MPU-6050 Clipping?

Post by flyboy »

I am guessing it is a bad MPU-6050, but has anybody seen where the sensor wave forms are clipped and look like steps instead of smooth curves? Take a look at the picture attached. The controller fails gyro calibration. I have three controllers all the same and look correct, but this is the only one displaying clipped signals. I am seeing a ton of I2C errors on MW Gui.

Throw it in the trash. That wave form picture looks like the old endless lines I had on my van in the 70's. I2C errors are never a good sign.

It died on the operating table. The remains have been donated in the name of science as a practice board.
