mpu6050 interrupt help ?

[koray692]

hello friend ..I want to take data in period 10 ms from the  sensor I check the register map I didnt understand..Sensor has the pin "int" how can I use this pin...which register arrange I am some confused...

[Skimask]

What?

[koray692]

I arrange it   it put "?" insted of "I"

[Skimask]

Still doesn't make sense.

how can I get sample from the mpu6050 sensor at every 10 ms ?(by using interrupt)

That sounds kinda contradictory. Getting data every time interval sounds like polling, and getting data via interrupt is based on an event. Though I haven't worked with that part, so I could be wrong.

It's quite possible to poll a device using a timer interrupt.

The MPU6050 outputs data at 1kHz (when the digital low pass filter is enabled). To make it send data slower you write a division ratio to the SMPLRT_DIV register.

Sample Rate = Gyroscope Output Rate / (1 + SMPLRT_DIV)

To enable the Data Ready interrupt you must set bit 0 (DATA_RDY_EN) in the INT_ENABLE register. You may also need to modify other bits in this register, depending on what type of interrupt signal you want.
