Library
- Required library: Wire library (included in Arduino IDE by default). This library is used for I2C communication with the built-in acceleration sensor.
Communication Protocol Description
- The Nova board uses I2C communication for interacting with the built-in acceleration sensor (ADXL345B) with a device address of 0x53.
Other Supplementary Information
- A couple reports indicate issues with the bootloader and a solution is to upload the latest leonardo bootloader to Nova. The procedure is simple, requiring only a ISP programmer. plug in the ISP wires and flash the leonardo bootloader onto the nova board again, unbricking the Nova.
- On a side note, beware the battery connector, must be kept away from the pins on board, failing to do so could break the pins or even the controller if shorted. Electric tape on top of the pins could potentially help avoid this problem.
