MPU6050 accelerometer gyroscope and temperature sensor driver
Article Directory
In this article, I will introduce how to use ESP32 to drive the MPU-6050 accelerometer, gyroscope sensor module. The MPU6050 sensor is used to measure acceleration, temperature, displacement and angular velocity. It is equipped with a 6-axis motion tracking sensor integrated inside the MPU6050 chip. Data transfer takes place via the I2C protocol.
1. Introduction to MPU6050
The MPU6050 sensor contains a digital motion that performs all the complex processing, calculations and provides sensor data output to other MCUs via I2C communication. It is widely used to measure the health and operating parameters of various machines. It is also used in robotics and motion sensor applications. The sensor is based on MEMS (Micro Mechanical Systems) technology and therefore very compact and accurate at certain frequencies. It has relatively small size and low power consumption. It communicates with other microcontrollers and sensors via I2C communication
The sensor consists of a three-axis accelerometer, a three-axis gyroscope, and a built-in temperature sensor. All of these exist on a single chip. The module takes into account the x, y and z channels simultaneously because it
