MPU6050: Invensense Motion Tracking Device
##########################################

Description
***********

This sample application periodically (0.5 Hz) measures the sensor
temperature, acceleration, and angular velocity, displaying the values
on the console along with a timestamp since startup.

When triggered mode is enabled the measurements are displayed at the
rate they are produced by the sensor.

Wiring
*******

This sample uses an external breakout for the sensor.  A devicetree
overlay must be provided to identify the I2C bus and GPIO used to
control the sensor.

Building and Running
********************

After providing a devicetree overlay that specifies the sensor location,
build this sample app using:

.. zephyr-app-commands::
   :zephyr-app: samples/sensor/mpu6050
   :board: nrf52dk/nrf52832
   :goals: build flash
