ADXL345 and TCA9548A

Post by yujundimo »

Hello people , i got into a problem
while i do the TCAscan it shows me every I2C sensor connected , once i try any ADXL345 test it says no ADXL found and that i should check the wiring , it's making me crazy for 3days already. Please HELP :(
i have to say that i am pretty new to all this as well

Please post a photo showing your soldering and connections.
Also please post a sample of the TCAscan output.

this one gives me check the wiring feedback

None of those boards are Adafruit boards. You should contact the seller or manufacturer for technical support.

They appear to be connected correctly and responding as confirmed by the scanner code. But we cannot guarantee that our ADXL345 library will work with anything other than the boards it was designed for.
