Hello, I need to run a gyro using SPI and it is advertised (on MPU6050 modules) that MPU6050 can suport SPI BUT in the official datasheat I read that only MPU6000 (out of the MPU60X0 series) does suport SPI. And I havent seen anyone use it using SPI.
Does someone have some expirience with this?
Is there a "cheap" alternative to MPU6050 whitch has SPI supor and is eassy to use with atmega328?
Thanks for help.
Where is it advertised that the MPU-6050 supports SPI ?
By a very unreliable seller at Amazon/Ebay/AliExpress ? Which has translated it wrong; confused the MPU-6500 with the MPU-6050; don't care about customers; don't care about good information; and will tell about anything to make you buy their product ? Stay away from such sellers.
The MPU-6050 does not have SPI.
When you run the ATmega328(P) at 5V, how are you going to connect the SPI bus to a 3.3V sensor ?
This Adafruit module has extra hardware to be able to connect it to a 5V Arduino board: Adafruit LSM6DSO32 6-DoF Accelerometer and Gyroscope [STEMMA QT / Qwiic] : ID 4692 : $12.50 : Adafruit Industries, Unique & fun DIY electronics and kits.
Do you need a accelerometer or a gyro or a magnetometer or all three ?
What is your project about ?
First of all, I cant run ATmega328 at 3.3v configuration as I'm using it as a driver for a small stepper motor.
And I cant use I2C as ATmega328 is going to be a slave for the mainboard.
This is going to be as small device responsible for disconnecting rocket booster and opening parachute at the right moment so I need accelerometer and gyro magnetometer might be also necessary to know the rotation of the rocket but I could get that data from gyro. (it will work fine without it but I want to use it for smaller rocket I won't to lunch with note much preparation just for fun)
I m already lowering SPI voltage for SD card and BMP so the voltage isn't a problem.
I using lever shifter based on this design: https://www.sparkfun.com/products/12009
