Seedduino Stalker + GY-52 MPU-6050

Community General Discussion

Hi,

I know that perhaps this isn't the right forum, but your guys are the largest community.

I'm trying to make a acceleration data logger, the Seeeduino Stalter seems for me the best fit, it already comes with RTC, battery, and SD card reader all build-in.

I managed to get my arduino uno to work with the GY-52 with no issues.

I'm trying to replicate the same in the Stalker with no luck.

I'm using the example for the MPU-6050 and what I get is:

Initializing I2C devices...
Testing device connections...
MPU6050 connection failed

I have tried 3.3V, 5V, some 10k pull-up resistors on the SDA, SCL lines, but it doesn't want to work.

I have tried the Stalker with another I2C sensor and it works...

Does anyone has some ideas?

Thanks in advance..

Did you try the library available from Seeed? Seeeduino Stalker v2.3 | Seeed Studio Wiki

I'm still not in that phase..

I'm just trying to get the Stalker to work with the MPU 6050, dumping values to the Serial Monitor.

I have just used a Arduino Due with the GY-52 and it works!!

what could be the problem....????

Hi all,
I have been stuck at a point in my project for quite some time and I am getting pretty irritated because I think there is some small fix that I cannot figure out. I am working with the MPU 6050 breakout board from sparkfun. https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11028

and the arduino Due. All I am trying to do is obtain the raw data from the accel and gyro sensors. I eventually will need to connect more sensors as well. I have been just using the simple code from the Arduino website.

http://playground.arduino.cc/Main/MPU-6050

Whenever I upload the code I am returned with 6680, 64, 0, 0, 0, 2560 and these values will not change no matter what. I wonder if my connection is off because there is no light that lights up on the sensor as well. I have connected the pins like this:
MPU 6050 DUE
VDD 3.3V
GND GND
INT D 2
SCL SCL 21
SDA SDA
VIO 3.3V

Any help would be very very appreciated! Thanks in advance.
