Measuring Acceleration, Tilt, Rotation and Vibration with Arduino

           Acceloremeter MEMSIC 2125 is used to review the measure acceleration, tilt, rotation and combined quantity BY Jatropha + - 3 g. 2125 MEMSIC accelerometer is electrically compatible WITH Another popular. MEMSIC SUPPLY I / O to review Connection To breadboard prototype through holes WITH Easy.

Schematic WITH THE Arduino can Judging the image below:
