Product details
Overview
STEVAL-MKI197V1 from STMicroelectronics is a DIL24 socket-compatible adapter board for the LSM6DSOX 6-axis IMU, providing full pin access, on-board VDD decoupling capacitors, and direct plug-in capability for rapid prototyping and sensor evaluation.
For engineers reviewing the STEVAL-MKI197V1 datasheet, STEVAL-MKI197V1 pinout, STEVAL-MKI197V1 application, or STEVAL-MKI197V1 equivalent, this board enables immediate integration with STEVAL-MKI109V3 and STEVAL-MKI109D MEMS development platforms and supports ST's MEMS Studio GUI for real-time sensor data visualization and firmware customization.
Technical Context
The STEVAL-MKI197V1 implements a passive breakout architecture with no active logic or signal conditioning - it routes all 24 pins of the LSM6DSOX in standard DIL24 footprint without level shifting, voltage regulation, or embedded microcontroller. Power delivery is limited to VDD (1.71–3.6 V) and VDDIO (1.71–3.6 V) lines with integrated ceramic decoupling.
It serves exclusively as a mechanical and electrical interface between the LSM6DSOX and host evaluation platforms, requiring external MCU-based bridge functionality (e.g., STM32F401VE on STEVAL-MKI109V3) for SPI/I²C communication, register configuration, and data streaming to PC.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Board Type | Passive adapter board - no active components, no firmware, no power conversion. |
| Target Device | LSM6DSOX 6-axis IMU (3-axis accelerometer + 3-axis gyroscope with embedded machine learning core). |
| Socket Interface | Standard DIL24 socket footprint - enables direct insertion into compatible carrier boards. |
| Power Support | VDD and VDDIO decoupled via onboard 100 nF ceramic capacitors - eliminates need for external bypassing during evaluation. |
| Compatibility | Fully interoperable with STEVAL-MKI109V3 and STEVAL-MKI109D motherboard platforms for MEMS sensor evaluation. |

FAQ
Does STEVAL-MKI197V1 include an onboard microcontroller or firmware?
No. The board contains only passive components: routing traces, solder pads, and two 100 nF decoupling capacitors. All sensor communication, register access, and data processing must be handled externally via a compatible host platform such as STEVAL-MKI109V3 or custom MCU-based system using SPI or I²C.
Can STEVAL-MKI197V1 operate independently without STEVAL-MKI109V3 or STEVAL-MKI109D?
No. It lacks power regulation, USB interface, and host processor - it functions solely as a breakout adapter. Operation requires connection to a supported motherboard that provides power, clock, communication bridge (e.g., STM32F401VE), and PC connectivity for MEMS Studio or custom software interaction.
What voltage levels does STEVAL-MKI197V1 support for the LSM6DSOX?
The board routes VDD (1.71–3.6 V) and VDDIO (1.71–3.6 V) directly to the LSM6DSOX pins without translation. Users must ensure the host platform supplies compliant voltages - no onboard LDO or level shifter is present, and mismatched supply can damage the sensor.
Is STEVAL-MKI197V1 RoHS and WEEE compliant?
Yes. As stated in the official ST documentation (DB3721 Rev 2), the board meets both RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU and WEEE Directive 2012/19/EU requirements, with lead-free finish and compliant materials throughout the PCB assembly.
