MPU9250 Question #461

Open AbhishekJoshi opened 3 years ago

AbhishekJoshi commented 3 years ago

@kriswiner

Quick question for you, as the datasheet is not clear, and I couldn't find obvious hints.

If I powercycle an MPU9250, will the offset/registers be set to "default"/uncalibrated values?

Do I need to recalibrate my MPU everytime I turn it on?

I'm working on a personal project, I'm trying to determine if I need to recalibrate my MPU every cold boot.

SUPER SORRY if I'm polluting your issues. I know this is meant for real issues, but it seems you're one of the better experts on MPU9250!

Thanks!

The memory in the MPU9250 is volatile, so it will return to the default contents (i.e., 0) on power on. You can store your calibration in arrays in your program or on-board flash, etc.

Hi. Thanks for your response.

From your experience, how often are these MPU's dead from factory on arrival?

I'm working on a project, and sometimes gx is not moving, and other times its gz, or gy.

Depends where you buy from. Reputable sources, never, from China about half the time...

nCS needs to be pulled HIGH to work IIRC...

Last one! Do you have any reputable sources you can recommend?

Thanks!

Maybe look at Sparkfun...I also have a few https://www.tindie.com/products/onehorse/wearable-mpu9250-nano-board/.
