Hi, i want to read data from BMA180..
So far, i find this code to read data from BMA180:

Code:

//BMA 180 demo, from: http://www.electrodragon.com/?p=3660
#include <Wire.h>
 
void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(115200);
  Wire.begin();
 
  Serial.println("Demo started, initializing sensors");
 
  AccelerometerInit();
 
  Serial.println("Sensors have been initialized");
}
 
void AccelerometerInit()
{
  Wire.beginTransmission(0x40); // address of the accelerometer
  // reset the accelerometer
  Wire.write(0x10);
  Wire.write(0xB6);
  Wire.endTransmission();
  delay(10);
 
  Wire.beginTransmission(0x40); // address of the accelerometer
  // low pass filter, range settings
  Wire.write(0x0D);
  Wire.write(0x10);
  Wire.endTransmission();
 
  Wire.beginTransmission(0x40); // address of the accelerometer
  Wire.write(0x20); // read from here
  Wire.endTransmission();
  Wire.requestFrom(0x40, 1);
  byte data = Wire.read();
  Wire.beginTransmission(0x40); // address of the accelerometer
  Wire.write(0x20);
  Wire.write(data & 0x0F); // low pass filter to 10 Hz
  Wire.endTransmission();
 
  Wire.beginTransmission(0x40); // address of the accelerometer
  Wire.write(0x35); // read from here
  Wire.endTransmission();
  Wire.requestFrom(0x40, 1);
  data = Wire.read();
  Wire.beginTransmission(0x40); // address of the accelerometer
  Wire.write(0x35);
  Wire.write((data & 0xF1) | 0x04); // range +/- 2g
  Wire.endTransmission();
}
 
void AccelerometerRead()
{
  Wire.beginTransmission(0x40); // address of the accelerometer
  Wire.write(0x02); // set read pointer to data
  Wire.endTransmission();
  Wire.requestFrom(0x40, 6);
 
  // read in the 3 axis data, each one is 16 bits
  // print the data to terminal
  Serial.print("Accelerometer: X = ");
  short data = Wire.read();
  data += Wire.read() << 8;
  Serial.print(data);
  Serial.print(" , Y = ");
  data = Wire.read();
  data += Wire.read() << 8;
  Serial.print(data);
  Serial.print(" , Z = ");
  data = Wire.read();
  data += Wire.read() << 8;
  Serial.print(data);
  Serial.println();
}
 
void loop()
{
  AccelerometerRead();
 
  delay(500); // slow down output
}

address of accelerometer is 0x40, but i still confused with other address, like:
0x10
0xB6
0x0D
0x10
0x20
0x0F
0x35
0xF1
0x04

I try to read the BMA180 Datasheet, but did'nt find the explanation..
Can anyone help me?

Thak You..

but i still confused with other address, like:

Those are not addresses. They are data.
