Hi,
Here is the code to get raw data from ITG3200. I got reading from ITG3200 for 3 minutes, but the data corrupted after that. Later, I found that endTransmission always return non-zero (itgWrite returns 2, itgRead returns 1). Is this normal? How could I fix this?
Thank you,
Jason

This code is public domain buy you buy me a beer if you use this and we meet someday (Beerware license).
To use this example code, attach:
Arduino : ITG-3200 Breakout
3.3V : VDD
3.3V : VIO
GND : GND
SDA : A4
SCL : A5
Load the sketch and open the serial window at 9600 bps. Arduino will output the raw X,Y and Z axis data being read from the gyroscope.
