It used to kind of work and give me false readings but after soldering it to some headers my Arduino Nano couldn't connect to it at all. I might have connected vcc and gnd with my crappy soldering
However the issue remained after fixing the solder. Plus I never saw the onboard led light up even before soldering. Did I totally kill my board or is there another issue elsewhere?
Wiring: 5v -> Vcc
Gnd -> Gnd
Scl -> A5
Sda -> A4
Code: (I found it online)`
#include <Adafruit_MPU6050.h>
#include <Adafruit_Sensor.h>
#include <Wire.h>
Adafruit_MPU6050 mpu;
void setup(void) {
Serial.begin(115200);
Serial.println("test");
// Try to initialize!
if (!mpu.begin()) {
Serial.println("Failed to find MPU6050 chip");
while (1) {
delay(10);
}
}
Serial.println("MPU6050 Found!");
// set accelerometer range to +-8G
mpu.setAccelerometerRange(MPU6050_RANGE_8_G);
// set gyro range to +- 500 deg/s
mpu.setGyroRange(MPU6050_RANGE_500_DEG);
// set filter bandwidth to 21 Hz
mpu.setFilterBandwidth(MPU6050_BAND_21_HZ);
delay(100);
}
void loop() {
/* Get new sensor events with the readings */
sensors_event_t a, g, temp;
mpu.getEvent(&a, &g, &temp);
/* Print out the values */
Serial.print("Acceleration X: ");
Serial.print(a.acceleration.x);
Serial.print(", Y: ");
Serial.print(a.acceleration.y);
Serial.print(", Z: ");
Serial.print(a.acceleration.z);
Serial.println(" m/s^2");
Serial.print("Rotation X: ");
Serial.print(g.gyro.x);
Serial.print(", Y: ");
Serial.print(g.gyro.y);
Serial.print(", Z: ");
Serial.print(g.gyro.z);
Serial.println(" rad/s");
Serial.print("Temperature: ");
Serial.print(temp.temperature);
Serial.println(" degC");
Serial.println("");
delay(500);
}`
