Power Pins

Vin - this is the power pin. Since the sensor chip uses 3 VDC, we have included a voltage regulator on board that

will take 3-5VDC and safely convert it down. To power the board, give it the same power as the logic level of

your microcontroller - e.g. for a 5V microcontroller like Arduino, use 5V

3Vo - this is the 3.3V output from the voltage regulator, you can grab up to 100mA from this if you like

GND - common ground for power and logic

I2C Logic Pins

SCL - I2C clock pin, connect to your microcontroller's I2C clock line. This pin is level shifted so you can use 3-5V

logic, and there's a 10K pullup on this pin.

SDA -I2C data pin, connect to your microcontroller's I2C data line. This pin is level shifted so you can use 3-5V

logic, and there's a 10K pullup on this pin.

STEMMA QT (https://adafru.it/Ft4) - These connectors allow you to connectors to dev boards with STEMMA QT

connectors or to other things with various associated accessories (https://adafru.it/Ft6)

Other Pins

INT -This is the interrupt pin. You can setup the MPU-6050 to pull this low when certain conditions are met such

as new measurement data being available. Consult the datasheet and register map (https://adafru.it/GEr) for

usage

AD0 - I2C Address pin. Pulling this pin high or bridging the solder jumper on the back will change the I2C

address from 0x68 to 0x69

FS, SCE, SDE, CLKIN - Pins for advanced users to connect the MPU-6050 to another sensor. Consult the

datasheet and register map (https://adafru.it/GEr) for usage
