Post by raph38130 »

Hi crazyflier,

why is there this ak8963 compass log in crazyflie 2.O ? maybe only a firmware log due to CF1 compatibility ?
there is a compass in mpu 9250 ...
can't find this IC on schematics : U1 EEPROM U9 gyro/accel/comp U10 pressure sensor ???

thanks

The chip is simply integrated into the MPU 9250. The InvenSense website is fairly sparse, but you can find it when you look through the datasheet (http://www.invensense.com/mems/gyro/doc ... 50A-00.pdf, page 47).

The info on the MPU-9250 is here.
The direct link to the data sheet is here.
