Re: ADXRS300EB Rate Gyro

Thanks. I wasnt sure which forum to post it until I found the electrical forum. It seems that I can hook it up like this as well:

1) Connect +5V to pin 1 (AVCC)
2) Connect signal to pin 2 (RATEOUT)
3) Connect ground to pin 8 (AGND)
4) Connect +5 to pin 13 (PDD)
5) Connect ground to pin 12 (PGND)

I found this out which I did a search through the forums
Should of done that first. Now the quesion is is 6mA enough (or too much) to drive the sensor???

Cheers ,

Ram
