Arduino and IMU Fusion Board (ADXL345 & IMU3000)

Here is an example of how one might wire sparkfuns’ IMU Fusion Board with an Arduino Mega

you’ll need:

• [4] 10k resistors
• [2] MOSFET Transistors (2N7000)

The Transistors are to translate between 3.3 and 5 volts, unless you have a 3.3 board in which case you won’t need to do this.

and the main thing is that you plug into the I²C ports (SDA and SCL) on the mega and analog input pins A4 (SDA) and A5 (SCL) on other boards like Diecimila.

also there is an adruino script from Hobby Electronics  to output the values, and that’s it! Comment and let me know if you found this useful.
