Hello,
I’ve gotten around to trying out the LinkSprite accelerometer Product code : RB-Lin-32, and I checked the datasheet for the pinouts, but I prefer a pinout of the physical board over a diagram. Is there a picture that shows a top-down view of the pins and their labels? I see the markings on the board but there are 3 with no markings (I’m assuming for a more secure mounting), and I’m not sure if I should be applying 3.3V to the labeled pin or to vss and rather would not power the board until I’m sure.
Thanks
Thanks a lot. Should I put both 3.3V and 5V into Vs and 5Vin respectively or do I only pick the pin I have the correct voltage available for?
Ok thank you for clearing that up.
I don’t know if you guys want to fix it but on the website it states that “the input voltage should be between 1.8 and 3.6V” because there is no on-board regulation. Just wanted to throw that out there.
*nevermind I checked the schematic on the Lilypad board and it shows a resistor/capacitor on the 5V pin
The picture on the product description has all relevant pins labels: RB-Lin-32
X,Y, and Z are the analogue acceleration outputs.
T is a Self-test button that changes the output accelerations in order to make sure the accelerometer is functioning properly.
Vs is a 1.8-3.6V power input pin.
5V is a 5V power input pin.
GND is ground.
You only pic your preferred pin. You do not need to power both.
