Accelerometer ADXL335 with Explore M3 Revision as of 16:37, 20 June 2016 by Sandeep (Talk | contribs) (diff) ← Older revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)

The ADXL335 is an three axis analog accelerometer which outputs raw X, Y and Z axis values on three pins. Let's connect these to the analog input pins on Explore M3 and log the data to the terminal.

Hookup

Explore M3	ADXL335
5v	5v
GND	GND
A3	X axis pin
A2	Y axis pin
A1	Z axis pin

Code

This is a standard Arduino example that I will be using. We will make a tutorial some time later to do some math and put the accelerometer to good use.
