout – LGA-14L Package

Notes

• NC pins (10, 11): Leave electrically unconnected and soldered to PCB per datasheet note.
• SDx/SCx (pins 2–3): Function depends on communication protocol selected (SPI or I²C).
• CS (pin 12): Used only in SPI mode; should be tied high or low appropriately for I²C operation.
• VDDO (pin 5): Separate digital output supply; may be tied to VDD in single-supply designs.
• Dual interrupt outputs: INT1 and INT2 (pins 4, 9) can be independently configured.

• @ Vdd = 1.8 V, T = 25 °C unless otherwise noted.
