# GY521
Arduino library for I2C GY521 accelerometer-gyroscope sensor a.k.a. MCU-6050.
## Description
Experimental library for GY521 a.k.a. MCU-6050.
Library is work in progress, in fact it is extracted and extended from an old project.
It needs to be tested a lot more.
#### Examples
- calibration example to determine the offsets needed
- example to read values.
- test sketch to test get / set values.
- example to get pitch roll yaw.
- performance sketch.
## Breakout board
From left to right
| pin | pinName | description |
|:----:|:--------|:----------------|
| 0 | VCC | +5V |
| 1 | GND | ground |
| 2 | SCL | I2C clock |
| 3 | SDA | I2C data |
| 4 | XDA | auxiliary data | see datasheet
| 5 | XCL | auxiliary clock | see datasheet
| 6 | AD0 | address |
| 7 | INT | interrupt |
#### Address
AD0 connected to GND => 0x68
AD0 connected to VCC => 0x69
## Calibration (short version for now)
1. load and run calibration example
it shows a header containing 6 numbers and 10 lines of 8 numbers
1. wait until the middle 6 of the longer lines stabilize (should all be 0)
1. copy the 6 numbers above the axe aye aze as these are the numbers needed.
## Interface
### Constructor
- **GY521(uint8_t address = 0x69, , TwoWire \*wire = &Wire)** Constructor with default address.
0x68 is also a valid address. The wire argument is optional to select Wire1 Wire2 etc. on some boards.
- **bool begin(uint8_t sda, uint8_t scl)** begin for ESP32 et al. Returns true if address can be found on I2C bus.
- **bool begin()** Returns true if address can be found on I2C bus.
- **bool isConnected()** returns true if device can be found on I2C bus.
- **void reset()** set all internal values to 0 and throttle time to 10 ms.
- **bool wakeUp()** idem.
### Throttle
- **void setThrottle(bool throttle = true)** throttle to force "delay" between reads.
- **bool getThrottle()** returns true if throttle mode is set.
- **void setThrottleTime(uint16_t ti )** throttle time in milliseconds, max = 65535 = 1++ minute
- **uint16_t getThrottleTime()** returns throttle time set.
### READ
#### Set before read
- **bool setAccelSensitivity(uint8_t as)** as = 0, 1, 2, 3 ==> 2g 4g 8g 16g
- **uint8_t getAccelSensitivity()** returns 0, 1, 2, 3
- **bool setGyroSensitivity(uint8_t gs)** gs = 0,1,2,3 ==> 250, 500, 1000, 2000 degrees/second
- **uint8_t getGyroSensitivity()** returns 0, 1, 2, 3
#### Actual read
- **int16_t read()** returns status = GY521_OK on success.
- **int16_t readAccel()** read accelerometer only to speed up interaction. This call does update the throttle timer.
returns status = GY521_OK on success.
- **int16_t readGyro()** read gyroscope only to speed up interaction. This call does update the throttle timer.
returns status = GY521_OK on success.
Note: for pitch roll yaw you need to call **read()**.
- **int16_t readTemperature()** read temperature only, does **not** update the throttle timer.
returns status = GY521_OK on success.
- **uint32_t lastTime()** last time sensor is actually read. In milliseconds. Not updated by readTemperature().
Since version 0.3.8 the **read()** and **readGyro()** function is updated to keep the range of **getPitch()**,
**getRoll()** and **getYaw()** in the range 0..360 degrees. (Issue #36).
Problem is that with continuous roatation in a same direction internal variables will overflow and new
movements (angles) will get lost as insignificant digits.
#### Call after read
Note that multiple calls will return the same value. One must explicitly call **read()** to get new values.
- **float getAccelX()** idem
- **float getAccelY()** idem
- **float getAccelZ()** idem
- **float getAngleX()** idem
- **float getAngleY()** idem
- **float getAngleZ()** idem
- **float getTemperature()** idem
- **float getGyroX()** idem
- **float getGyroY()** idem
- **float getGyroZ()** idem
- **float getPitch()** idem. Returns 0.00 - 359.99.
- **float getRoll()** idem. Returns 0.00 - 359.99.
- **float getYaw()** idem. Returns 0.00 - 359.99.
### Register access
Read the register PDF for the specific value and meaning of registers.
- **uint8_t setRegister(uint8_t reg, uint8_t value)**
- **uint8_t getRegister(uint8_t reg)**
## documents
- check details - MPU-6000-Register-Map1.pdf
## Operation
See examples, use with care
## Future
**Should**
- test test and test ...(ESP too)
- improve documentation
- look for maths optimizations (atan, hypot, performance)
**Could**
- calibrate function in the lib ? (think not as lib might grow?)
- calibrate sketch could print code snippet to include...
