ADXL335 How to wire correctly to the Arduino Mega board

Other Hardware Sensors

Hi there!

I am having many issues trying to connect my Adafruit ADXL 335 accelerometer onto the Arduino Mega board.

There are connections for Vin, 3Vo, GND, Xout, Yout, Zout, and Test. Could someone explain which need to be connected and to where? It seems that every time I try to connect it the SD card serial monitor is just spitting out random numbers so I dont think my accelerometer is wired correctly.

Thank you!

Adafruit is providing a page describing that. Don't connect 3Vo!

You should post the code that behaving like that.
