SPI/I2C dual communication mode
Note: There are two versions of M5StickV currently released by M5Stack. When programming, users need to configure differently according to their corresponding pin mapping. The specific differences are as follows.
-
In the M2StickV circuit design of the I2C single-mode (blue PCB) version, MPU6886 only supports the user to configure its communication mode to I2C, and its pin mapping is SCL-28, SDA-29.
-
In the SPI/I2C dual mode (black PCB) version of the M5StickV circuit design, MPU6886 supports the user to configure its communication mode to SPI or I2C, and its pin mapping is SCL-26, SDA-27., when using, you can switch CS Pin level to switch modes (high level 1 is I2C mode, low level 0 is SPI mode)
-
The specific pin mapping is shown below:
