/* Example code to talk to a MPU9250 MEMS accelerometer and gyroscope.
   Ignores the magnetometer, that is left as a exercise for the reader.

   This is taking to simple approach of simply reading registers. It's perfectly
   possible to link up an interrupt line and set things up to read from the
   inbuilt FIFO to make it more useful.

   NOTE: Ensure the device is capable of being driven at 3.3v NOT 5v. The Pico
   GPIO (and therefor SPI) cannot be used at 5v.

   You will need to use a level shifter on the I2C lines if you want to run the
   board at 5v.

   Connections on Raspberry Pi Pico board and a generic MPU9250 board, other
   boards may vary.

   GPIO 4 (pin 6) MISO/spi0_rx-> ADO on MPU9250 board
   GPIO 5 (pin 7) Chip select -> NCS on MPU9250 board
   GPIO 6 (pin 9) SCK/spi0_sclk -> SCL on MPU9250 board
   GPIO 7 (pin 10) MOSI/spi0_tx -> SDA on MPU9250 board
   3.3v (pin 36) -> VCC on MPU9250 board
   GND (pin 38)  -> GND on MPU9250 board

   Note: SPI devices can have a number of different naming schemes for pins. See
   the Wikipedia page at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_Peripheral_Interface
   for variations.
   The particular device used here uses the same pins for I2C and SPI, hence the
   using of I2C names
